Difference between PSP and Vita versions is quite big, quite a good effort there.

 

[wiggleb0t]

Seeing how Koei / Tecmo in general are both pretty aggressive with most of their releases for the western markets am sure this will be released in the US also. If lucky perhaps you guys will get an announcement at the E3. Seeing as how its coming out here in Japan next month.

Hope you're right.

Portable (3ds Vita) getting so many awesome games.
This and God Eater 2 would be welcomed by many outside of Japan.
Does Sony ever offer any incentive towards some devs/pubs getting out English releases?

Kinda shy so wont make a thread but Shinobi is $10.76 with free shipping on orders over $25 from Amazon. It's in the mail so can't comment but for a tenner and ninja 2.5d side scroller=win!.....(maybe?)

 

[dakkumauji]

I'll be sad if the Vita version doesn't outsell the PSP version especially after seeing the comparison between the two.

 

[DrFurbs]

Does this game have hunting/gathering principals in it... to get better weapons and armour I mean.

edit

the games a looker for sure.

You can download the demo to your PC from here. Then transfer the data to PSP.
It will be on PSStore at 22nd.

Thanks, just checked out the tutorials for now. The sickle weapon and the bow are pretty awesome.

Excellent

I'm going all Ninja with this one

You should make a new thread for this

 

[BlazingDarkness]

The graphics are really impressive.

 

[Ken]

Might have to import if there's no news of localization soon.

Just found another video that shows twin sword combat, in-game town, and also some more content info.

I want this game in English!!

 

[Ravage]

The Vita version looks great. Nice art style too.

The dual sword combat starts from 17:28, if anyone is interested.

Watched the whole video last night. Really like the style, and I was pleasantly surprised at how difficult the bosses seemed to be (more than half their HP lost in a single blow).

Some of the enemy concept art early on looks great.

 

[Augemitbutter]

sweet the art is real good.

 

[AnbaLeumas]

This looks just like Soul Sacrifice. Why can't the Vita get some more unique titles

Edit: Looks pretty cool.

There is no doubt that the Vita has had its fair share of Monster/Demon Hunter clones. Hope that this one fits the billing of a proper competitor for MH and even Soul Sacrifice.

 

[2+2=5]

ambientmystic emulated the toukiden psp demo and posted screens in the ppsspp thread.
It's time for a new comparison! Let's see if the vita version is really that better!

(psp first)

Vita got some good upgrade work, but the (emulated)psp version looks good too.

 

[LMN]

I found some more pics of the in-game character model, the last one is a comparison between this and MH4 (I did not not make them, just want to share pics to those who are interested)

For me, this game have one of the most impressive character model and graphic I have ever seen in PS Vita game.

 

[erpg]

Lighting is also surprisingly good.

 

[LMN]

More monsters and mitama pic from famitsu

Edit: Lyphen have posted the pic

credit to Famitsu

I hope that this game become a success in Japan, and more ppl give it a chance.

 

[2+2=5]

Yesterday i tried it, it looks very good but i don't like the genre

 

[erpg]

Famitsu doesn't do hotlinking so:

Thank, should I remove the pic then?

For 2+2=5, well at least u give it a try right =P

 

[dakkumauji]

Man, this keeps looking so nice.

I just love that art. I also wouldn't mind if K-T tosses them into their next musou game for kicks.

 

[LMN]

Koei Temco finally posted the 2nd PV with better quality on their channel, it's same one that was posted before.

This looks absolutely stellar. Everything looks so good, the special effects, the enemy designs, the weapons.

NA pls.

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

Koei, we know you're listening.

Please release this in the west.

This looks incredible for a handheld game.

Not in sales though.

Would it sell any worse than all of the musou games in the west?

 

[Takao]

Maybe? Omega Force's last MH clone didn't get its' sequel localized, and that leveraged an existing brand.

 

[xJavonta]

How did I miss this?

I'm assuming there's no US demo since I didn't see it in the store for Vita?

Anyone know how I can get the PSP demo?

Thanks! Downloaded

Now to just find a Mini USB cable for my PSP lol

 

[LMN]

I believe there going to be a 2nd demo coming out too next month, with all 6 weapons and (not sure) customization, I guess I need to switch my psn account again =).

Still "localization" Believe!, it would be a waste if this game does not come out to other regions

 

[Evolved1]

Um... this looks awesome. Tell me we are getting this in the west. I mean... seriously.

The next demo will work like Soul Sacrifice - where your progress does carry over into the retail game.

 

[YoungOne]

The vita demo is adhoc only?

 

[crinale]

The vita demo is adhoc only?

The current version is ad-hoc only.

Spoiler

If you have PS3 you can ad-hoc party with another Vita or PSP

Cool, I will definitely try it, btw Crinale, I know the game is not out yet, but do you know the Japanese current impression of the game?

By looking at Japanese internet the first demo was hammered by users, and after the patch it changed 180 degrees (Internet tends to be very hyperbolic as everyone would expect).
After the patch lots of talks are going on. I hope the June demo brings us more hype.
