I don't think I have seen anything about this before.

Just when I think we have seen the last retail release something else shows up.  I thought March was going to be the end.

Finished Drive Girls, started Mary Skelter since I just got it for $30 from GS.

 

Sometimes you just crave for non-stop waifus. But so far, disappointed in the waifuness in Mary Skelter. I don't get a girls licking girl's blood CG ten minutes into the game? lame.

 

Mary Skelter has some great waifus! That's the best part of the game, actually.

Turned my Vita TV on for the first time in a few months yesterday, and apparently every last downloaded title I have stored on my memory card is corrupt. So far I've only had a chance to test one game card (Persona 4), the save file for which seems to be working normally.

(1) Is there any chance this can be fixed by simply redownloading my games, or is my memory card actually kaput?
(2a) If it can be fixed by redownloading, how can I do this without also deleting my existing save files?
(2b) If my memory card is broken, is there any way to salvage my save files? Or are they stored on internal memory and I don't have to worry about that?

From what I remember the Vita is odd about not letting you delete the Game File without also deleting the save data. Are you a playstation plus member? If you are, I would check the last time you uploaded your save files to the cloud. If you aren't I would sign up for a trial and upload your saves, re-download the game, and the transfer the save files back to the system.

That's a pretty solid JP niche collection!

Also...i-is that a dildo?? 🤔🤔


Sure if you want to hurt yourself :P it's a big daddy figure from the Bioshock games. Yea mostly JP games I'm glad I got into them because my Vita wasn't being used at all before I got into them.

No, definitely don't do that. I'm assuming PSTV and Vita are the same about how save files are set up, so that means if your digital game is corrupt, your save file is too. You may be able to play the game fine for a while but then it'll get stuck on a loading screen or crash at a certain point, and copying that save to the cloud means you won't be able to continue from an earlier point.

Edit: I may or may not have misinterpreted what you said about the cloud save - I'm saying definitely don't overwrite your cloud save with your (now corrupt) local save. If he didn't have PS+ before, I don't think copying those saves will work, but I suppose it can't hurt to try.

Physical PS Vita game collection pic. Also got two 32 GB memory cards packed with digital games (just grabbed Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z) & a PS TV with a 16 GB card. Need to pick up a spare Vita soon (model 1000 all day, OLED screen = best option imo) & of course I’ll prob add a few more games to the collection before all is said and done, Velocity, Salt & Sanctuary, Oddworld: Munch’s Odyssey.

I need to dig out my PSTV and add it to my list of stuff I'm getting rid of... down to just 5 import vita games to sell off, and the PSTV... back when I cared about the Vita I probably had over 100 games.

It's an 8gb. Fortunately this means that I've had to back up my stuff on my PC so that I could switch between what I have installed. Unfortunately I'm also pretty lazy about backups, so I probably have upwards of 200 hours worth of time in my save files on my Vita TV that haven't been backed up.

And no, I don't have PS+, for those who asked.

You should really consider getting that 16GB card. It may not seem that great, but it's a really good improvement over the 8GB, especially if you want to run about five big games off one system.

Space honestly isn't much of an issue for me, and if memory cards are going to break out of nowhere, I'd prefer smaller ones for the lower investment.

Yeah, I still collect, but only until I decide to sell everything off, and start something else. I can't even take pictures of my Vita collection, as most things are scattered and stored around my house. Often times, I sell my collections before most games have ever been played or displayed, how sad is that? LOL

Excited to post and wanted to say a thank you to all the recurring thread visitors, regular posters, and those who have helped me grow my vita collection. It even turned into a hunt during a trip to Spain for some Euro-copies as well as Tadeo (Spain Only). Thanks for all the sagely advice. I also have +2 sealed copies of OddWorld Strangers Wrath Vita I’ll have to get rid off ( one of each style), if anyone is interested.

And now, my collection:

Those two cases without art inserts stick out like a sore thumb. Why don't you switch their place with the Conception II and move that game where they are?

I'm interested in picking up the Shiren Wanderer's Edition PlayAsia has on sale, but their shipping charges are ridiculous. Is there some way to open up cheaper s&h options or am I stuck paying $15 minimum for economy?

I guess that never cured to me honestly. I have 3 carts that don't have covers, one from the assassin's creed bundle and two other loose carts I picked up. I ordered the extra cases when Limited Run had the cases available, but they've since taken the, down- right?

