The Vita Effect

This is officially the 200th comic! When I read about the new Vita colors I was immediately reminded of Glitch's introduction. The system may have flopped hard, but it holds a special place in my heart because without it Glitch might not have come about. Glitch's intro comic: www.thegamercat.com/comic/its-not-old-its-retro/

    2. Ohhhh I get it Because Gamercat got that bad gaming consol and it turned into Making Best Friends Forever with glitch because of him getting the gaming consol he found himslef a brother so the consol was worth every moment or Penny

  14. I don’t understand why people don’t like the PS Vita. It is my favourite console, and I have put countless hours of playtime on it :( I wish more people liked it so that they would keep supporting it and keep releasing games for it.

    1. It is the absolute best if you like JRPGs!

    2. I’m not much of a handheld gamer, but of the two big-box handhelds out there(Vita and 3DS), the Vita is my favorite. I like the feel of the console in my hands, and the layout of the controls.

    3. personally i wish what they give to the vita more games :(

      but i still love it, currently plaiying grand kindom, and im loving it, making me play the vita oftem because how that game is

  15. Dos feels.

  16. “Speaking of which, shouldn’t you be a little bigger by now?” “nah I’m made with Nintendo parts, I never age”

  17. Wow. The feels, man. The feels.

  18. Awwww! That’s so cute.
    And now Glitch must puke.

  19. Damnit, them onion cutting ninjas are back again.

    Curse you, Onion Ninjas!

  20. Tears imminent.

  21. Aw…. I just want to hug them both now

  22. This made me tear up.

  23. when I see things like this it makes me want my cats to live inside and play video games for the rest of their lives.

  24. Naw that is so sweet!~

  25. Are there Glitch-themed PS Vita skins? Because I would buy the heck out of one of those!

  26. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 *squish* <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

  27. The Video Game Machine

    Soo cute!

  28. I actually bought a PS Vita
    I’ve never used it once and the only “game” I own for it is a light novel all in Japanese.

  29. I see a lost opportunity to redraw the old panels for the flashback we have here. It would be awesome to see them in the new style! Of course, letting us see part of the strip in the original form along with the rest refreshed is an interesting design choice too, allowing for us to compare how the style has evolved (especially with the previous comic in memory). I just kinda wish we got to view how would it look, were you to draw it now.

  32. I almost never comment on stuff cause I’m afraid my voice will be drowned out by the rest of the internet commenting as well, but this comic made me physically “Dawwwww” -Raises glass- Here’s to 200 comics, and to 200 more in the future! Salut!

  39. I still use my Vita regularly for a variety of games, although they’re much more frequently getting ported to PS4, 3DS or PC — or released there in the first place — these days.

  40. Oh Jesus, my shriveled up heart just grew ten fold.

  41. HEY ITS THE TOOTY FOOT

  42. Awww. Sweetest Comic EVER.

  43. Happy 200th comic! ^_^

  44. For a few seconds, I thought he had PTSD about how Glitch was right all along (“Can it play Pokémon?”)
    But then the true meaning hit me ;-;

  45. The fact that Gamercat has his old game and doesnt regret buying it is becuase he wouldnt have met glitch and Glitch would probaly be dead without a home so the fact he doesn’t regret buying the game means he never regrest Getting a Brother

  46. Hhhh

    This is killing me with cuteness.

  47. I love the ones where we first met glitch.

  48. I still love my Vita. One of the most underrated gaming consoles of the last years.

  54. Video games bring people together.
