SOON™

It'll be nice to have access to nearly all western-games on the Vita soon. Though I guess we already did this just further seals the deal. Are there even any noteworthy games past 3.65?

SD Gundam G Generation Genesis.

I'd like Darkest Dungeon on the go.

It would be best to wait a few days after it releases in case he doesn't do extensive testing to see if have to make any fixes.

There are currently no games that require 3.67, but it seems like that Super Robot Wars X will.

Time to buy Hacker's Memories. Anyone know if Iconoclasts can be played on 3.65?

Check NPS

Is vita on its last legs in the west? Seems almost drying up even for obscure weebshit

Im a girl btw

It has been for the past 2 years.

I was under the impression system restore could also do it, is that just misinformation? If it's false then yeah, I'll jump right on that.


It's been over a year since the barrier was erected and there have been quite a few new games in that time, I understand SRW V is worth it to at least one user. Also critical is game patches pushing it to need 3.61+ which force you to remain on older versions of a game in some instances. Sadly I expect multiplayer games to address this again, but it'll at least give access to a few features.

Personally I might give the new Bullet Girls a try but that's not a game of quality.

Also Undertale.


Fag enabler.

I don't even know what that's supposed to mean, but Sony announcing it as a legacy platform after not doing shit with it, followed by the PS4 getting games that were supposed to come to the Vita, combined with previously announced games either being cancelled, delayed indefinitely, or brought to PS4 instead, and localizations being far and few in between made it pretty clear that it was on the way out.

Why are you responding to such an obviously crap post? Everyone is aware its overall development is winding down, and the system matters virtually nil West-side. Most of us also don't care since it does some things well especially for Japanese games.

What does this mean?

You need to be on 3.60 to allow you to use the exploit that will let you play 3.65.

Wow it's fucking nothing I'm on 3.61

Why would people who had it working on 3.60 want to update to 3.65 anyway

Because then you have access to all the games up to 3.65.

Exactly. So pretty much for SRW.

Nope, only requires 3.61.

MUVLUV SOON
I hope
I've been waiting 2 years or so now since backing the kickstarter
I just want my codex, Sumika, Takemikazuchi, and physical vita collector's edition.

Yo, where da ports at?

You're not alone man

It's not "fucking nothing" to people who kept to 3.60. Rather it's affirmation that we did the sensible thing in staying on the only version with a known kernel vulnerability. Also there will be fucking something later for you.

Looks kind of cool. I just got Gundam Breaker 3, though.

Whats the difference between operation osaka and operation tokyo?

And here I thought western videogames were bland.

Just show as much you know for the sake of baiting

It wouldn't be as bad if devs didn't blow their loads on the PS3/Wii/360 generation with bad, overbudgeted, malformed games.


nis is generic shit

...

Yes, nis is generic shit given I can spy their design color choices a mile away for their tactical RPGs, even with most of their staff gone due to getting kiked over by management.

Is that translation to "I hate NISA guts because I'm a gaijin who cant into moonrunes"?

NISfags are so delusional.

Oh, the nipfag(s) is still here. Guess I'll check in on this thread in another year, maybe people will be talking about games instead of retarded piracy questions and the guy with enough free time to learn a language then. Again.

Then it’s not generic you stupid cunt.

Where the fuck do you think you are?

Also last time I trusted a localization was EDF2 (from XSeed & PQube), and I got screwed by the lack of 1.01 update present on the jap version (which I bought a year and half later) which is necessary in order to play with the still alive community for the online

It is when all they do is release the same shit over and over again like Spike Chunsoft.

...

Nigger learn english; there is a difference between being stale and being generic.

Are both of the games good or only one of them?

Feel free to choke on Nis dick faggots.

nigger I didn't say anything about the quality of the games, I'm mocking your lack of english skills you low IQ subhuman

I personally found them to be decent, but it's mostly a matter of taste, so please take it with a grain of salt. User reviews on the japan amazon are mixed (the second Shin got a better reception in comparison of the first) as people, who didnt like them, complained it wasnt really scary, the lack of voice actors (similar to the PSP/DS titles, so beware if you prefer voiced speeches to understand nippon), or the Shin serie taking a gruesome turn due of the higher CERO rating (Z which allows guro) compared to the original trilogy.

