Jet Set Radio Announced for the PlayStation Vita!

The much-loved Dreamcast classic Jet Set Radio will be coming to PlayStation Vita Systems this summer, and will be playable for the first time at this year’s E3 show!

Jet Set Radio Vita

Jet Set Radio is an updated version of the celebrated SEGA Dreamcast original, featuring upgraded HD visuals paired with the original funky soundtrack that rocked the ears of gamers worldwide in 2000. The PlayStation Vita’s unique features provide new ways for gamers to interact with the environments of Tokyo-to, from touch functionality that makes spraying graffiti more natural to Vita camera integration. Jet Set Radio for PlayStation Vita is a handheld version that loses nothing in the way of content or experience in comparison with its console and PC brethren.

“The fan reaction to our recent reveal of Jet Set Radio has been incredible!” said Haruki Satomi, Senior Vice President of Digital Business at SEGA. “As Jet Set Radio is focused on creativity, the touch capabilities of the PlayStation VITA are proving to be a perfect fit.”

Play Sonic x Vapor in the new Nike “My Time Is Now” Video

Sonic x Vapor

SEGA’s iconic blue mascot can be found as part of the extended interactive content for the new Nike promotional campaign.  “My Time is Now” debuted on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and nikefootball.com for the first time on May 18th, and has already had over an incredible 10 million views.  The film features many of the elite players who will battle it out in Poland and Ukraine, and in the UK later this summer including Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, Andres Iniesta, Wesley Sneijder, Franck Ribery, Mario Götze, Mesut Özil, Yann M’Vila, Javier Hernandez and Danny Welbeck.

As the action unfolds, viewers can experience content in a unique interactive way through hidden tunnels designed to share athlete insights about their hunger to succeed and inspire young athletes to be better footballers.  This content will be accessible via the online version of the film at youtube.com/nikefootball and Sonic x Vapor can be found in one such tunnel.

Sonic x Vapor features Sonic the Hedgehog in a pair of Nike Mercurial Vapor football boots and the challenge is for Sonic to go as fast as he can and as far as he can, whilst kicking Nike footballs to defeat the opposition.  The inspiration behind the gameplay for Sonic x Vapor was the original Sonic The Hedgehog game, and since the Nike Mercurial Vapor boots have been specifically created to deliver explosive speed, who better is there to help promote them than the fastest hedgehog of them all?!
