Does it work on VitaTV too?

I saw that the other day. I'm definitely interested in throwing some emulators on my Vita. According to the site, it works for PSTV as well.

I guess I have no real need to put it on the PSTV, though, as I'm still back on 3.20, and I use the Wii for most of my on-TV emulation needs.

What emulators can you find on the Vita that work well?

If it's just typical 8 and 16 bit stuff, then it's not really worth checking out - really anythng that isn't above a PSX isn't unique at all at this point.


If they have a good Saturn, PS2, Dreamcast, Xbox and Gamecube emulation, then that would be pretty awesome, any one of those would be enough reason for me to get a Vita.

Got this on the way:

I'll be playing it as soon as I get it.

For science.

Also wanted to support PQube. Look what they are localizing next for Vita, coming in September:

Dang, why is everything coming out in September? :shock: There's Criminal Girls 2, MeiQ, and this all in the same month (plus other games I guess :P). I would be happy about that if I was actually here then :|

Also I'm a bit surprised there's a butt on the cover of Valkyrie Drive. Dungeon Travelers 2 changed their cover since there was a bit of an up skirt shot on the Japanese version, and others have changed theirs because of a bit of cleavage.

Not that I mind, butt it's kind of funny.

Seriously! For a "dead" system, the Vita has seen a lot of USA physical releases this year, with a boatload more coming in the fall and winter.

Yep. PQube knows their audience, and understands the people who complain about such things aren't going to buy these games anyway. So PQube wisely leaves things uncensored, thus respects their audience, and will reap plenty of sales as a result.

With PQube your waifus' crotches stay fog free.

I must admit, though, I was a bit disappointed that the girls in Gal*Gun are barbie dolls underneath their swim suits...

Rest assured that at least it was that way in Japan too.

Also, to prove I wasn't just talking out my ass, here's a list of upcoming USA physical Vita releases due this fall:

Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star
Akiba's Beat
Shantae: Risky Boots Edition
Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II
Superdimension Neptune VS Sega Hard Girls
MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death
Exist Archive: The other side of the sky
World of Final Fantasy
Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness

That's just off the top of my head, I'm likely forgetting some. Too lazy right now to post box art, but check them out on Amazon. All are available for pre-order.
