PS Vita Weekly Update
Please ignore the line at the end about the poll. I got sent code for Mr Pumpkin Adventure at 3am this morning, so that is getting a video.

Bandai Namco have announced they're making a new game based on the Gintama franchise. Not many details are available for the game, but it's claimed to be a "serious quality, traditional action game with super beautiful modelling", their words not mine. There's no release window yet.
Samurai Shodown V is coming to the Vita in the future from SNK, it was revealed this week by a trailer on the PlayStation YouTube channel. Not many details are available for the release yet, but assumedly Code Mystics, those who handled the last few ports, are handling this one too.
Funbox Media, after the European exclusive Vita release of Top Trumps Turbo, are releasing two more games for the platform; Chicken Range, a scrolling shooter about fighting off eight levels of heavily armed poultry, and Vegas Party, a board game with gambling minigames based off the infamous Strip. Vegas Party releases on the 8th of December, while Chicken Range releases on the 23rd of Feburary. Both will cost 15 pounds.
SystemSoft Alpha have announced a new Vita and PS4 title. Sengo Muramasa DX will release on the 26th of October in Japan. It revolves around an alternate World War 2 in which the Tokugawa Shogunate still controls Japan, and you play a bishoujo officer in the usual grand strategy turn based faire of SystemSoft, with 1200 producable weapons.
Japanese free-to-play MMORPG Onigiri is launching on the Vita in Japan on the 21st of July. The game was previously released on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Early players will get a reward bundle including gacha tickets and boosters.
Two dates! Fallen Legion Flames of Rebellion will be available one week earlier than previously, so in the next store update. Preordering the PS4 sister game will get you a free copy of the Vita game. And Our World is Ended launches in Japan on the 9th of November for 6,800 yen.
And finally this week, a little bit of news that might or might not lead to something. Nippon Ichi Software are holding their 25th anniversary on the day of this update, and they have games to announce. Whether any will be for Vita remains to be seen, but live in hope. That's it for this week.
Due to a combination of my own laziness, lack of sleep, and being promised code that I was never sent, I haven't got videos done on Ninja Usagimaru or Mr Pumpkin Adventure, and I'm sorry if you were looking forward to those. However, I've left a poll in the comments; whichever game gets higher voted in the first few hours of this video's release I'll purchase and get a video done on - I'd do both but with 99Vidas and Fallen Legion out this week, and Splatoon 2 at the end of the week, I doubt I'd have time. Thanks to my Patrons, Richard, Joey, Chen, Eric, Felimban, Alan, Miguel, Alexander, Yury, Adam, David and Bliz. Like, subscribe, the rest of the outro.
