PS3 + Vita + FFXIV
So I believe Yoshi has talked about apps coming out for cell phone. Such as Market look up, and Token app for logging in. With that in mind I wonder if Yoshi has thought about making the PS3 and Vita work together while you play FFXIV. Could use the Vita for mini map/ UI stuff. Also say your out in the field doing stuff, and you want to update retainers or buy some stuff, and have it sent to the new delivery npc for you to pick up. Don’t think SE could but since PC is getting UI plug ins, could find a way for players to make UI plug-ins for PS3 to be used on vita’s screen that could easily be loaded to vita. Not sure if Sony would let that though :( If nothing else I feel cross play with PS3 <-> Vita could be useful for FFXIV. I know there is no way for something like this to be in place for ARR but maybe down the line it could be something for Yoshi and other Devs to look into. Discuss your thoughts about this.

sounds like this would work alot better on Wii-U
-
god help me I'd consider a Wii U if that was the case...
-
Well the game Isn’t be made for the Wii-u atm so yeah, but even so say it would come to Wii-U this idea would be nice + could use same stuff for PS3 + vita. Also idk how much the wii-u pads will be able to handle since it isn’t out yet. but I’m sure vita could do more then wii-u pads.
-
Well Vita can link with the PS3 and you could play PS3 games on it. Well not yet, some hackers found out a way but sony trying to stop it.
-
As far as I know Sony been saying anything Wii-U can do PS3/Vita can. Kind of why I could see Sony helping SE in making something for FFXIV to use both with. Would be a huge selling point to ppl playing FFXIV on ps3 to buy a vita as well so Sony wins in end and FFXIV is better with it ;x

One advantage PS Vita has is that it is mobile, so you can send messages, and plan events with free company or with LS while away from home. The second advantage is that it could be used as a mini touch screen pad or mini map, or as a controller.
It even has built in mic so you can voice chat, but I don't see SE allowing voice chat features anyways. :(
-
Oh wow never thought of that free company uses. Also Mic useage woudl be cool but I beleave it was said allready it was hard to brign voice chat into PS3 FFXIV, Vita might be able to do that.
-
You technically wouldn't need an app for that. Since PC can use vent/ts/etc, you can think of the VITA's party app as your chat app. It could help that way. Personally, I would love to see some function of ffxiv on the VITA.

Rather stick with the phone apps, better and simpler dev options, it doesn't need to be hardware intensive (as I said in a previous thread) a very basic html page that needs decent refresh rate.
$10 app vs $300 lemon
