Astrosmash and Shark! Shark! Gen2 now available for PS Vita

[bikeguychicago]

The Astrosmash and Shark! Shark! remakes are now available for the PS Vita. You need to first download the Playstation Home Arcade app from the Playstation Store. Once you've done that, you can download each through the app. Each game is $1.49.

 

I've downloaded both and like the pseudo-retro graphics each is using. I was kind of disappointed that they didn't retain the original sound effects from Astrosmash (I'm not sure about Shark! Shark! since I don't yet own the original game).

 

I've only just bought both so I really can't review them fully yet. I'll update later.

 

Note that both games are also supposed to be available through Playstation Home this week on the PS3. However, since I avoid PS Home like the plague, I wouldn't know that if it is actually available or where one would find it when it was available.

Vita, last legs?

It's only just come out recently!

The Vita's a pretty awesome system actually, just hurting for lack of games.

I will wait until the vita is 'retired' and maybe i will pick it up.

 

There just is not many games i want.
