Cloudberry Kingdom is one of those games that is guaranteed to pick up a niche following with its difficulty and side-scrolling action. Unfortunately, handheld gamers won't dive into the action until a month from now.
CK is currently available on PlayStation 3, and was part of Sony's special preorder deal earlier this summer. Pwnee Studio's president confirmed that there would be a version on the PS Vita.
Via PlayStation LifeStyle:
Though it didn’t come out today, a PlayStation Vita version of Cloudberry Kingdom is on the way, with Jordan Fisher, President and Co-Founder of Pwnee Studios, saying, “The whole studio is working full time on the Vita version right now. We’re going to get it out as fast as we can, but at this point is probably a month away. The plan is take one night off celebrating the launch on PS3, then back to work [Wednesday] morning.”
While it's understandable that it takes a good amount of time to port the game over the Vita, it just further shows how much that the handheld is an after thought. By releasing the console edition now, which most gamers that own a Vita also have a PS3, you already lose so many sales that could of been given to the handheld.
That's a big loss considering how much Vita is struggling, and it's now becoming a major issue if Sony ever wants to try and revive its handheld that deserves more love.