Then again I started this franchise with the Shin serie, and have yet to touch upon the original Hayarigami trilogy. So I'm probably missing some context on the criticism that the Shin titles got.

Nice guitar riffs, but it doesn't look like an inspiring game. Maybe a demo look if it's possible.

Mary Skelter 2 isnt going to be on the Vita it seems
what a shame,

If you want to talk about games, post about games, not bitch like a fucking fairy.

Is the vocabulary fairly complex or could a beginner in nip understand a majority of the characters?

He can't until the person he doesn't like is out obviously, don't be mean user

Picked up the Super Robot Taisen PSP games (1440 yen each) from the Capcom psn sale


It's fairly hard with all the terminology (due of working inside the police force) and slangs. Visual novels in nipponese are not something I'd recommend for beginners in general


Not surprised, but at the same time I'm getting Gust vibes with Compile Heart trying to do several projects at once in a short period of time.

Is there a list of games for the pstv that are 100% playable if you whitelist them?

3.65 hack should drop in next few days, beta testing started.

Oh shit that was fast.

The patreon shekels greased the wheels a bit.

lel. As much as I despise it, its redditor dollars being thrown away on something that benefits us all so I guess its fine

3.65 enso tonight or tomorrow.

Why does that girl have no armor on her chest?

Nice, thanks.

I ain't installing that shit until I know that retroarch, my tools, and my plugins still work. But that's still cool as fuck.

At least adrenaline works. I'm struggling with nonpdrm right now though.

I learned my lesson with Winjews 10 years ago, fucked over my laptop

It's still being a piece of shit. Adrenaline and vitashell are working fine but I can't get the liverefresh to work. And the disagreement is totally fucking useless tonight.>>14471702

Seriously? Another fucking word filter?

Just to double check, is the latter in regards to digital backups, or does it work with allowing for playing physical cartridges past the prior 3.60 cut off as well? I know it says "all games" but still.

Backups and carts.

Pretty cool. Any idea how long it might take Sony to patch out the ability to connect to the PSN again? Got a few things I'd like to put on there if possible while I have the chance to, since in the past the QCMA workaround to transfer from the PS3 to Vita was more than a bit finicky.

Bravo Gust.

Bigass warning: after installing 3.65, Vitashell may become corrupt and crash. If this happens, do not panic. Delete the vitashell bubble and the vitashell folder in ux0/patch and reinstall through molecular shell.

To clarify, reinstall the latest vitashell.

are there any plugins or homebrew that are probably not going to see support on 3.65?
More importantly, what notable ones for sure doesn't work on 3.65 as of right now?

maidump and vitamin are officially dead. Games installed by either will play but you can't use them to make dumps anymore. Adrenaline and nonpdrm are already supported, people are having trouble with sd2vita.

oh shit, so that means you can't install any fanslated games then?
Assuming by "dead" you mean "won't work on 3.65" and not "development has stopped on them"

There's already a work around already via some new patcher for nonpdrm files, so it's not a permanent loss.

キタ━━━(゚∀゚)━━━!!

But I don't have time for Vita games at the moment so I'll hold off on installing it. Might be a good idea anyway looking at that howto.


Good.

juj

they say on twitter that over 5k people are on it already
more importantly I ain't touching that shit while its mostly unsupported, I still need to download and install the fanslated version of re;birth 3 at some point
those 3.61-3.65 games will always be available whenever I decide to update, same isn't true yet for the ones you can only get through maidump and the like

I'm letting other people break their shit first.

It's a total mess but mostly people are just being idiots and not reading the fucking screen.

Seconding this. I'm not touching that shit for a month because bugs and incompatibilities will inevitably show up.

falling down the slippery slope one day at a time. I just wish the UK wasn't actually big enough to matter in the vidya market, but it is and hurt sales by bullshit like this is retarded

Meanwhile they allow mass grooming gangs.

