    Ah, it feels like March was barely a week ago, which admittedly it was due to my very late post. Anyway, it's April and I'm trying to get back on track again with my monthly list of current and upcoming titles for the PlayStation Vita. As usual it is focused on the North American market, with Europe and Japan exclusive titles in their own sections below.

    Another month, and another otome retail release, as Aksys brings us Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly. Download-wise we have a true Vita exclusive, indie adventure platformer Sir Eatsalot. There is also another NIS unconventional 2D action RPG title with Penny-Punching Princess, gritty comic adventure Metropolis: Lux Obscura, classic fighting game The King of Fighters '97, 2D dogfighter Rogue Aces, and punishing pixel art platformer League of Evil.

    Due to my late March post most game announcements were covered there, only new addition is side-scrolling adventure Chasm.

    And it looks like we're done! Come back next month for more otome with 7'scarlet.

    As a Vita owner these posts continue to be great. You are doing the Lord's work.

    @meteora3255: Thanks. I figure I'll keep doing them for as long as they keep putting out games for it, which seems like it could still be while. Not bad for a device that was declared dead 6 months after release.
