crimsonidol38 Posted May 25, 2016 Author Share Posted May 25, 2016 It's pretty old news. There was a kickstarter campaign and it reached Vita goal =) Just Sony's approval is holding them back so it's still not out. So until Sony grows a pair of balls, it's not coming over here then. Don't want to get excited for nothing. Even us backers get barely any new info about the Vita-port, but now they are at least licensed developers (news from January) and they also have Vita-devkits (news from April). The problem seems to be that they have to port this game to a new engine (if I remember correctly Unity) and this seems to take longer than expected. But as far as I understand, they (--> Sekai Project) will use it as a base for all VNs they had Vita stretch goals for. But we shouldn't expect anything until 2017, I guess. So we have to hope that at least Muv-Luv comes out this year (I want my limited physical, god damn it >_> ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 This is great news. Hoping the other versions get a sale. Missed it last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that the vita is only staying alive due to the unique j/rpg-type games and the odd visual novels here and there (just my opinion).

And... what more does one need? The problem seems to be that they have to port this game to a new engine (if I remember correctly Unity) and this seems to take longer than expected. Yup yup, that's it. It's due to Vita's structure. Using Unity is the quickest way to achieve the port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollers23 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Why would you think so? PS3 is pretty much like Vita now. It's only relevant to Japan now... West is now all about PS4 unfortunately. Yeah, I know but since they released first S;G on PS3 in the west it's weird to drop the sequel like that. Maybe PS3 ver sales were super low or something? Anyway, more importantly we're getting this on Vita, the true and only machine worthy of VNs so I'm not mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, more importantly we're getting this on Vita, the true and only machine worthy of VNs so I'm not mad Well, there wasn't much of a choice since PS4 version was developed much later =D You can bet that if PS4 wasn't just a bonus to JP S;G0, it would be released instead of the PS3 version. And they had to offer both proper VN machine version and console version for those weird who prefer VNs on large screen. Though... you may be correct about the PS3 sales as well http://www.vgchartz.com/game/84967/steinsgate/ http://www.vgchartz.com/game/70760/steinsgate/ Edited May 26, 2016 by Satoshi Ookami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollers23 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Are there any preorders besides Rice Digital and some random Spanish stores? Rice Digital offers free shipping but the game itself is 35 GBP One Spanish store has preorder for 35 EUR but if you are outside Spain then shipping is also 35 EUR xDD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superstarmaste1r Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) Shame that they didn't include ps3 as well Will have to skip the sequel sadly even though I want to buy it. Edited June 1, 2016 by Superstarmaste1r 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rollers23 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) Steins;Gate 0 is up on VGP.ca for 50 CAD and with FREE shipping Probably the cheapest option so far. Expected release date is 31th August (a bit later than EU, nothing surprising since we got first S;G earlier too) Edited June 3, 2016 by Rollers23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the site shows up 23rd september as the release date and Steins;Gate 0 recently appeared on UK amazon with that date too. So 23rd september it is then. Most likely. At least in Europe.