But that isn't harmful to the public because those children are never seen again.

Asian grooming games should be a meme.
These games should only depict normal britcuck sexual behavior, like having your tongue nailed to a coffee table while pakis stub out cigarettes on your cunt.

Don't forget royal satanic orgies.

I was seriously planning to buy this, but then I looked at the intro again, and there's obviously pedoshit. I don't care if other people get off to that, but I was in it for mystery dungeon + lol boobs. I read this objection and thought "whatever dude, anime girls are whatever age you want them to be, and calling it high school doesn't actually mean anything" but screenshot related is beyond the pale. Fucking sick.

What a shame.

Normalizing pedophilia IS the slippery slope. Banning it from store shelves is weirdly out of character for the satanic kidfuckers in charge.

actual pedos for the most part hate loli shit, they prefer the real deal and most lolicons want nothing to do with actual children.
the BBC is known for going after anime shit and calling it pedophilia and defending actual, real pedophilia and pedophiles and pedophilia normalization when it suits them, 2D (namely eastern 2D) =/= 3D

And I'm supposed to be shocked or something?

Yes.
Obviously not.
No amount of hair-splitting will un-sexualize these drawings of children, and such depictions are a way of normalizing pedophilia in the west in the same way that constant bombardments of miscegenation in advertising normalizes that.

But why am I arguing when I can just put words in your mouth and call you a nigger?

Well you were going to buy a sequel of a game where you molest young 2D girls, that means you're a molester irl :^)

newfag this is what you don't seem to understand. "pedoshit" on this site actually means real pedoshit, not your namby-pamby reddit-tier definitions, and not your goon-tier Holla Forums false-flag definitions, now fuck off

Yeah, western cartoons are so much better. In actuality everyone should read more serious books.

Also, where the fuck is the SRW V singapore eng dump? Anybody got it on cart?

You can get it on the NPS browser, the Vita specific game managers PKGi/PKGj are currently not loading for most people.
Nobody seems to want to use their ability to filter and ignore shitposts under the idea that it "creates" discussion.
Because another shitposting thread is required on Holla Forums.

I wonder why talking shit about pedophiles derailed the thread so hard.

That's not the singapore english, that's the hong kong chinese version. I already checked.

Anyone have a good place for downloading 3.61-3.65 titles? I'd really like to get my hands on some newer titles.

Does the NPS browser not have them? If not, check places like nicoblog. Also the hacking pastebin is going to need to be updated.

NPS does but the google drive is running like shit because of traffic, use one of the back ups from around 9am this morning.

So if I understand this correctly, even if I have a physical cart of a new game I can't play it if I'm on 3.60?

If the game is written to check your version and demand a higher one, yes. It'll demand you update.

Right now there are only 4 or 5 3.67 games (one of which is Secret of Mana, so no loss), so you should wait a week or two for things to calm down then update to 3.65 enso.

gematsu.com/2018/03/metal-max-xeno-first-ps-vita-screenshots

Good news for anyone still on 3.60. The 3.65 compatible maidumptool can make dumps of 3.61+ games that are playable on 3.60 firmware. As usual, wait a few days to see if there are major bugs.

Where do you get vita games outside of nps? there are some titles missing there

Buy them.

Ask for reddit faggots to buy them and dump it. They will do so.

Just have to look around the net. Thats how I found the full version of Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires and not the shitty demo version thats on nps.

Damn. Vitafag ledditors are surprisingly generous, surprising.

They dump and return them. The actual devs are cool guys though.

That's good at least, I wasn't planning on updating until 3.67 is available since I don't want to go through the hoops to update everything twice.

Are there even games that require 3.67? Otherwise I think it would be pointless to update all the way.

You niggers bullied me hard and I respect you for it. I probably deserved this.

I still find it odd that it's coming west, yet apparently no company thus far has stated they're the ones handling it.


I find that sad and funny at the same time. At least the article still states it to be getting US release, and I take it that the quote about it being M rated is more "already rated" than "anticipated rating".

