PS Vita US Launch Details (Launch Games, Accessory Pricing)

Depends on the price and the size. If they are $10 and under a gig each I'll probably grab both.

I doubt either will be over 750mb tbh. SSD is out already so maybe JapanGAF can help us out here.

EDIT: for reference, Rayman is about 900MB and Lumines is about 700MB.
 
I keep forgetting about Stardust and Escape Plan. My Vita day one software lineup is amazing. I look back at all of the games I purchased with consoles when I got them, and I never came home with more than one or two, max, and I've never gotten a console on release date, it's always been 6-12 months after release, and even then, I only picked up one or two games.

I'll have a library of 5 or 6 games (two of them PSP classics) before I even open up the box and boot up my Vita (Uncharted and Rayman I'm buying retail/Amazon, Shinobido 2 I'm on the fence about, but might cave and buy retail day one, and I'm buying SSD and Escape Plan as soon as they are available on the PSN, downloaded, and simply waiting to be copied to my Vita day one).

And that's still not all I'm getting during Feb and March. I'll definitely snag UMvC3 from my job, since I get an employee discount, and I may also get BlazBlue. Gravity Rush would be mine day one if it was releasing on launch, as well as Unit 13.

That's a lot of games to get within a month of launch. It, literally, took me months to build up a library of 10 games for my PS2, PS3, Xbox, 360, Gamecube, and PSP. And I was hard pressed to even come up with that many during that first year. I'll have reached that milestone in three weeks or so on my Vita. Crazy.

I just hope the software support can continue to be as strong throughout the year (and so far it looks like it will be). I'm very impressed with the lineup of the Vita so far. There seems to be something for everyone to start off on, and build a fanbase on with some of the new IPs being launched with the console.
 
MotorStorm RC is also a launch title, right? I think I will get it and SSD.

Escape Plan looks interesting, I will check the demo (if available).

Anything else on PSN day one?
 
Just realized I didn't post what I'm getting.

Canadian Vita bundle with Little Deviants and the other stuff
Uncharted
Hot Shots Golf

All that for only $325 + tax is pretty awesome. I also have an Uncharted pre-order ($26+tax) and a Modnation pre-order ($25+tax) but I don't need either of them since I'm getting Uncharted for free and don't want Modnation any more since there's no online. I guess I'll order Wipeout afterall since I'm no longer getting a racing game. I haven't ordered a bigger memory card yet because I'm building up my amazon.ca credit at the moment.
 
Unit 13 is march 6th so I think thatll replace my Rayman preorder. My launch titles will be HSG, Wipeout, Super Stardust, and Escape Plan. Then Ill grab Unit 13 when that launches.
 
I've decided on the Wi-Fi model. Here are my launch purchases:

PSVita Wi-Fi
PSVita Cradle
PSVita Starter Pack w/4GB card
Hot Shots Golf
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3
Wipeout 2048
Dynasty Warriors Next
Super Stardust (PSN)

I'm waiting to see if I can grab Uncharted for $40 (I know Toys R Us has it for preorder at that price but I don't want to order it through them) and Lumines for $30 or less. I don't mind waiting for those two since I'll have plenty to play with. And the 4GB card should suffice since I don't plan on purchasing very many PSN or digital PSP/Vita games in the next year or so.
 
Really? With touch controls?

Not sure if serious



I own it on the iphone, ipad, ps3 and PC (as stated earlier in this thread). The best playing version without a doubt, is the ipad version. Absolutely perfect touch control game. Second would be the iphone (screen is a little small but still better than using a mouse or controller). Third is pc with a mouse. 4th is a controller.

Am serious
 
My software list keeps growing, but I have to show some restraint and not snag everything day one. I can easily wait until March to pick up my next set of games, and spread them out. I really don't need all of them day one, the ones I'm getting will be plenty enough, but damn the temptation to splurge and pick up all the ones I'm interested in is so strong...

I don't think Motorstorm is launch window. But I could be wrong. There hasn't been much info on it since the reveal.



Escape Plan and SSHD are definites off the store, for me. Wipeout, HSG, Katamari, and Modnation are definites off the store also, but i felt like they deserved their own sentences. Rayman and FIFA will be my disc based games as both will have a limited shelf life with me so I'll sell them back on amazon at some point. Uncharted, Shinbido, Ridge Racer and F1 will be gamefly'd.

Lumines, Dungeon Hunter, Army Corps from Hell and a few others are on my radar when they drop in price.

MLB the Show, Unit 13, Gravity Daze, Littlebigplanet and Ruin are day one, whenever that day is.


Basically im buying everything, eventually.
 
Ohhh. I didn't realize he was implying that touch controls were bad for PvZ.

No way. Best version is iPad.
I'll way for Vita version to go on sale.
 
List time:
3G First Edition Bundle
32 gb memory card
PSV in ear headset
Vita card case
PS protective film
Uncharted:GA
Hot Shots
Escape Plan
Super Stardust

MLB The Show on pre-order
Optimistically keeping an eye on Unit 13
LBP is a definite day 1

Adding up the total for launch is a pretty hefty sum, and that's before knowing the prices for the PSN titles. I am so hyped right now, the wait is agonizing.
 
What do you guys wager the expansion port will be used for? I'm thinking we might see a better camera or something.

If it isn't video out then maybe it's just for getting into recovery mode like someone speculated before. There really aren't too many things left they could possibly add to the Vita.

I think it's just a option for them in the future. They may not even have any plans for anything specific yet but know that having the option is very handy.

I still cannot believe Modnation doesn't have online. That is just inexcusable.

The devs are looking at a patch to fix that. Though less than 10% used that feature in the PSP version which is why it was dropped.
 
It's a puzzle game from a team that worked on Fat Princess. You guide the two characters to safety... or into a gruesome death. Developers say it makes heavy use of both touch screens, and you don't have direct control over the two dudes.

Here's a trailer:

looks fun and it seems like you will always be busy.

I think I'll get more games like this for the Vita....there are some games that I passed up on for the PSN that I have always wanted to play....

games like Braid and such. Does anyone know if PSN games like those will be launching eventually as well, or will I have to settle for having to leave my PS3 on, and using remote play. :(

I cant tell you where I read it, but apparently motorstorm is rubbish, which is a real dissapointment to me as I really wanted it, as I used to race nitro cars and aeroplanes in competitions. Apparently the designers decided to go with steering direction on the LEFT analogue, and acceleration on the RIGHT?!
Anyone in the world knows that remote control cars are accel on the left, steer on the right!
 
I didn't know you weren't directly in control of the characters in escape plan. Kinda disappointed in that.

Thats how I felt too when I watch the trailer. I've never been a fan of games where you have to manipulate the environment instead of the character to achieve a goal. They just don't "click" with me, like Echochrome.
