Title: Custom Ys Memories of Celceta Shockbox insert
Post by: Duo_R on February 03, 2014, 03:06:46 PM
ok - so I bought the PS Vita Limited Edition set - the only problem is the "box" is just terrible. Everytime I opened it up the box started to tear. I looked for something to store all the goodies in, and found that the Neo Geo MVS boxes fit perfect. It does make the box huge, but it stores everything pretty nice. Here is the custom insert I designed for it (just the template, I used an Ys wallpaper) , let me know your thoughts. I could have these professionally printed and possibly sell if there is enough interest.

No interest in these? =(   Hahah I guess I am the only one that is OCD on keeping my original box in good shape. The inside fits the book exact, and everything tucks in just perfect. I am waiting for the shop to print this today and see how it turns out.

Looks neat, but I don't have it yet (or a Vita) and I don't leave the boxes out.  Whenever I get it, I'll probably put the game on the shelf and toss the box/extras in the closet with the PSP ones.

Nope, not by me especially. XSEED Games can suck my nutz.

Haha yeah man you need to get a Veetaa! I wish the box matched the PSP games.

And yeah Wolf I know you hate Xseed! It's still Ys tho!  =)

I am also happy to share the art if anyone wants to print on their own.

I know man, I really don't get some of the decisions that they make these days. Why delay this? Why isn't there a 64 gig card available in the US yet? Why no slim model announced? lol

It's a great console, it has some annoyances but there are TONS of games to play off PSN. Just need to get a decent card.

It looks great but in the UK we're only getting the standard edition and that comes out on 21st Feb. Looking forward to it though and good work.

Agreed.  I'd rather play on a TV and save myself $100.

Looks pretty nice Duo_R!  I might be interested in a copy of the art, though where does one buy shockboxes as well and how much do they cost?  All my MVS games just sit in a pile since they're loosies.

This is why I don't like "special editions". Lots of random, useless shit I now need to find a way to store. AND it doesn't fit with my other games on the shelf. A friend of mine pre-ordered Tomb Raider for his PS3. What he ended up getting was some kind of box that is several millimeters taller than other PS3 boxes. He had no choice but to get that version. Glad I didn't pre-order and instead got the regular game brand new for $15. I will unwrap it and play it some day.

You can buy them here for $8 each:

I just got a batch of boxes with inserts the other day. The print quality was worse than my inkjet printer, so you're better off downloading the designs from their site and printing them yourself. Shipping can get expensive too. 8 boxes with inserts shipped to Canada wound up being $150.

I'm pretty sure I heard that Celceta is not compatible with the Vita TV unfortunately.  It'd be nice if they maybe figured out a way for a PS4 controller to work with the touch screen functions, either that, or a completely new controller.

The Japanese playstation site (http://search.jp.playstation.com/search?site=FIZ02WOB&design=2&group=1&charset=UTF-8&query=YS&x=0&y=0&psvtvCard=1&psvtvDownload=1&psvtvDownloadCard=0&period1=0&period3=0&onsaleAndSoon=0) shows "ps vita" and "ps vita tv" next to Ys, so I think that means it's compatible..... but maybe not..... I can't read them chicken scratches.  :mrgreen:

Alright, did myself some Googlin', found this off Gamefaqs, he doesn't state his source, but I know I didn't read it at Gamefaqs originally:

As of right now, 12/05/2013, the NTSC version of Ys: Memories of Celceta is NOT compatible with an imported Vita TV. The Japanese version of the game is, just not our English version, and likely won't until an American release of the Vita TV.

Yeah because of the touch screen unless they could patch it some how.

Further googlerins says the Japanese version is compatible because it was patched (also fixing some draw issues), so presumably the US version will be similarly patched when (if) the Vita TV comes to the US.

From what I heard, for Vita games to work with the TV unit they need to have a patch issued for them in advance, so Vita TVs from Japan aren't working with US Vita games here.

Also FYI I don't have any shock boxes for  sale but I know another member on here who has a few he says he would trade.