Speaking of which, I'm still not seeing a listing for the upcoming release on Amazon. To be fair, I recall it taking quite a while for pqube to get the likes of Valkyrie Drive's NA version up there, but has there been anything about English OLZ not going to be distributed through Amazon US or anything (IE: some other vendor having exclusivity, or Amazon telling them to fuck off)? That is assuming it's going to be seeing a physical release, I mean.

even bald it is a cute
nigga please, it was bound to happen, you probably just came in at a pessimistic time in the threads
good on you for not sperging out and gloating though, you're alright

Eh? Like what? The devs of the games? Or…?

please try to use alternatives when you can, if its the best price I guess use it but don't contribute to their cancer

It's mainly since I have gift card money stuck in there at present. Also, it's the sort of game I'm not real sure which other vendors would be willing to stock it given the content. I know pqube's used Rice Digital for stuff in the past, but given that's apparently a uk outlet (at least going off their storefront being a .uk one), I have to question if they're going to stock it there, unless they're still allowed to ship the US/general EU (assuming more countries don't block it) version through it despite not being allowed a version native to bongland.

Is this a shitpost?

You tell me, it's on the about page.

Real cute installer. Anyway the update succeeded. I had a major scare where none of my existing games were loading but that was me being a dumbass.
As far as the ones that are 100% legitimate (not ripped from my carts or my Euro PSN) ReNpDrm still seems to work but since it can be done right now I just got it properly activated and disabled that. Oclockvita still works but according to someone on the Github might not be perfect. At some point I'll update the paste for this, maybe, I've been unmotivated lately.


Enso's exploit was patched out in 3.67, the only reason we haven't had 3.65 sooner is the chicken and egg problem of getting sufficient access on 3.65, which the installer addresses by starting from 3.60. Also unfortunately now the major problem will be game patches, I'm updating some of the games as we speak but it's always possible they'll be broken in future.


Probably. Deliberately architecting their system for less access would result in them being forked pretty quickly. They just won't be doing any work towards things like NoNpDrm for example.

Just like how the "vitapiracy" subreddit says this in the info section.

How are they even allowed to refuse ratings anyway? The whole point of them being there is to give ratings to certain product that's being sold in the country. If they think it's adult only, then give the rating and if it's full PTSD mode, then make a new rating for that. What the hell are they even around for if they can just refuse to classify anything that upsets them?

Attached: 67707018_p0.jpg (750x1500, 632.58K)

meanwhile it directly links to "nopaystation"

At least in Australia, "Refused Classification" is technically a rating but it's the fallback for when something is deemed to not fit into any of the accepted categories when submitted, and it's just a roundabout way of saying "banned". And yes it was banned here too.


I'd rather not consider things like the DMCA as legitimate, but yeah, it's a flimsy pretense.

You can't make a vitamin dump of a 3.63 game, which SRW V is. Stop being a whiny faggot and ask reddit to maidump it for you. Since it's got an NPS english it will take them ten minutes.

I really, really, really like some actually good games. Still, 3.65 game access isn't a good thing as far as I'm concerned since it opens up ability to play all manner of utter trash games I wouldn't be inclined to play otherwise. Seriously this is as bad as that one video review suggests but I'm still doing it.


If you're at 3.60 just go through with the new hack. Worked For Me™.

I've been trying a lot of crap. Valkyria Revolution is hilariously edgy. I can see why people were mad about it though, as it's not a Valkyria game at all mechanically and pretty much just a sequel to Shining Blade on the psp.

With pantsu.

The only reason people were saying "never ever" was because there are very few people actually working on the Vita at all and the people who did the initial hack weren't going further.
That is where the expectation came from.

It is probable that whoever is handling it is keeping news about it as out of the hands of game journos as possible before it's done and released.
The Western game journalists almost never actually go after the Japanese devs because they know it won't cause any changes and it doesn't allow them to gatekeep the English version.
By not having a localizer to attack as "problematic" they are giving the SJWs the equivalent of a limp noodle to stare at for a few months.

