Damnit, saw it in stock and waited a few mins.
Now the regular one is OOS.
Fucking hell that was quick :|

It's weird. I have the money to immediately do this, and I want to, and yet I don't in case it won't work like it should for another region's games. :\
It's pretty crazy how something like this affects Cross Buy titles. Dragon's Crown for example: being on sale for both PS3 and Vita right now, one could pick up the Vita game for cheap and essentially have THE definitive version (slowdown notwithstanding).
What do you mean? The PS3 version runs at a higher resolution and has a better framerate, so it's obviously the definitive version.
It's ps2.5 I think. Ps2 with higher texture res and can use ps360 shader.Screw that head-mounted shit.
But, damn, the Vita on TV is going to be glorious. What type of tech is the Vita...would it be comparable to like a 360/Wii U?
PS4 controller has a touchpad....PS mobile works with Vita buttons and joysticks as well as those generated on a LCD screen.....right? PS4 controller likely is designed to work with Vita TV.PS Mobile incompatibility is not that surprising. A touch screen is currently required for development on the platform. Sony would have to modify that policy to allow games to target a controller only device.
I hope that you have seen killzone mercenary gifs or vids, well that's what vita can do graphically(until another game sets the bar at a higher level at least), what many developers do is another thing though....Screw that head-mounted shit.

I'm guessing that PS Mobile will eventually port to the PS4 and there was iffy; on then off support for the PS3 mentioned. We have to remember that internally, planning for the PS4 has been going on since 2008 so a 2011 PS Mobile project that used Gnome Mobile's Mono would be designed with a ecosystem of multiple platforms in mind.
The plan developed by Sony, Microsoft, Disney and others was to leverage Java and HTML 4.01 - XMA using OpenVG to support APPS on TVs or STBs. PS mobile's Mono is a virtual machine that can be run in a sandboxed environment using modern IOMMU controllers to insure security. PS Mobile's Mono calls Java to perform system functions on a Android platform.
Java is available on all Blu-ray players, the PS3 and the PS4. PS Mobile is allowed to work on only more modern Android phones and I think a IOMMU is required. The PS3 using the hypervisor can run a virtual machine but there is no protected IO and less than ideal security. The PS4 has ARM and AMD IOMMUs in the AMD APU and in the ARM second custom chip.
So Mono calls Java for system functions like writing to the screen; on a Android platform Skia is used and on a PS4 likely Java calls Cairo. There is no reason PS Mobile can't be ported to any platform that supports Java except self imposed rules for security...I.E. IOMMU required which the PS3 doesn't support. Remember PS Mobile is designed to support APPs and Games.
Why another level of Virtual machine, Mono on top of Java? Sony can control and insure Mono's security but not Java's.
Lol at the 4k tv to play a 544p game, it looks good tough.

Still no news on US release?
Pick a point you disagree with or think is not supported. As we learn more of what's in the hardware and how it works, comments made by Sony make more sense.dude, you should really consider Occam's razor instead of this scattershot dramatic leaps of logic approach.
It's ps2.5 I think. Ps2 with higher texture res and can use ps360 shader.
It seems better off than the PSP was to me. Definitely more than a PS2.5, I'd say it's up there with early PS3 games.Vita's in a very similar situation as the PSP was in terms of power. Just a bit worse than the then current gen PlayStation home console.
I'd say many PSP games looked better than early PS2 games, but that can have just as much to do with more sophisticated usage of 3D graphics as it does the raw power. But that's also applicable to Vita versus PS3.It seems better off than the PSP was to me. Definitely more than a PS2.5, I'd say it's up there with early PS3 games.

ps2.5? You're crazy.
Yup, I mean the thing has more RAM than Xbox 360 and PS3 as well so in no way can you call it PS2.5. More like PS3 0.9.Vita can easily compete with early Ps3 games. Killzone Mercenary looks better then most shooters on Ps3 and Wipeout2048 be considered one of the best looking racers if it were on Ps3.
Thing is that most devs don't put much effort in making Vita games.
I I just realized it doesn't support games using touch screen; and that you need to buy a dual shock if you don't have ps3/4; it's such a stupid thing.
Just fucking add tv out to vita already .
Sounds about right to me. Vita games can look pretty good, but they generally run at a much lower resolution and have worse textures than PS3 games. They're not that close in power.ps2.5? You're crazy.

PS4 remote play is what's gonna tip me over into buying a Vita TV. Is there any word when the app is likely to be released?

Damn bump, I thought this got announced for America.
I'm doubtful it will ever get a retail release here,considering it's not even doing well in Japan. The Vita TV will need a re-branding if it expects to sell even moderately. It should be marketed as a media streaming device--that can play games. I doubt this will happen though, as Sony has more important things to do in NA, like push the PS4 and the new Vita Slim.
The most cost-effective thing to do would be to add DS4 support, remove the account-locking, and sell it on online marketplaces only. A retail release would be a costly waste of time.
Even if they announce, I will not buy until they get 90% of Vita software supported ...
90% of Vita software are indie games and ports. Very few actually use the touch features, thus making them compatible.
I expect 100 percent first party support (tearway included)
