Its controversial content is to blame.
Edmund McMillen tweeted last night that his title, The Binding of Isaac, won't be published on the 3DS.
If you had some aching desire for portable Ninja Gaiden, your wish is Tecmo's command.
No matter how you want to look at it, Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus is a hard sell. Being the fourth rendition of a game originally released in 2004, chances are if you have an interest in the title you already own it in its proper home console form. If by some off chance you still don't own it, the Vita version probably isn't your best choice, mainly because the excruciatingly difficult game doesn't lend itself to quick burst, portable play, especially with its infrequent save points. If that isn't enough to scare you away, the full retail price surely will.
Jam with the King using the Vita's multi-touch capabilities.
I'm sure the latest port of a Michael Jackson game that has already come out on every system imaginable isn't on the top of your “Vita games to grab at launch” list. But surprisingly enough, it wouldn't be an awful one to occupy said space. I absolutely would not consider myself a fan of the King of Pop's music, but he has some undeniably catchy songs in his extensive catalog that - when paired with The Experience's sharp gameplay- make for an engaging and enjoyable play experience.
Did you know that flash memory-based cartridges could have atrocious loading times? Neither did I.
Rush job releases are pretty commonplace for the launch of a system, but you don’t typically see first party games falling peril to this. ModNation Racers: Road Trip stands in stark contrast to the norm as it carries a wide variety of issues, ranging from slowdown during races, to hefty loading times, to unresponsive menus, and rubber-banding AI.
The surprise announcement reveals sequels rather than the expected Pokemon Grey.
In a surprise announcement, Game Freak, The Pokemon Company, and Nintendo have announced that the latest in the Pokemon series will be a direct sequel to the latest generation of Pokemon games, Black and White. Forgoing the typical "third" game that offers all of the Pokemon found individually in each of the titles, the franchise is breaking new ground with the first direct sequel in the mainline series ever. Both Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 will be coming to the Nintendo DS in Japan this June, with an American release confirmed, but an exact date to be announced.
While only a downloadable title, this is one of the best of the Vita launch.
It's true; I'm in love with Drinkbox Studios' latest effort and PlayStation Vita launch title, Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack. I wish I could point to one individual aspect of the game and say, "that's it, that's why I love this game," but it's not that simple. The aggregation of varied and engaging gameplay, thoughtful puzzles, charm, humor, and even some well-placed Vita-specific features make this game a voyage that every Vita owner should not miss.