So the thing with Amazon having such a massive marketshare on niche products is because most retailers don't carry anything more outlandish than the latest Bjork album.
The alternatives aren't much better. You're choosing the best cancer to have.

In the US an AO rating is suicidal to your bottom line. Major retailers won't carry it and, unless it's changed recently, hardware manufacturers won't allow it on their platform I know this is different in other areas like JP where they actually use Z ratings
It's almost like most rating boards in the West have forgotten they were designed to be a rating system for adults to know what content a game has to judge it for CHILDREN.
That or they've decided everybody is a child and can't decide for themselves what they're ok with, either scenario is equally disturbing.

Please tell this is like Shadow of Colossus except you have to climb up the legs of a cute demon summoner girl, infiltrate her pantsu, and stimulate/plant a bomb on/exorcise the evil spirits in her g-spot.

2017 wasnt particularly a good year for the Vita, outside of a few game releases like
And only like two good visual novels even (Fata Morgana and Tokeijikake Key Line trilogy compilation)

This year might be more promising though

I recall japanese user reviews saying it was crap tbh

I would play that.

I wouldn't say it is a bad game. It is extremely clunky, but none of the mechanics work directly against the gameplay and there are no major game-breaking bugs. If you can tolerate things not being streamlined and polished, and this looks interesting to you, then it is a rather enjoyable game. My only complaint is that it is a bit shallow content-wise, but I am also constantly comparing it to EDF which has tons of content, because I really want it to become a mini-girl EDF clone.

If people that sheltered can't handle fiction, then how do they react to horrific things in reality? Anyway refusing classification is pointless if not outright banning something. This would matter 2 decades ago but now everyone who wants this type of game follows it online and can order it through multiple websites.


Obviously the ESRB and certain rating boards can be easily influenced or plain corrupt. Like when Hatred was AO despite being no less violent than GTA. It also became AO after an outcry when it was once mature. Or when the ESRB wrapped loot boxes with all other DLC. Because they obviously weren't paid off or anything.
I don't think they've forgotten. They just don't care and don't want certain "filth" in their countries. Today I don't see why certain companies give a shit about the AO rating. Not being able to sell things physically in stores is a non-issue these days unless the game is FFXV tier in terms of data.


There is no reason not to reap the benefits from any community you come across if you can. The only problem is when people bring cancer with them.

Considering media (at least games; I know some anime slides by as "Unrated" for DVDs, Manga Entertainment's Noein boxed set, for instance) needs an age/content rating to be sold here, and while Adult Only (or the equivalent thereof) isn't allowed to be sold retail, it can still be sold elsewhere. In not being willing to rate, they can outright deny it release in a given country. They might use "think of the children" as an excuse (and of course kids still find ways to get M rated games, but that's more a fault with both parents and store employees), but it's really a case of "not in my country" from people with the power to restrict and at times deny. I suppose that leaves such import only (and since the PSP and PS3, Sony's been more or less region free), though I have to wonder if such "RC" media winds up considered contraband or not.


Do you mean if the patch takes a game above 3.65, or ability to access servers to download patches off of, or something? Just asking, since I know with the PS3, some sites that host DLC and the like also host game patches to be installed via USB as well, without needing to connect to the official servers.

So did the 3.65 update actually break any addons yet or is it safe to upgrade?

It's a pain in the ass if you are on SD2Vita, but otherwise the major ones are all working.

I'm guessing the same applies for PSVSDs. Gonna hold out a bit more then.

Who are you quoting? I said nothing about posting there. Calm your tits and go play some video games.


What they don't realize is that not giving it a rating glamorizes the product of which people can already obtain with ease. Many local game stores wouldn't hold a game like that these days anyway. I bet the game wasn't even on many people's radar until now. Just like what happened to Senran Kagura.

Is a new physical copy of Mary Skelter nightmares worth 30$?

If you can't get it for free.

If you like Dungeon Crawlers it's decent enough but it drops off pretty quickly.

Christ, its fine to use them for shit that would be wasting the time of people on here like tech support shit and game dumps, its better that their time is wasted on garbage like that than people here's but you do you I guess

It's probably read similarly to sd2vita so yeah, it involves you unistalling enso, using the updated exploit, and reinstalling everything in the config file with the updated packages.

