When I was at Target yesterday, I didn't see any Vita games on the shelves at all.
They just clearanced them all out. Vita will live on mostly in digital form going forward. Physical will be whatever comes over from Japan mostly and whatever 3rd parties will still bring to cart.

 
That Superbeat: Xonic game is getting a physical (and digital) release. So there's that. I'm not crazy about the music in that trailer, though.

I probably should have looked into this game more when the limited editions went up. If I had realized it was by the dj max guys I would have grabbed a copy of the soundtrack along with a GCU copy.

 
We all know the support from Sony for the Vita is all but over.  However, I do wish they would slash prices on the memory cards to try to breathe some life into it.  I think it would do a lot more than what the new color model would do.  It would really help the 3rd parties that are still trying to support it.

Where were you when we talked about this.

Also what I'm looking mot forward to is that anyone who bought the limited edition has a chance to win the Korean limited edition which comes with a red/blue korean vita.

 
Lol, can I still do that today? I know you mentioned they were going to stop allowing eBay card purchases via credit.
You should be able to. That "policy" isn't actually company-wide and the registers don't stop the sales if you use store credit, so you may be able to get any GCs with credit for a little while longer if you have a store with employees who don't care or aren't aware of the restriction.

 
I'm not sure about using the analog sticks in a rhythm game. Those feel so imprecise. But maybe I just don't understand how they are used in this game.

Oh I was here. Just not paying attention lol. Figured I'd skip this one since I've gotten IA/VT and Dancing all night in the last couple months. If I had realized it was DJ Max I probably would have gone all out and bought the vinyl edition on hype alone. In retrospect it's probably a good thing I wasn't paying attention lol

 
I'm guess you never played their previous games before? Their games make Miku, IA VT, other rhythm games look like childs play.
I got and tried DJ Max Portable 3, or whatever it was called, and found that too hard even on the easiest setting and songs. The timing seems ridiculously tight. Didn't really find it fun, but on top of that I haven't liked any of the songs I've played so far (which admittedly isn't many). So probably going to skip this one and wait for the next IA/VT.

 
Starburst and Saison is intriguing. Dark Chocolate and Raspberry Beer should be good (at least with Raspberry Tart).

Most of the rest are trying to go for complementary tastes, but I do not think any would work. *MAYBE* the milk chocolate with a milk stout. I would think dark chocolate would work better to cut the sweetness from the beer there though.

I actually really like Reese's Cups or M&Ms with imperial stouts. However, I do not think it would work with barrel aged ones and they certainly would taste like crap with the corn like flavor of a cream ale.
I've recently tasted a couple different good Peanut Butter porters and while I wouldn't drink more than one at a time, I can see how that peanut butter flavor matches good with the dark, thicker beers.

I thought the pop rocks/sour beer sounded interesting, but my biggest take away from the article is that there is a Popcorn Pilsner.

The timing on DJ Max is crazy. I'm not great at it, but I love it lol. I tend to prefer the more frantic high tempo levels in rhythm games though.

Pop rocks and sour beer does sound really interesting. Not necessarily for the flavor combos, but adding the popping to that end flavor on a sour sounds like it'd be worth the experiment.

How does $14.66 for a 16 GB card @ Target sound? That's what I got when inventory was over and price change marked down this and many other things.

Used my employee discount and got it for $14.00.

I did not even know you had tried any sour beers before. I am just not sure about that combo. I might would give it a try. For me sours work best with a charcuterie or soft cheese plate. I am too cheap to spring for that unless I am at a brewery that primarily does sours though.

Terrific if that was the MSRP that everyone could get it for whenever they wanted to.

I did this exact thing. Bought the soundtrack and used CAG math to get the game for $2.34 from Best Buy. It was cool they offered 200 soundtracks if you already had the game pre-ordered from a retailer.

I've had a couple when they were on tap nearby, and maybe one other at a tailgate? No idea which ones they were anymore, but I didn't mind the flavor. But yeah, I think the pop part would be interesting enough if you could get the most generic flavor and combine it though.

Man with all the Vita talk I'm actually thinking twice about picking up that blue slim from Gamestop. Wish is $150 instead of $200. Maybe Paris Games Week will bring a price drop?

Seems pretty good I think. I paid $20 or so for a 16GB last year around BF from GS. I think it was $24.99 but I had a couple of those $5 off coupons from Kongrate games.

 
Inspired by Fallout, huh? I guess that means the beer will be as terrible as it looks.

there's one notable console missing from this list. how apropos.

 
I'm not!

Mine is 95% paid off. When I trade in my fat one I'll grab it, and probably a game or PSN card and walk out happy.
I'm with you. but jkam already has 20 vitas laying around his house so I can see why he might be reluctant to get number 21 with all the 'vita is dead' talk finally soaking in.

p.s. fuck this stupid 300m score attack trophy in dengeki bunko. I managed 299.5m today. blergh.

Is that trophy boostable? If so I can help you out this weekend sometime. I'm probably going to open up my copy tomorrow.

 
Yeah that could be it:

Black OLED

Sapphire Blue OLED (Japan Import)

Black Slim

White Slim (Japan Import)

Slim Blue would be #5. 

 
With the VVVVVV character being mentioned earlier, I was reminded and went to put the game into my wishlist. is this game not cross-buy? I see no mention of that. It's cheap ($8) so probably not, but would be nice if it was.

 
There are some $7.50 blurays at Best Buy with $7 towards Spectre. Unfortunately, the only steelbook I saw with the movie money was the Daniel Craig (Unfinished) Collection. Picked up Dr. No and Goldfinger since Ima see Spectre anyway.
 
I just noticed I have a favorite link to /. so I clicked it. Still there. Remember when slashdot was all the rage and slashdotting was a thing?
