Over on the PS Blog, DrinkBox;s Graham Smith said, “The trophies are VERY different. We kept a few of our favs, but changed a ton.” As well, he addressed the question of whether or not there would be an incentive of some sort for those who bought the PS3/PS Vita version:
Our preference would be to offer an incentive for owners of the original Guacamelee!(PS3/PSVita), but just trying to determine if this will be possible for us. We’ll post info as soon as we know.