Is there a list or something of decent 3.65 games? I don't wanna go through with this upgrade and break some stuff if it's just trash games waiting for me

It, and it's predecessor, actually wound up on my radar because a while back I'd gotten curious as to what the devs of it (Matrix Software, who had made some prior games I knew about) were even doing at the time, if they weren't still just Square's mobile port bitches. Was nice to see them get out of that hole, but at the same time I was left to assume subsequent games would be never-evers out here (until OLZ got picked up).

Still, as far as any attention being being attention, and controversy being free marketing, that works when a game is still seeing a release in a given language in some format (hopefully a region free one). What I've been wondering about, and hoping doesn't happen, is that constant "Refused Classification" type ratings become the way to push "disobedient" (as far as what they choose to pick up and how they handle it) western publishers into line, and render such titles heavily butchered or outright never-evers. I respect that IFI has stated that any game that would require censorship to release, they wouldn't handle, and how they and Pqube seem willing to write off certain countries like Australia at times, rather than dumb things down to secure a broader western market, but I'd think there's probably a limit to that, where enough western countries say "no" that it might leave them to question why they're even considering bringing particular titles over in the first place. Of course, on the other hand there's plenty of games in the past that have managed to get NA releases but no PAL ones for whatever reason, and not even necessarily due to content-related ones, so I suppose if America allows games like OLZ to still slide by as M-rated (and other games places have refused, like MeiQ, as only T-rated), it's more a matter of balancing the marketing and production to remain profitable even if certain countries have told them to fuck off. Or doing Asia/Pacific releases with proper English scripts as a language option at least.

So is pkgj broken or did I botch the install? It seems to download the entire game but the bubble doesn't show up on my home page.

Fixed the problem, turns out the nigger who hacked my device forgot to delete the ux0 tai config.

Quick someone recommend a comfy non-sim, non-puzzle game

If fucking only. No the main gameplay is your mini-girls navigating one of three rooms to do various things without being noticed by the full-size girl wandering around. Sometimes shooting them to make them "happy" à la Gal*Gun and sometimes just interacting with some object. Occasionally a proper boss battle of sorts where you are mostly blasting away at them as they do random (usually lewd) things and flood out hearts and other projectiles. All this is broken up by masses of unskippable dialogue, and the expected dress-up and item upgrading.


The camera and the control over your character are both terrible, and particularly bad for navigating narrow or awkward terrain, especially since falling too far can kill you. The camera just makes your life unpleasant in tight places, and sometimes ends up with an object between you and it (quite often in places where you'd wonder how the hell they didn't catch this as an issue, like on sniping points). I'd actually say it's probably the worst camera I've had to deal with, this includes games like Castlevania 64, and makes adapting to the awkward controls even more difficult than it needed to be. For that alone I will call it a bad game since it's core to the rest of it.

I'm sure I'll find more to complain about as I get through it, but in short, yet another cute lewd idea executed badly. In shorter, my thing.


Sadly I have to agree with them, as that's where the majority of Vita hacking and game sharing happens. Even shitholes and fundamentally broken communication platforms can occasionally spawn decent communities. I don't agree with posting on there mind.


Fucking christ this should never have made a comeback for regular games. If you're on a firmware that you can use them you're on one that can apply the hacked 3.65 update.


Some countries don't allow importing of RC games like mine. Not that that's always stopped me but still. Also highest ratings generally do affect where you can sell a game digitally it's not just an issue for brick-and-mortar.


Yeah patches can make the game's firmware requirement go up so it's always possible they'll do that. Notably Minecraft, Terraria and Dragon's Crown had to be held back to an older version so you couldn't play online with 3.60. I was running Crypt of the Necrodancer at 1.03 for a while, finally updated it to latest.

PSVSD here. The only annoyances for me was needing to use my official memory card to do the setup, starting with a clean ur0:tai and redownloading all plugins, and finding that updating Adrenaline nuked all its settings (not saves though thankfully).


