Bioshock Vita will likely never exist. In February Ken Levine said the game hadn't even begun preproduction, and since then Vita's not exactly been a roaring success in terms of sales so unless Sony's footing the bill it likely won't exist.

When a handheld launches, it's usually a vicious circle: system has pretty bad lineup, sales start slow, no one wants to develop because of slow sales, no one wants to buy because of no software :/ 3DS DID have a large line-up of "games to be developed" (most being ports), however sales started slow due to both price at the time, and software. 3DS not only had a pricedrop, but had Mario and whatnot get released. Vita needs "that game" to get bigger, have people see value in it, and thus more games will be developed for it, rather than titles like this to be stuck in a sort of delay.

I think it will exist, but from some crappy developer that will barely use the license.

I was going to say they probably value the IP too much to do that. But then I remember the talk about them making like 6 Bioshock games and turning it into a series before the second game was even released.

Play-Asia changed my order status to "Preparing Order". I couldn't be more excited, it's been months since I was this excited with games like I am now.

This guy has virtually videos for all PS Vita games demoed on Sony's E3 booth, and it's worth the watch:

I hope they come up with more than just that for Japan too. The shelf space for Vita games here looks like the shelf space for psp games at gamestop.

TGS can't come soon enough

TGS will crush my heart, because they'll probably announce games that won't make it over, like they do every year.

So you're saying TGS will be made up of nothing but Sega properties, Tales of games, and Suikoden titles? :P

[Shizuka]

Pretty much, along with Tri-Ace games.
