Interesting coincidence; I also bought my Vita for the same primary reason! Although it was much more recent; and I actually ended up getting Lemmings Touch first.
Wow, that is an odd coincidence then again it is easily one of the best games on Vita. I just thought to myself that if I had FFX on the go then I'd be more inclined to play it and grind it whereas if I'm sat at home, I'm more likely to play Lemmings or play on my Wii U.
It doesn't even bother me that X-2 isn't on the cartridge and is available via digital download code because I probably will never play that game anyway!
Can't believe I forgot about Fun being renamed to Easy...oops.
I refuse to play the levels out of order aswell, I was like that on the PSP version of Lemmings. I'm like that on the PS3 downloadable Lemmings and Lemmings Touch was no different.
I think they did that so that people didn't hit brick walls and put down and never play the game again. Let's face it, a lot of gamers these days have lower attention spans than the gamers who played Lemmings back in the 90s. I like that the option to skip levels is there but I'd personally never do it, the idea of getting stuck on a level is part of playing Lemmings in my opinion.
Got stuck on Postcard from Lemmingland, Feel the Heat, Triple Trouble, The Ascending Pillar Scenario, Down Along Up in that Order, Just A Minute and Save Me back in the day, but they stuck in my head when I wasn't playing the game and I was eventually able to solve them and because of that, I remember those levels!
By the way while we're on the subject of being stuck on levels, really enjoying your playthrough of Lemmings Reunion on Youtube at the moment namida, thanks for making those videos
