PlayStation Vita Japanese Launch Thread. "APOCALYPTIC!" says concerned Nuclear Muffin

I bought my Vita at launch, but I still can't use it for anything because of the lack of a memory card. Don't know why, but I just forgot to buy one at the time.

I'm hoping there is a place in or around Akihabara that still has them. But if not, how long should I expect to wait for stores to get more of them? Even the smaller game stores where I live (Shin-Koiwa), are all out of them. Shucks.
 
Lame. I initally thought I can publish comments myself for my friends to see, instead of commenting on and liking auto-logged entries.

Sigh, just watch every pub and dev ignore it then.

How many days was the PSP tracked that week? Pretty weak showing.

someone else may have answered this, but I'm pretty sure there were wide-spread production/stock issues w/ the PSP when it came out (I want to say it had something to do with the screen). I had pre-ordered a Japanese one well in advance and I don't recall getting for a few weeks after release, I don't think the shortages were limited to importers, either.
 
Vita actually sold so few units that it ripped a hole of negative energy out of the universe and is sucking in sales numbers of other devices. PS2 is down to 1 mill, DS 500k...it's apocalyptic. Nothing will survive.

CERN are certainly kicking themselves right about now.

Are you saying that we have finally discovered the origin of dark matter and dark energy? Alert Neil DeGrasse Tyson!

What sort of information is logged in "Activities" under the live area for UMvC3? Does it show who won the match or does it go further like "picking up a shield" and show who won each bout?
So far "Activities" seems to be limited to "Your friend has started playing So-and-so" and "Your friend unlocked So-and-so achievement". I guess there is scope to change it in the future, but that's all I've seen so far.
 
I just watched twentytwo22's UMvC3 video...

The thing is I've never been much for fighting games (probbably because I'm not very good at them) but these look so good. Could someone recommend which would be better for an occasional fighting game gamer? Btw...I have a couple of fighting games for the PS3 and play them every now and then but I like the idea of fighting games on handhelds (especially when they look as good as these)

I have the same problem, would appreciate some input from other players.

Could someone upload a video of a movie trailer (not a cartoon) running on PS Vita? I can't find one on YouTube! I really want to see this.
OLED blow everthing away if it comes to inky blacks and popping colors! Man, i can't wait for a 46/50" OLED 3D screen, only then i will buy a new TV.

My Japanese is a little rusty but the words I managed to pick up are "apocalyptic" and "DOA".
 
I love it when people post Japanese text without translations. It's almost as if every one who reads GAF knows Japanese.

So i just placed my order at my usual place in Singapore. HK set is expected to arrive here this friday. What's the general consensus on the games to get for English speaking folks? Getting MVC3 and Uncharted, with a budget for 2 more games

THANK YOU!
That Katamari PV one was impossible to find.
In fact, I'd already checked the place the gold seems to be.
What a bunch of cheeky gits.
 
The Japanese text is about a little contest/game that they have going on in the PSN Store on Vita where you have to search for raffle tickets, it's just a list of where the raffle tickets are hidden (like one is under PCEngine Archives). It's kind of annoying if you don't know where they are because the last one is super well hidden (actually I still can't find it, so I must have missed something), the prize is only 1000yen too :P

Currently downloading Blaz Blue at what must be slower speeds than my old 14.4k modem, 1:15am and counting and have yet to try a game LOL.

Kind of regretting not buying a film protector for the screen, I bought a case but not film...I somehow forgot how much I would need to be swiping at the screen

Tried the web browser, some sites are recognizing it as a PC browser which is kind of bad (because it's not)
 
Just got a shipping notification from Play-Asia....should get my marked-up, overpriced, why-the-hell-did-I-not-wait-two-months Vita this week!

Oh man. This shit looks better than Uncharted.