Tearaway.

Buy it.

Every time flow makes a definitive statement about this sort of stuff they're wrong.

Missed the point. HENkaku Ensō only works up to 3.65, the bug allowing it was patched out of 3.67. There's a chance another startup entrypoint may be found of course, much like we'd still have sighax even if Nintendo thought to release newer 3DSes without the A9LH faults.

What a bunch of faggots.

B-But New Zealand was rated one of the freest countries on Earth. There's no way they would ban something for such a retarded reason.

Already asked in the nep and share thread, asking here for max coverage

/r/ing the fan-translated Vita version of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;birth 3 and before you ask the mirror in the nep OP is dead

It's on no pay station

Funniest thing is that this could apply to any popular violent game with titties and sex in it. Like GTA.

They could easily ban most of modern television, books, and movies with the same argument. Wonder what exactly triggered these countries to ban the game.

He's asking for the fan translated patch, not the regular game.
Does NPS offer modded copies? I was under the impression they downloaded directly from Sony servers.

They've been doing it a lot recently for higher profile Nip tiddie titles.

...

I can bet my 5 dollars that ironically it will cause the sales to skyrocket since they basically advertised the game for free on every possible outlet and everyone will want to own a next postal/carmageddon/manhunt/hatred

they are not that high profile to begin with, especially omega kusoge

I'm installing 3.65 enso and it tells me to uninstall all the plugins. I only have nonpdrm and oclockvita in tai how do i uninstall them? do i just delete them or i have to modify lines in the text files too?

High profile in that they are translated to generate controversy.
Nobody cared about them before they were announced for localization as if there are no children to protect outside of English speaking countries.
Strangely enough there are dozens of games with similar or "worse" themes not released outside of Japan and they aren't creating sex traumatized children. They aren't creating many children at all though

As far as I'm aware just deleting/renaming the config that runs them should be fine but the installer should tell you if you have plugins installed and active so there isn't much of a chance to mess up unless you're a fucktard.

if anyone cares I found the patch for nep re;birth 3 and mirrored it
>>>/nep/5081

I installed 3.65 enso and tried to copy rabi ribi in app to test it, but it doesn't appear when i refresh the livearea.

Install through pkgj (note the J, the original pkgi is dead). Otherwise just make sure the game is in the right spot, and so is the work.bin. Which reminds me, I meant to try that game out. Not today though.

Also switched over to the Storagemgr kernel plugin instead of usbmc. We'll see how it goes, apparently it's wonky with SD2Vita but not PSVSD.

Check your configuration and make sure you have nonpdrm enabled.

The first game has 3d models of monsters. This sequel doesn't even look that much different.

Nevermind then I'm retarded, dunno why I was thinking like this

cute

I didn't even realize that that trailer had just been posted until now. wew

It's understandable for that mistake since most dungeon crawlers on the Vita don't use 3d mobs. The sad part about the trailer is that it really does show that this would have been a Vita release since it doesn't even look too far off from the original, or it could be Compile Heart being themselves with reusing as much assets as possible.

didn't know Disgaea 1 to 4 are on sale on psn.
just saying if anyone still want them.

Pirate or buy pre owned physical.

FF7 and Dragon's Crown

For RetroArch on this thing to not be a steaming pile. Pre-scale shaders would be a godsend because 2x integer scaling is way too small.

I also want to run PS1 games outside of buggy as shit Adrenaline.

Few days ago actually, to correct myself; was reading the forum post wrong (site's mainly French, and I guess I mistook what I assume to be the "edit time" as the "original post time"). Still good news though.

This news is weeks old. Aquagon has been posting Ciel translation pics on his Twitter fir a while now. Still, if he's translating it from scratch like your post implies it would be faster if you started learning Japanese now than waiting for the patch to drop.

Really? Looks like it was just posted a few days back on Atelier Traduction's website, and Project Metafalica's had no updates on anything since January of last year. That said, I don't use twatter, so if that's where more discussion of such occurs these days than actual sites (admittedly one might say Project Metafalica accomplished the job it was made to do already), I haven't been seeing it myself.

