Hi /v/,

Is the VITA worth buying?

I love the vita, however I am moving out soon, so I will need to buy one if I wish to play it.

So I'm wondering if there will be any games worth buying beyond the new zero escape game, and Steins;Gate 0, I really can't think of anything.

Thanks /v/

Maybe he meant to say he loves the idea of the Vita?
>>
What genres are you into senpai
>>
>>342344408
get EDF 2 and you're set for the next 200 hours
>>
>>342344527
My previous vita is owned by my brother, I will need to buy my own, I have enjoyed it's games, I'm wondering if there will be any good future releases which will make it worth buying.

>>342344592

I like JRPGs, some visual novels, and some strategy games, for reference, my favourite games have been danganronpa 1/2, Persona 4 Golden, and ZE:VLR.
>>
>>342344791
Got a 3DS?
>>
>>342344878

No I don't, I could buy one if I really wanted to however, but the only game I can think of is the recent fire emblem game.
>>
>>342345214

There's a bunch of JRPGs; SMT IV, Soul Hackers and soon Apocalypse. Also some more well known shit like Bravely.

I actually can't think of Vita SRPGs, but 3DS has DeSu and Fire Emblem.

As for VNs and Danganronpa, maybe phoenix wright?
>>
>>342344408
There's only one game which I consider a must buy on the vita.

Soul Sacrifice Delta. The story, the lore, the narration..... it's a underrated diamond.
>>
>>342345609

>digital only
>>
>>342344408
Do you like Japanese games?

Get a vita.
>>
>>342344408
If you like weeb games from weebland then get a Vita.

It's not like the weebs know how to make good games anyways.
>>
>>342344408
>>342345498
>not owning a PS Vita AND a 3DS
personally, i mainly use my 3DS for pokemon, fire emblem and bravely default
besides that i'm constantly on my Vita
>>
>>342345214
3DS has Virtual Console and can lean on the DS library, which has a bunch of Dragon Quests.
>>
>>342345915

I agree, but given the games OP enjoyed I think he'll get more worth out of a 3DS if forced to choose.
>>
I just wish I pulled the trigger when Dungeon Travelers 2 was on sale a couple of weeks back. I fucking love this genre and played everything on every platform but somehow I wasn't ready to shell out for the game yet. Now I wanna play it. Fugg me :^(
>>
>>342345915
I think it's funny, the older I get (transformation to wizard almost completed here) the more I grow to love handhelds. I agree that 3DS and Vita is the best combo. I fucking love handhelds so god damn much holy shit. I hope these two weren't the last ones we get though..
>>
>>342345498

I'm not too interested in the grindy dungeon crawlers, I'm interesting in Phoenix Wright however, I need to catch up on the series however. What is DeSu?

>>342345915
>>342345954
>>342346015

Thanks fellas, I will end up buying the 3DS as well, eventually, I think it just needs some more games to get me interested.

>>342345609

I didn't like monster hunter, is this similar?
>>
How much a vita game does usually cost?
>>
Vita > 3DS
>>342346492
40 or less.
>>
>>342346463

SMT Devil Survivor. They're 2 DS games with 3DS remasters. They're SRPGs.

SMT isn't really a dungeon crawler outside of 1,2, Soul Hackers or SJ. There's not much grind in any of them either.

Soul Sac is a MonHun clone, Vita has a bunch of good ones.
>>
>>342346681
SMT on 3DS sucks tho
>>
>>342346698

SMT4 is OK, best as a transitional step between Persona and SMT proper.
Soul Hackers, DeSu 1 and 2 are solid games.
>>
>>342345648
You can bother importing a eng asian copy if you want.
btw this Friday there are going to be flash sales
>>
>>342347183

US only?
>>
>>342347221
Yep, US only.
>>342345954
The Vita can lean on his psp library and ps1
>>
>>342346681

I see, if they're not as grindy as I thought they were they should be good games, I will look into them,


I may get a 3DS instead, does anyone know any good upcoming vita releases?

It's more about demon fusion than grind. Early game is difficult but once your party is fleshed out you can roll through the game.

I recommend that you emulate Devil Survivor to get a feel for it if you don't choose the 3DS route, it does seem to be good for you.

I don't know about that, but Odin Sphere Leifthrasir just came out and I love it.
>>
One question about the 3DS, is it region locked? I often import physical copies of vita games from overseas.
>>
>>342347640
Yes.
>>
>>342347640

Yes.
If you were to CFW it that wouldn't matter. You can still update and use all online features if you CFW it. Also piratefaggotry.
>>
>>342347640
You should just hack your 3DS and use a homebrew as soon as you buy one
It removes region lock and you can pirate games with online multiplayer intact and play whatever you want
>>
Just do it op, i was on the fence just like you

Ive only played persona4 so far, but im very satisfied with him

My problem is that i feel guilty playing it at home... With my pc and ps4 waiting for me
>>
>>342348245

this is why I got a PSTV

Also, poorfaggotry.
>>
>>342347640
Why not buy digital?
>>
>>342348393

Nintendo's digital system is shit. I don't think you can make out-of-region accounts.

I just dusted mine off after not playing it for over a year to play Odin Sphere. I still like the thing and I'm interested in some of the upcoming games. If you like weebshit then you should get it.

I loved my vita, but the right control stick started fucking up and it's past the 1 year warranty so I'd have to pay ~$100 to fix it

Don't get a Vita

what about oh, the idea that Vita is portable and a person with a job can play on their commute? Emulation as a replacement is only valid for TV consoles you IDIOT.

>>342351332
Of course it won't, the Vita is now a PS4 accessory
