Rumor: Japanese Retailer Drops Vita Price

Posted Jan 4, 2012 at 5:07PM EST by Listed in: PS Vita Tags: ps vita discount, ps vita sales, ps vita wifi

In light of tough second week sales, it looks like some Japanese retailers are cutting the PS Vita’s sale price.

The PS Vita, as we mentioned earlier in the week, had a pretty rough second week. After opening strong with over 324,000 sales, the device tanked by 78% and was outsold by both the 3DS and the original PSP. The 3G model in particular isn’t moving well, with retailers reporting that only 56% of those units have been picked up compared to 85% of the WiFi only version.

The tough week has led many analysts to panic about the device’s future and clamor for a potential price drop, but Sony has remained mostly mute on the subject. Now, however, it looks like Japanese retailers are speaking for the software company, dropping prices of their own accord.

According to Edge, one retailer has dropped the price on the 3G Vita from ¥29,980 to ¥24,999, a drop of around 17%. While only one retailer appears to be engaged in the price drop, it may trigger a domino effect of discounts across the nation – either to stay competitive, or simply to entice more people to buy the device.

In the meantime, we’ll just have to wait and see how the events in Japan translate here in the west. Vita could do better and it could do worse ;most of the launch games have a bigger western following than they do in Japan.

What do you think will happen with Vita when it hits shelves in March?

GameStop Wading into Tablet Sales

Posted Oct 29, 2011 at 5:01PM EST by Listed in: iPad Tags: GameStop, ipad, tablet pcs

The brick and mortar juggernaut looks to expand its business offerings as it tries to adapt to a future in which games will increasingly be available via direct download.

Gamers have a love/hate relationship with GameStop. On the one hand, GameStop is a monstrous corporate entity that pays pennies on the dollar for trade-in games and uses harsh tactics to reap a mountain of sales that don’t really benefit developers or publishers. On the other, it’s often very convenient to drop into a GameStop, trade in a few old games and pick up something new.

But GameStop, like most retailers, faces an entire new world of online competition. The world of video games is especially fast moving, with a large number of purchases now going to direct downloads instead of brick and mortar retail chains. GameStop seems to be aware of the trend, and is adding new services in the hopes of balancing out its business model.

Starting this holiday season, GameStop will try a new program in 200 U.S. stores in which it sells tablet PC devices. The store will offer only Android tablets at first, from manufacturers like Samsun, Acer and Asustek. They’re not straying too far from their gaming roots, packing seven free games (Dead Space!) in with each tablet and creating a special wireless controller to interact with each device.

My friend and I were actually in a GameStop last week (she was looking for some old DS game) and noticed that they’re now accepting iPad trade-ins, so maybe this is just the first step in an entirely new business model. If they want to keep their profits high, they have to find revenue other than software.

Of course, this also brings them one step closer to their pawnshop reputation, but we’ll just have to see how it plays out.

Would you buy a tablet at GameStop, or have your experiences with the company soured you to the brand?

Details Emerging on Portal 2 Level Creator

Posted Oct 29, 2011 at 1:36PM EST by Listed in: PC Gaming Tags: forge, portal 2, Steam, valve

New screenshots and a bit more information from the developers give gamers an idea of what to expect from the level creator and its Steam Cloud support.

If you’ve ever tried to use the Portal 2 authoring tools that were released soon after the game, you’ve probably noticed that they have a pretty steep learning curve. While some gamers probably picked it up and figured it out, others, like myself, were immediately turned off by the complexity and decided to spend time doing something else. The new level creator, which will be part of Portal 2’s next free DLC pack, hopes to change all that and make level authoring something anyone can do.

Instead of working with a program that feels like software for level design professionals, Portal 2’s level creator will work much more like the Forge function found in recent Halo titles. Users will be able to drag and drop items into the environment and the whole thing is engineered to be as intuitive as possible. Players will also be able to upload their creations to the Steam Cloud, making them instantly available to anyone that wants to give them a try.

Here’s what Valve has to say on the official Portal 2 website:

“The simplified puzzle creator will let players easily carve out their creations in a straightforward but powerful way. They'll then be able to immediately upload those levels to their Steam Cloud and share them with other players online. We're also building a community site to host all of these player-created puzzles. The site will allow players to quickly find new puzzles and add them to their game, ready to play, with a single click. Players will then be able to rate the puzzles they've played, leave comments for puzzle creators, and follow creators they like.”

