@aimashita: My thoughts exactly. The official trailer listed it as being released alongside the physical PSP release but yet it is not available on the PSN store for my Vita. It does how ever list it as a PSP/Ps Vita release under the PSP section on my PS3……so if I download it to my PS3 will it be transferable to my Vita? I had bought the physical copy anyways for the bandana and the artbook, not to mention I do enjoy my collecting, but I had planned on actually playing it on my Vita. Will it be released next week on the Vita? I see the Gamestop release date for it has changed to the 26th. If I had known it wouldn’t be available for my Vita on day 1, I would have gotten express shipping with my Amazon pre-order, especially since that physical copy hasn’t even shipped yet according to Amazon.
Let us know Aksys! I still want my digital copy playable on my Vita like you said in the trailer! Until then I have to await for my Amazon pre-order to even ship…………………

Loaded up PSP > Found game straight away > Brought it > Loaded up PS Vita > Download List > Hakuoki: Warriors of the Shinsengumi “Cannot download using a PS Vita system.”
… So for now, stuck with playing on the PSP again, hoping for a patch to fix this (don’t have a PS3 to try download>transfer from that, *sigh*).

I’m buying this game once I can get my hands on it, but please let the next release be hakuouki zuisouroku! Please continue it! I love the game and I’m happy warriors of the shinsengumi is being released, but you guys are the only ones releasing actual otome games! Don’t stop!
I’m looking forward to Sweet Fuse! And Muramase.
