Not open for further replies.
Now that it's been blatanlty confirmed that Gravity Rush is NOT a launch title (Thank You GameStop), that leaves me with one spot open.

...May as well get FIFA 11 alongside Rayman Origins to compensate.
 
real triggers !!!

lol

Not a battery pack no buy !
 
That upcoming massive Final Fantasy sale on EU/AU PSN makes me glad I preordered the 32gb :D

Mixed feelings though, since I preordered at the only place that was willing to ship it to Australia without massive shipping fees, videogamesplus.ca D:
What were their shipping fees to Oz? I'm tossing up the best options between stores like VGP or Amazon+Shipping forwarder. The Australian launch price of the machine and games are ridiculous, so doing my best to import. I'd likely still come out on top with higher shipping costs.
 
I think at launch I will going with this:

Vita Wifi
Uncharted
Super Stardust
Maybe Escape Plan
Memory Card (one of the cheaper ones... I will upgrade that later)

I would like to get Lumines, but I think I will wait for a price drop. Just didn't think it'd be $40.
 
Im getting:

Vita Wifi
32GB Memory card
Hot Shots Golf
Rayman Origins
Super Stardust
Charger Cradle
Pull and Go Folio

As much as I hate spending all this money, Im glad Sony announced the price so early. It allowed me to gradually save up random change, trade ins, gift cards, etc. I got my Vita down to 17 bucks but Ill have it paid in full by 2/22 with some leftover to throw on the memory card. Shouldnt be too bad.
 
Updated list:
Vita Wifi
16 Gb memory card
Charging cradle
Headset earphones
Hori Screen Protector
Pull and Go Folio

Wipeout 2048
Super Stardust Delta
Lumines: Electronic Symphony

man i really dont want to think of how much this is gonna be.
 
Soooo undecided on what I am getting with my Vita, but right now it looks like:

Vita WiFi
Wipeout 2048
Super Stardust
Escape Plan
Maybe Uncharted, may wait for a price drop.
16 or 32 GB card
Hori Screen Protector
Eyeing that grip with the battery pack inside

That is a lot of money
 
Guess I'll update my list too:

3G/Wifi First Edition Vita
32 gb memory card
Starter Kit
Extra Vita/USB cable
Vita dock

I still owe $140.00 for all of those items, paid off most of it with trade-ins. As far as games go, I'll be renting Uncharted from Gamefly and downloading the following:

Lumines
Hot Shots Golf
Wipeout 2048
Super Stardust Delta

Not sure how I'm going to pay for those yet. But I'm leaning towards ebaying off some rare games like Metroid Prime Trilogy, Super Mario All-stars Anniversary and Demon's Souls deluxe.
 
WiFi First Edition bundle
32GB Memory Card
Uncharted (Free)
Hot Shots Golf ($24.99)
Wipeout 2048 ($24.99)
Lumines
Super Stardust
Escape Plan

Might skip out on the memory card for now.
 
Just put in my preorder for WipEout 2048 since apparently Sony just raised the price for it to $40 on their store. So I preordered it at Amazon with whatever credit I have, still have $12 to cover but I'll get that paid for soon.

So far, all from Amazon:

Vita Wi-Fi
8 GB memory card
Uncharted
Hot Shots Golf
Lumines
WipEout


My out of pocket cost is criminal still so far...thank you Amazon gift cards


Also plan to get Super Stardust on PSN. All paid for too thanks to that PSN free credit thing a few months ago
 
Bought that hori protective filter, I hope it's as good as some say it is.


You guys paying off everything is baffling to me, I'll keep milking out that interest until launch.
 
I don't even own a Wii anymore to play the Prime Trilogy or All-Stars Anniversary. And sadly, Demon's Soul has been in my pile of shame since the day it released. Might as well throw them on eBay, right?

I can't speak for you but I would definitely regret doing something like that.

Demon's Souls deluxe is the only one out of the three that I'm hesitant on, I'd like to play it... one day. But then again, not sure how long Atlus USA will keep those servers up.

Okay, I need to stop my thread derailing talk.

We are less than a month away from release and retailers still seem confused as to what is releasing when and at what price. Doesn't speak well to the communication between retailers and Sony.

Poop. Didn't realize SonyStyle raised the price on Wipeout, too. Went ahead and locked it in for $30 at Amazon.
 
This is kind of a stupid question, but are there (quality, english) reviews out for vita games (from imported vita, i would assume)?

I am not sure what to pick. So far, uncharted, and perhaps wipeout, though I always *sucked* at it (and am not a big fan of 'weapons-enhanced racing games', except for interstate 76, which is not a racing game at all). I am also tempted by lumines and hot shots golf - never played either but GAF seems to like them - do we have impressions of the vita versions?
 
Everyone else is doing lists

Currently thinking:

Console (undecided on 3G or wifi) - early 21st birthday present from parent
16GB memory card - Preordered
Uncharted: Golden Abyss - Preordered
Wipeout 2048
Escape Plan
Super Stardust Delta
Everybody's Golf - Will probably get off PSN for convenience and because i know i will keep going back to it
Rayman Origins

+ probably a few other PSN games if there's some decent stuff day one :)
 
$39.99 WipEout MSRP confirmed.

Gah Sony. I'm guessing $29.99 games are dying here.

It's strange, it seemed like $29.99 was the MSRP since almost everyone had it for that price right when PS Blog announced the launch lineup. Good thing I just preordered it cause I was gonna wait a while to grab it.

It's $29.99 on the email Sony sent out.

Seriously. Ugh. What the fuck man?
 
HSG is at 40$ on Sony Style...

Son of a bitch...

Frak it, I don't want to be carrying a bunch of Vita game cards. Jus the current single player game I'm playing in my Vita and all my multiplayer games on the 32 gb card. I'll just have to suck it up for whatever the PSN versions end up costing.
 
So happy I preordered and have the 29.99 locked on HSG and Wipeout, still kicking myself at the 49.99 uncharted.

All Paid:

1st Ed Model
Wifi Model

32 GB memory card
16 GB memory card

Uncharted
HSG
Wipeout
Rip Racer
ACoH
DW Next
Ninja Gaiden
 
Uncharted soon to be $60?

Kidding. Seriously though, terrible news. I preordered Hot Shots Golf on Best Buy's site using a gift card, I hope they honor the lower price because that and Wipeout are both showing up as $40 there. The price hike is definitely looking universal =/