Sounds good to me. I’ve always loved Forge and if Valve can create a similar experience for Portal 2 fans, you can bet I’ll be involved.

Are you excited to build your own Portal test chambers?

XBL Indie Games launches Angry Fish

Posted Sep 20, 2011 at 2:42AM EST by Mabie A. Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: angry fish, frozen software, Microsoft, xbl indie games

The anger moves from the skies to the waters. Angry Birds spin-off game, Angry Fish, has gone live on Xbox Live Indie Games.

Developed and published by Frozen Software, Angry Fish is, shall we say, almost an exact copy of Rovio's hit title. Except, obviously, for the bit where instead of birds, there are fish.

Notwithstanding the obvious copy, it actually looks to be a pretty fun game in and of itself. I don't quite understand what the cat is doing underwater, but oh well. Whatever suits them.

Angry Fish is now out on the XBL Indie Games, and is available for 80MS Points. I kinda doubt it will achieve the success that Angry Birds has (definitely no movie rights are anywhere in sight for Angry Fish), but since Microsoft still hasn't got them birds on board, unlike the PSN, this will have to do for now.

Carmack: iPad 2's power is only half that of consoles

Posted Aug 24, 2011 at 5:34AM EST by Mabie A. Listed in: iPad Tags: apple, id Software, John Carmack

While id Software's John Carmack is a fan of Apple's technology, he will not go so far as to concur with the claims that iPad 2's power is equal to that of consoles.

He says of Apple's mobile device, "We have an embarrassment of riches when it comes to mobile development." If it were up to him, though, he would much rather have developers bring in their games to consoles and rake in big bucks than pouring it all to iOS games. "We have more power than you can afford to take advantage of.

Regarding the "incorrect hyperbole" of iPad 2's power, "There's been incorrect hyperbole about the power of these devices, where people are saying that they have console-level performance. The iPad 2 has about half the performance power, and that's a ballpark estimate."

He still closes, though, with a positive word for mobile devices. "But that does mean that mobile devices coming out, certainly next year, will be flat out more powerful, and they'll probably be powerful enough where you don't even need the hyper-optimizing, that you could do a fairly easy port-over of your technology and assets."

Earlier last month, Electronic Arts dissed on the App Store, saying that its model is in "freefall".

High Voltage Software wants Wii 2 to be...

Posted Mar 15, 2011 at 7:27AM EST by Mabie A. Listed in: Wii Tags: High Voltage Software, Nintendo

Previously, rumors came alive and kicking about a second Wii model coming to the market. Developer High Voltage Software wasted no time what they would want to see if the Wii 2 does come to fruition.

For the Wii developer, the first generation Wii is already "haggard". Eric Nofsinger, Chief Creative Officer, explains, "From a development standpiont and from a games perspective, really there's not much that it would need. The primary things that would really help out the system is more memory, of course - you always want more memory on whatever system you're working on - and HD output."

He furthers, "Having a fixed output resolution of 480p, even in widescreen, it's hard, because you make these assets and you know they look really great. Even if you show the same type of graphics but put it on a higher resolution output, it just immediately looks better on most modern televisions in the home."

"If they could just have a higher output resolution and more memory, really the system could do a lot. You also want a faster processor. Multi-core would be great. But even if they just did only those two things we'd be very excited about it as a developer. They'd be hard pressed not to do those two things."

Would they want certain improvements on their motion control? They were, after all, the first among the consoles to come out with motion controllers.

"I would love to see [motion control] transferred over. I think they were a trend leader with that. It works really well, especially with MotionPlus. I'd love to see them expand on that more. i'd like to see that incorporated into the hardware unit."

That's not to say, however, that they'd want a Kinect-style controller for the next Wii, if they do come out with one.

"It's an interesting piece of hardware but I still feel like no one has come out with that concept that makes me as a gamer want to reach out and go, I gotta get this! This is awesome!

It's cool. We like it. It's just I don't think anyone's come up with that idea yet. I'm waiting for that brilliant idea that only works because it's a Kinect thing.

Will Wright or somebody is going to come up with it and then everybody's goin to come up with a dozen knock-offs. Not having a button is such a huge risk, and it's a challenge as a design concept. Even iPhone has a button. Even they get you to have at least one button. It's hard. It's a really challenging thing.

I'm sure people are going to figure it out and there are going to be some really neat ideas."

With rumors kicking into high gear about Nintendo coming up with a Wii 2, developer High Voltage Software wasted no time saying what they would want to see in it if it does come to fruition.
