BioWare, after you finish releasing Mass Effect: Andromeda and all of its DLC's, could you release a spin-off for the PS Vita?

It does not have to be on the same level of ME:A. I already thought of how it could work...

Two or three sectors, each with one or two systems. About 15 to 25 worlds in all -- twelve non-mission worlds with fun facts, 5 side-mission worlds, 5 main-mission worlds, and three hub worlds with side-ques.

You could probably get Dragon Age 1-level graphics. To my knowledge the PS Vita possesses a 128 MB video memory card -- TO MY KNOWLEDGE -- so I do not fully know what level of graphics are available.

Sense it is the Vita, maybe only small and medium sized maps.

A fourth-person view during missions, walking around hub worlds, or on the ship. Then zoom-in during dialogue.

A diverse squad of about three to five. With one or two romance options.

Sense it is the Vita, instead of using large videos for cutscenes, include artwork similar to Mass Effect: Genesis -- but only for cutscenes. To save memory for other things.

5,000 to 10,000 lines of dialogue. To save up room for other things, the protagonist does not have to talk.

The touch-pad could be used for moving around the galaxy map.

Remember Mass Effect: Infiltrator? That was a good game for a tablet. But the PS Vita is more powerful gaming device.

If a Mass Effect game was released on PS Vita I would instantly purchase it. I could be running around a hub world in a village or city on my Vita in my backyard, the backseat of a vehicle, or at one of my siblings house. I would love to use the galaxy map on a Vita, too. You have my permission to use any of my ideas listed, I just want a Mass Effect game for Vita. If you need more fans to support the idea of a Mass Effect game for PS Vita I am almost certain they would. I know a few people who wish they could play Mass Effect when not at home. I am almost certain that if you pitch the idea to the developers, at the very least a few would find the idea interesting. Like I stated prior, I would instantly get it as soon as it was released.

As a Vita owner all I have to say is this: Bioware do not waste any resources in making a flop like this.

 

The Vita now is for niche japanese games, ME and Bioware for that matter has nothing to on the Vita

Mass Effect is on PlayStation 4... well it will be. Why should the Vita be overlooked?

Vita is a niche system.

You're more likely to see a mobile spinoff.

Well there is Mass Effect: Infiltrator for tablet and some phones. But it did not fully feel like Mass Effect.

There are already other RPG's for the Vita. Off the top of my head, Final Fantasy X and Persona 4.

Actually, now that I think about it, the PS Vita could probably do more and or better than what I previously stated on my list.

Because who wants ME but only has a Vita and doesn't have a Xone, PS4 or a decent PC ?

 

There is no significant public for a handled ME, let alone a Vita ME.

I said the same thing about Infiltrator when it came out, but apparently people played that. And I plan on playing ME:A on PC and PS4, but by the time it is released I will not be at home as much anymore, unless to sleep and get ready for another busy day. In fact, I am expecting 2016 to be a busy year for me. I would like to keep up with Mass Effect, though. Even if it is a spin-off portable version. I suppose you could call me a dedicated fan.

Because people have phones and tablets they use or a lot of differents things, a Vita is something you have to shell extra money for, carry around and shell more money for games taht might not even interest you given the extensive presence of niche japanese productions.

 

Unless you already have it, but I'll call you a madman if you bought it for ME.

Then play when you'll have the time, I too wanted to spend day and night playing DAI but I had work so I didn't, that's how life roll, you don't always get to do what you want.

As I always say when similar topics are brought up... rather than go to the effort of putting together another team and spending a fortune on risky side content just give Telltale Games the license to do affordable episodic content for every platform under the sun.

 

Better yet have Mac Walters consult with them to shape the project however BioWare may wish so we don't get another repeat of Deception & Paragon Lost and you can have your Vita Mass Effect experience or even on your phone, tablet, console or PC if you like.

 

Attempting to recreate the Telltale model would probably take longer and cost more than just simply entering into a partnership with them as HBO, Take Two Interactive et al do. It works because it's a sound pricing structure for bite-size on-the-go content that scales from low end devices to PCs and they have some of the best writers in the industry and they've been doing this for years.

 

They have a lot on their plate but that's only because they've got a little gold mine going on and everyone wants a piece. Make it happen EA.

There are FAR more phones/tablets in people's hands than PS Vitas. Not even Sony cares about that thing anymore.

I'd like to see them make Infiltrator for it.

Alright, nevermind. Sorry for attempting to get BioWare to branch out and get a wider audience.

Didn't they declare the PSVita a Legacy Console a few months back? Basically outside of Asia, It's dead. So don't expect any big Western releases on it ever again.

A ME game for tablets/mobile devices... Sure. PSVita? NO.

Vita owners almost certainly already have a PlayStation console or gaming PC. The system has a dedicated audience that is a niche among the most hardcore of gamers.

Targeting this very narrow demographic that either isn't interested in WRPGs or if they are have the ability to play them elsewhere doesn't make much sense.

Been saying for years that the only way to save the Sony Portable range is to make portable versions of existing consoles. A ps3 handheld would do DS numbers if you could transfer your disc images over using PS3/4. It would breathe new life into 1000s of titles in digital and retail - Skyrim, GTA5 and Mass Effect trilogy, etc. all on the go. To not do so is leaving money on the table. Trying to be greedy and protectionist with peripheral obscure non backwards compatible formats is costing them an obscene fortune in lost revenue.

 

PSNOW is pure dreamland in the mobile space and the pricing structure is insane. Remote play is not practical for mobile gaming either and is such an ass backwards approach to a problem which shouldn't exist. Without harnessing the existing games library and letting us replay games we've already purchased Sony are never going to get any where in the mobile gaming market. If the vita had been ps3 portable we would have seen so much more developer/publisher support and public interest for the damn thing because the potential customer base is about 100x as big.

People who buy handheld games consoles deserve not to have anything. :)

Handheld is my best friend on family vacations. If I did not have that then I would sit in the back if the vehicle bored. The little games on my phone bore me after awhile. With my Vita I can play Uncharted, Battlefront... et cetera. I thought that Mass Effect would be a good idea. People play Mass Effect 2 on their Vita's.

For a flop, it sure is better than the PSP.

I have a Vita, and it is actually amazing technology, but ergonomically it fails. You can do shooters on there, but it causes hand cramping quickly (I played Borderlands 2 on there l) I'd rather the Vita be a true second Wii U style controller with a second screen like in the Wii U. I honestly wear Mario Kart out because of the second screen.
