PlayStation Network Thread (Vita/PS3/PS4/PSP) | February 2014

Three questions:

1. Is Dreamclub demo available on EU o US PSN?
2. Any interesting demo on japanese PSN?
3. Shouldn't Yakuza Ishin demo be out in hours on japanese PSN?

Thanks.

1. Are you talking about Dream Club: Host Girls on Stage for PS4? If so, it's a free download and only available on the Japanese PlayStation Store.

2. Not too many you can't get in the U.S. or European stores, but there are a few. You can browse them all here. But here are some standouts: Yakuza: Ishin, Puyopuyo Tetris, Fairy Fencer F, Tears to Tiara II. For some reason, a lot of demos, like Yakuza 5 or E.X. Troopers, are removed after a while.

3. Yakuza: Ishin demo is already out on the PS3 PlayStation Network. The PS4 demo should be live by 10 a.m. EST tomorrow morning. I'm assuming (due to Japanese launch). The page for the demo is there on PS4, it just doesn't allow you to download anything yet.

I should also note, on the Japanese PlayStation Store via PS4, you can get three free months of PlayStation Plus, giving you access to a ton of free Japanese PS3 and PS Vita games.You can find a list of stuff here. Notable standouts: Dream Club! Complete Edipyon, Ciel no Surge, Demon Gaze, etc. Just today, they added the five hour full-game trial for Ar no Surge. Which is cool, because it's not out yet.

This looks like a Vita game. F2P PS4 sounds about right.

I think it looks quite good.

We're happy to announce today that a free DLC is being developed for Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z for PS VITA. This DLC will extend the audio support of the game with Japanese Voice Over! Stay tuned for more info.
Good to know we're getting the Japanese voicepack eventually. Now if Bandai Namco could chuck the DLC characters on PSN that'd be great
sadly that's wishful thinking
Will buy, still never got past the second boss of the last DLC. That thing has so many damn forms....
Same here. I'd give it another attempt but I'm pre-occupied with a bunch of other games >.<

Guess I'll get back into it when the second DLC comes out.

YES! guess buying the game during the PLAY promotion was a good choice afterall! :D
 
Somewhere between hating the shooting mechanics and laughable ant animations to level 3 where ants start shooting out of there asses with laughable radio chatter EDF clicked. Man O man the whole level was crazy, ants climbing high towers and lets not forget when they come in numbers. I think I can have some fun with this game. Never again will I question VitaGAF!

Add me barry_matharoo if u wanna play co-op sometime. Just write GAF or EDF in text msg.
 
A couple of dumb questions... If I make a Japanese PSN account for my PS4, will I have to screw around with switching accounts like I did for my PSP? Also are there any good info sources for how to set one up and how to acquire Japanese PSN credit?

Accounts are handled just like the PS3. For setting up, this was on the previous page:

Creating a Japanese PS4 PSN Account (Account Creation + Store Walkthrough)

I don't have a PS4 right now so treat my infos as second hand rumors / source. Its quite similar to the PS3, but you have to make your PS4 the primary console. You can follow any guide to create a JP account on the net and it will still work on your PS4.

Play-Asia is a good way to get JP PSN credits. though they do not sell it at face value like Amazon.

Hope that helps. Now off to sleep.
 
Do note that the "primary console" guff is only bad news if you want two consoles per account, if you want two accounts per console it'll work as you'll expect.
 
Thanks guys.

I totally missed that video from Snowballo on the other page.

I never made a Japanese account with my PS3 so it's all new to me. I'm going to give it a try.

edit: And yeah I'll never have 2 working PS4's at the same time.
 
Got Gunslugs and played it for a while but ended up deleting it. It looks nice and controls very well, but I just don't feel it. Maybe I'm spoiled by Contra and Metal Slug.

Also, nice to know about the DBZ Japanese DLC. I'm sure the game is selling better than expected. I wonder if they regret no releasing it physically..

It didn't? I'm sure I saw a couple of R3 ones on my retailer. Not sure if its the same for NA.
 
I bought gunslugs...

Personally, I'm not a fan - yet. I've only played ten minutes or so but it didn't connect with me at all.

It seemed fairly enjoyable from what I played. Don't regret picking it up for $2 when I want a quick burst of shooty action among other games. The lack of feedback when hit seems like a huge oversight though.
 
That is cool.
Wish I could get it for the imported retail copy.
The twitter post seems to imply it'll be included with a update so you might still be able to.

Yeah I'd doubt they'd bother if it wasn't doing decent numbers on Vita.

America/Canada didn't get a retail release, a bunch of other places did though.
 
Is there going to be a vita sale this weekend?
 
Pac-Man Museum is supposed to becoming out this Tuesday. They haven't announced a price for it, huh?

I'm worried that Scamco's going to try to charge $20 for it. I only really want it for Pac-Man Battle Royale, which is excellent.

We have a physical release for it in Australia too.

I don't know about other regions, but in NA, Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z was not released physically for Vita.


The Vita's 2-year anniversary in the US is coming up on Saturday. Let's hope for a decent sale next week.

2 years already? I'm still saving to get FFX/X-2. It sure is gonna be a really awful month for my wallet.
 
So I am not sure if this the right place to ask, but I am really looking for answer.

My PS3 is broken. I plan on buying a PS4, maybe a Vita, and maybe another PS3 in the future. I was a huge fan of PS Plus when I subscribed and I can see it has gotten even better.

Is there a way to suscribe and purchase PS Plus games for all platforms without owning a PS system through their site?

Yep, I redeem free PS4 games all the time, and I dont have a PS4 yet

I redeemed all the free Vita games even before I got a Vita.

Yes. Do it exactly as you said.
Can I also suscribe or redeem PS Plus codes on there?
Codes don't work unfortunately for PS+ even though the cards say you can redeem on PC.
