Touch My Katamari will be a day-one PlayStation Vita game photo

The Katamari Damacy title for PlayStation Vita has been given a rather amazing name: Touch My Katamari. Better yet, the game will be available on February 22 alongside the PlayStation Vita's debut in North America, Canada, Europe, and Latin America.

I'm already on board by default given that this is coming to a twin-stick handheld. Not having to wait months after the Vita drops to play it? Fabulous.

Hmmm. I missed out on Katamrai in my time but, I remember it being about as big as Parappa the Rappa. I sort of wonder what it is all about. I will do a youtube search on it later.

I love the katamari series. If I pick up a vita ill definitely get this. We love katamari and katamari ps3 are my favorites. Beautiful katamari though was awful in the sense that half the game was locked away.

And here I was thinking Katamari Forever was the last Katamari game, judging by how things played out.

When did Canada separate from North America? I know the term already excludes Mexico almost all the time but now America wants it all to themselves?

Haha celica I can't believe you were the first one to mention...

Touch My Katamari sounds like a request. Definitely best name ever.

I can't wait for Touch My Metal Gear or Touch My Solid Snake.

I touch my Katamari and it gets bigger, but if it doesn’t get big enough my father is angry with me.

That sound so dirty, especially when I think about how much detail they spent on painting the dad's crotch in the first game lol

Wonderful news.

And I recently got an email from Sony about the Vita launch date that had Uncharted, Hot Shots, Gravity Daze (I think), and UMvC3 listed as day one titles.

Honestly, this looks to be one of the best system launches of all time from a software perspective.

Too bad the Katamari series has had absolutely nothing new, nor has it been even worthwhile to play since the second game.

i would like to see something new with katamari as well. its an awesomely fun game to mess around in. but its always had its little issues.

maybe an actual open world katamari where you start at the microscopic level and get bigger. i know some levels were kinda like this, but not quite open world. you had to reach a certain size before moving on. i want one where i can stay small and move around a huge level and grow big somewhere else.

or maybe a co-op/online katamari?
