Timespinner Coming To The PS Vita

Timespinner will be making its way to the Playstation Vita following a successful Kickstarter campaign where the PS Vita stretch goal had been reached. Timespinner will also make an appearance on the PS4, which most likely means there will be a cross-buy function.

Timespinner is described as a "2D Metroidvania platformer." The game attempts to weave several aspects of Star Ocean, Castlevania, and Megaman X all into one game. Below I have listed several of the games features as listed on the official Kickstarter page.

• Stop Time To Evade Foes
• Explore a large connected world
• Clobber enemies with magic orbs
• Travel through time
• Upgrade abilities and purchase new ones
• Discover hidden areas and treasure
• Fight intense boss  battles
• Adventure alongside companion familiars

You can expect to see Timespinner on the PS Vita very soon. In the meantime keep it connected to the VitaBoys for any further details, and leave us a comment below on what you think of Timespinner.

The PS Vita is in Extremely High Demand Right Now

Honestly, I can truly say I never thought I would get to write an article like this. The Playstation Vita is in such high demand right now that Sony is having trouble keeping them stocked at retailers.

A representative from Sony spoke on the issue of PS Vita shortages saying "The U.S. launch of the slimmer and lighter Vita has generated strong interest among gamers, and we're working to replenish supply here to ensure continued momentum leading into the holidays."

Even a Gamestop representative weighed in on the issue saying "The system has sold better than expected and we are working closely with Sony to receive more (systems)."

It is hard to say why there was such a sudden boost in PS Vita interest, heaven knows it wasn't due to E3. Perhaps the recent launch of Borderlands, or the upcoming Vita version of Minecraft has sparked some badly needed interest. The PS4 is also low on stock, perhaps there is correlation there. Whatever the reason lets continue to support the Vita, and watch it grow in numbers!

Twitch COO Is Looking To Bring Twitch To The PS Vita

It looks like Twitch might be making its way to the PS Vita very soon. In a recent interview with Games Industry the Twitch COO spoke about bringing Twitch to the Playstation Vita. Here is what he had to say.

 

"The company (Twitch) has recently moved into mobile and is looking at the Vita and 3DS as well. On mobile we just released our first in-game integration with Asphalt 8 from Gameloft. For now we are going to be doing that game by game, handhelds......... We definitely want to do it, we want to build viewing apps that are much less CPU intensive."

 

 

So it looks like Twitch definitely is a possibility for the Vita. However it seems as if it might be by a game-by-game basis. Let us know what you think in the comments below.