Nah, there's no real discussion. Dude's just talking to himself.
Here's an example though: twitter.com/aquagon_drag/status/955553886915440640
There's also a thread now on ARM: w11.zetaboards.com/Revatail_Hymmne/topic/30497498/1/ (looking for editors!)

On an unrelated note, I installed 3.65 Enso with no issues whatsoever and everything working perfectly, well, everything that's been patched for 3.65 anyways. People having issues with it can't follow simple instructions. Now I can finally play pic related.

Attached: 2018-03-21-105659.jpg (960x544, 112.49K)

The installer gives everyone at least 2 warnings to double check and make sure everything is correct, there's not much else that can be done if people mess up and wipe their system.

Slowly but surely. Still pissed off the idea had to end up with such incompetent devs, about the only technical thing that was handled OK is the framerates. I can't believe they prevent cutscene skipping either since that was not an issue before.

Rabi-Ribi but I have to dig out my other Vita since it's not on Japanese PSN. Could just go pkgj but no.

Neptunia Re;translation 2 is finally ported to Vita for those who are interested. Apparently there's now also a plugin to add a secondary patch folder for games so you can mod them easier for ones with existing patches, and it also allows NoNpDrm eBoot modding.

Is that download there a prepatched game file, or just the patch itself (given most translators/hackers only supply the patch itself directly)? I mean, I've seen some big fucking fan-made patches before, but at that size it strikes me it could be either. Regardless, Mega's unfortunately giving me shit on both my browsers (the first prompts it to ask me to install fucking chrome instead, and in my other browser it won't even load the page).

It's the entire game. I'm basing this on two factors.
It mentions removing the English voice acting
The install instructions are exactly like a regular dumped Vita game

It's the game + DLC (save for one which was left out by mistake but you can fix that easy with pkgj) +patch + rePatch. Unfortunately you're still looking at a 1GB download for the patch separately.

I see. Well, I'll look more into it down the line. Good to hear it finally got ported over though.

OH MY GOD I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE NEVER EVER AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
FUCK YES

Fucking nice.

Haven't played my vita for months. I really need to install 3.65.

Is my best bet of making mgs3 playable on the pstv buying a ps4 controller?

How much touch screen stuff did they add to MGS3 on the vita? If it is very little a DS3 can bring up an on-screen pointer.

I don't really give a shit about the special moves they added for the rear touchscreen but my issue is the fact that you need to use it to change weapons/items. I was hoping for some homebrew hack that I never found.

Touch screen is the worst thing about the vita. I wish I could get out of sleep mode without leaving a goddamn fingerpint on it.

Attached: wait.jpg (200x150, 7.14K)

I feel like the touchscreen and back touchpads were only added because Sony decided they needed to ape certain features from the 3/DS without outright releasing a Sony3DS to capture that market.
Then they publicized it by releasing a few dozen games that used the touchscreen/pads in varying degrees of success. Throwing shit at a wall and seeing what stuck, like they had just released the first generation DS.
The PSTV obviously, since it has no touchscreen can be unlocked with a button press. Why did they didn't think to backport that or do it on the handheld in the first place is a mystery.

use a screen protector m9

Hey guys, haven't been on the vita threads in a while, mostly lurking, but I want to know if you recommend Caligula since it's on sale right now until tomorrow. Can't control f to see if this has been answered on this thread before so sorry if I repeated the question here. Is it better to wait for the ps4 release?

Gundemoniums apparently isn't on the freeshop yet so I just settled for umu.

Considering we don't even know if it'll be localized, and it doesn't seem much different, I'd say no. For 15 bucks, it's worth trying. Look up some video of the game and see if it looks interesting.

Caligula isn't good mechanically but you can pirate it if you want to try. The story is a big fuck you Persona 3/4/5 though.

Well it's written by the guy who made 1+2 so I guess it's kind of understandable if he wanted to take the piss out of them.

I've made it to the other side as well. So much games I don't know where to start, going to roll for it.
