Release: Superfluous Returnz Vita port by Rinnegatamante

PS Vita developer Rinnegatamante has released another port for the PS Vita, this time Superfluous Returnz. This is a new Android port straight to Vita using TheFlow’s wrapper (a mechanism that allows to un Android apps natively on the PS Vita, without emulation, allowing for impressive performance). Thanks to this system, we’ve seen other great releases recently including The Conduit, Mass Effect Infiltrator, Dead Space, Fahrenheit,  Crazy Taxi, Rockstar’s Bully and GTA San Andreas, the Anomaly Series, as well as Final Fantasy ports by Rinnegatamante and Frangar.

What’s Superfluous Returnz for PS Vita
