The first thing you might need is your save data, if you’ve played the game on PSP, beforehand. While it takes about 35-40 seconds to get to it on a PSP system, it takes about 15 seconds to get there with the Vita. The only noticeable difference is getting to the title screen. It opens and loads, just like it does on the PSP, and the controls are mapped in the same location.Īs far as load times are concerned, they’re mostly the same as they were with the PSN version, running from a PSP Go or a Memory Stick. You’ll get a little “app” bubble for the game, just like a Vita or PS1 game, and you go to open it up. Once you have the game on the Vita system, it’s smooth sailing to get it to work. I’m not sure why you can’t download DLC from the Vita Store, but for right now, you just can’t. Use Content Manager on your Vita, which requires that your PS3 be connected to PSN, to find the DLC on your PS3 and copy it onto your Vita, which will just add the DLC files to your Dissidia 012 file on the Vita. Then, plug the Vita into your PS3 via USB Cable. Basically, download your DLC, one at a time, to your PS3 system. Many games that aren’t compatible with the Vita’s PS Store are compatible through this workaround method. What this means is that you need a PS3 system. You have to use the PS3 Workaround method for that. You cannot download DLC for PSP games via PS Store for the Vita. If you want DLC, though, it’s not that simple. Then, you just have to find the game in Live Area, the Vita’s ‘home’ screen. You can get online, buy it, and then download it to your Vita’s memory card, so long as you have enough memory. The game appears on the Vita’s version of the PlayStation Store. It’s a fairly simple process, though it’s a bit trickier, if you want all of your DLC. So, I have some impressions now on getting the game and DLC to work on the system, and to compare it to how it runs on the PSP.įirst of all is getting the game onto the Vita system.

Anyways, I just got a Vita recently and got to testing out my favorite PSP game. I wanted to end up making an article about Dissidia 012’s performance on the PlayStation Vita sooner, but as circumstances were with my life, I didn’t really have the money to buy a Vita when it had first come out.

I know this blog entry is incredibly late, but better late than never, I’d say.
