No Release Date Yet?

No, you're not biased. 3DS is awesome! I have the xL (in a manly princess pink/white of all colors ) and it still fits perfect in my pocket. Although I never owned a PSP or Vita myself, judging by look/feel as well as US release library, PSP was a much better console than Vita IMO. Great homebrew support as well. I had a friend in college with a PSP stuffed full of console emulators. He managed to turn quite a few heads playing Super Mario World on the thing.

Just because you agree with my opinion doesn't mean I'm not biased

I have 3DS, I had a PSP, and for me the Vita easily beats them both.

IMO, the reason it's not doing well is mobile phones, tablets, and lack of software support. However, the games that have some production value(Uncharted, Killzone, TPA) are great.

Definitely agree here. I have all of them and the Vita is better. However, the 3DS has the game library to put it in the position it's in. That's why it's top dog right now. I still love my Vita though, as with my 3DSXL and PSP.

3DS = Game Boy
Vita = Sega Game Gear and Atari Lynx

I honestly that's the best analogy that fits that situation. Hehehe It really does fit. Also the comparisons are spot on! Btw I use to be stationed out at Barksdale AFB from 2002-2007. So I know Shreveport/Bossier City pretty well.

Any new info on a release? or if it will ever be released?

 

[StarDust4Ever]

Wii-U version is starting to look like vapourware sadly...

I'm thinking after the Xbox re-release we'll hear something...

It seems like a lot of what FS is doing is waiting on Xbox.

Screw Microsoft. There. I said it. Please don't ban me...

 

[Munky]

I agree...screw them with a big rubber dong, break it off and beat 'em with the rest of it.

(sorry, just got through with a George Carlin stand-up marathon)

Well guys to be fair, Microsoft didn't hold a gun to FarSight's head. FS chose to accommodate MS and their policies. I honestly believe that FS stretched themselves very thin trying to do every single platform. Another bad thing about it is that all platforms don't get the same release date. Hopefully all 3 current gen consoles will start to have simultaneous releases. However, I doubt that will happen.

 

[Kratos3]

I kinda like the 4 table money shot we've been getting on PSN lately. I can try tables out on iOS until they come out.

I completely went off on FarSight earlier this year about the continuing 360 fiasco. Miraculously I was never banned.

I will be surprised if they ban you just for a two-bit comment like that.

 

[Cobra]

Still hanging out for this... Hope it'll still arrive some day. Even if we can't have a release date, reassurance every now and then would be swell.

If they want to release on 360 they had to abide by the policies, or take a hike. The rules were set up with the good intentions of preventing shovelware and beta testing disguised as final products, but have proven to be too restrictive, difficult, and expensive for developers, so games released on there usually don't see the improvements other platforms with less restrictions (like Steam and Android) do. FS has indeed stretched themselves thin with all the platforms, but that's also because they want to reach profitability. This game is sorely understaffed, but it's a niche product with a limited customer base, so we should be lucky we see it at all.

 

[Munky]

But we are sooo lucky they had time to do Orbals.....

with those legal troubles (whatever they are), you probably nailed it on the head.

The Recent Addams Family Kickstarter is stating about a WiiU verison of the game, so i think there is still hope.

It's probably a problem with the parity clause from Microsoft.