I know there used to be a site to lookup covers and print them but unsure it would have the others:
- assassin's creed iii liberation
- dungeon hunter: alliance
- Rayman Origins

$15 to ship from oversea is not ridiculous

I can't even take pictures of my Vita collection, as most things are scattered and stored around my house. Often times, I sell my collections before most games have ever been played or displayed, how sad is that? LOL

I still to this day have a love-hate relationship with the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance. Twice in the past I have completely sold off my entire collection of systems and games of these three platforms, and shall doubtless at least partially purge the collections of the three again in the future.

 

First time I purged I owned CIB all four Final Fantasy games. Second time I purged I had CIB Pokemon's Blue, Red, Yellow, and TCG, among others. Kinda annoyed to see how drastically the values of those all shot up in the ten plus years since I sold those.

 

Also purged about half of the titles I had owned for my PSP at one point and narrowed it down to just titles I like to play or want to get around to playing eventually. Have been debating purging titles from my DS and 3DS collections as well.

 

Yeah, I've been deeply reflecting on my video game collecting though in recent years, mostly due to space and monetary concerns. Thankfully most of the modern consoles are somewhat garbage to collect for thanks to "Online Only Play" titles, beta released games that require DLC patching to correct glitches, and other such non-sense. I literally no longer add any games to my collection that I'm not at least a bit interested in playing for the PS2, PSP, PS3, GC, Wii, X360, or XB1. I've even backed off on NES and N64 games of little to no interest as there were quite a lot of titles on both I really could care less about. Also the idea of collecting 100% of the releases for my native (U.S.A.) release region has become strongly appealing to me as time has gone by. I use to dream of doing such a thing when I was a teenager, and now with the Vita that's finally looking like a reality. I initially made a huge effort to 100% the U.S. Dreamcast releases, but here I am some sixteen years later and still missing twenty-some titles, some of which now command over a hundred dollars for a good condition complete copy. Where I went wrong with collecting for the beloved Dreamcast was not buying the higher demand Capcom titles when they price dropped and instead gobbling up the low demand titles at cheap prices, which were destined to remain cheap titles.

 

With Vita, I've got a job, I have the ability to budget for the titles as they come out, and I'm not taking chances on missing out this go around. Presently I am only three games shy of having all R1 games that have already been released, with those three missing being titles still readily available from mass online retailers that I'm just waiting on a price drop on before purchasing. And only one upcoming release not yet pre-ordered. In for a penny, in for a pound.

I'm late to the "post your collection" trend. My excuse is that my first child was born on Thursday. :baby:

 

If you count loose, CIB, NIB, and CEs equally as "having a game," I have a nearly complete R1 collection. I'm missing at least Ar Nosurge, Atelier Escha & Logy, Oddworld New n Tasty, and MMA Supremacy. Haven't gone through the checklist recently, though.

Congrats on the kiddo.  Now you have someone to trade for Ar Nosurge, Atelier Escha & Logy, Oddworld New n Tasty, and MMA Supremacy...

 

As I have suggested to all new fathers get a Vita, it is the only thing you will get to play for the next 6 plus months.  In this case it appears as though you have it covered.

 

I am trying to post my Vita collection, but it does not look like I can add anything to the gallery.  How is everyone posting without using imgur etc.?

Update on my corrupt games situation:

I did some poking around google and stumbled on how to activate Safe Mode. From there I was able to rebuild the database, which seems to have fixed the problem without affecting my saves or even redownloading anything (though my folders have been reset). And actually it only took about a minute, despite the warning the system gave me that it might take hours.

@ Souffrir: I've had the same PSTV corruption problem happen on 3 cards (64, 32 and my current 16) and it may have happened after not turning the system on for months.

 

  On my 1st card (32) I kept getting tons of errors and games not loading. Some games would load (like La Mulana EX) but the graphics were glitched and garbled.

 

  On the 64, I had over 100 games in various folders and the icons started to load "blank" and games wouldn't even start.

 

  I formatted the cards and rebuilt their database but the problem still occurred afterward.

 

  So now on my current 16 card, I've decided to keep the data on the card to a minimum (complete it and delete it), 1 physical game and 2 digital at a time to see if it gets corrupt again. 

 

  I finally got a Vita a couple of months ago and I hope this doesn't start happening to it :pray:

Wow man, that has to be frustrating. I’ve never had the problem with any of my Vitas, so hopefully it is one isolated to PSTV.
