Ok I just canceled my wifi and pre-ordered FEB..lol

Its really weird since I didn't want any of the extra stuff on this bundle. lol

Eh, you could probably sell the case if you don't want it for a decent price. Little Deviants sadly will probably not have much resale value. I am going to use the 4 gig card for psn and ps1 games when they start working on the vita.
 
So im not sure what the fuck is going on, but after hours of phone calls to amazon customer service in attempt to get my FEB set up for release date delivery and getting absolutely shot down.....

Release date delivery is selectable again.

So i canceled my original order and placed a new one. Fucking amazon and their helpless customer service.

me too ._.


I'm just getting the FEB so I can play it a early and over the coming 3-day weekend. Not planning to sell the 4GB or LD but I probably should. I've thought about waiting a week for the 3G bundle and put the saved $50 to Lumines but that week would be tough to wait out.




The bonus of getting it a week early is extra stuff.

:(

LOL yea...I just went ahead and ordered it. I know I am probably blowing $50 but whatever xD
 
Here's a question that I think needs to be answered and put in the OP:

Will the Vita be compatible with the PS3 Adhoc Party app? It would be awesome to play Monster Hunter Portable 3rd online using two sticks and on dat OLED screen @_@
 
So the games aren't that safe in the VIP case?

They will be fine. But the VIP doesn't have any dedicated slots to hold anything. The VIP is the glasses case style one that just holds the vita and has room inside for stuff but no dedicated slots. Thrustmaster also sell an Uncharted one and a black on which is identical to the uncharted one which both have cut outs for carts.

As I said, the carts will be fine in the VIP on their own, but I don't want them sliding around and being prone to falling out when I open the case. That's why I ordered the little headphone pouch to put them all in. They all stay together and I'll have leather sliding over the screen rather than plastic.

I'm very nearly about to order the 3G version! After getting over the whole memory card, Near location data with WiFi worries, and 3G just in case decisions I am now worried about this whole "disabled network features" business. I mean it's fucking stupid and defeats the purpose of an always on device, but my luck they are going to fix this in a later revision.

The disabled network thing is nothing to do with the hardware not being capable. Devs disabled it to save battery. That shuuld be an option and I hope it gets patched into every game that does it.

Adhoc Party on the Vita works for PSP games. It does not currently work for Vita games.

It would be awesome to play MHFU with 2 sticks and the OLED screen online.
 
I upgraded my headphones to these:

Shure SE425

Should be brain-wrattling.
 
I don't suppose anyone in the UK with a Vita has tried either of the PSP pinball games on PSN yet to see fi they're compatible with the Vita? One is Williams Pinball of Fame and I think the other is the Gotlieb one.

Obviously don't expect you to buy them just to try but if you've already bought them in the past and own a Vita then I would appreciate someone checking it out for me. I'd love a good pinball game on the GO! go.

The Pinball Arcade is due to launch around the launch of the vita according to Farsight. Its the same game thats on the iphone released last week, and made by the same people who made the pinball games you are asking about.
 
Willpower. Willpower shall reward me not being stuck with Little Deviants and a 4gb card.

Sold them the same day I pre-ordered sometime last week, $25 for LD and 18 for card.

FEB
FIFA
HSG
Uncharted
Lumines
32gb
Cradle
*all paid with Amazon credit,
 
I feel like I am more excited for the actual hardware and its abilities rather than the games.

Might end up with only one game at launch, at some point I had at least 3-4 in mind.
 
Ok, so a couple of questions that are related:

1: does anyone have the Sony DRBT-50 Bluetooth headsets and do they work with the vita? They have great sound for BT and wireless sounds like a dream for the vita.

2: how much does using Bluetooth drain the battery? Any solid comparisons?

I'm fairly sure bluetooth headsets work, but keyboards do not.

I believe they confirmed BT stereo headphones work in the last PS blogcast.
 
How do you tranfer saves from a PSP GO to the Vita? Is it possible?

I know you can do it using a PS3. You plug your Go into the PS3 and copy the saved game to the PS3. Then you plug the Vita into the PS3 and use content manager to copy the save to the Vita.

I don't know if this works on a PC though as I'm not sure if the PC version of Content manager is even able to communicate with a Go and Media Go wont see a Vita.

Hope this helps.
 
Will all the launch titles and accessories be available at retail on Feb. 15th?

I'm just planning my store-visiting strategy if EB games still believes Rayman is still only for sale on March 1st or that the screen protectors aren't out until the 22nd.

you can do it with media go but in a weird way. here's what i did.


1. back up game saves from psp/pspgo to pc in mediago.
2. open vita content manager.
3. look in the preferences and make note of the directory vita game saves are stored on your computer (mine was in a folder called "6aad1faa75000a0a" in a folder called "PSAVEDATA").
4. copy files from the media go location into the vita game saves folder (which is probably empty if you're doing this after just getting a vita).
5. connect your vita to your pc and open content manager.
6. choose to copy content from your pc to your vita.
7. choose applications.
8. choose saved data (psp/other).
9. yaaaaay you're done.

How are you feeling about the Vita these days, btk? Enjoying it?
 
thanks. unfortunately its sold out. This is suppose to be the best screen protector for vita rite now....I wished they release in US amazon.

I do wish that also, I can't believe that many imports sites even play-asia doesn't have that one listed. I still have an order from 1/13 on two Hori cases for the PS Vita from them and i'm still waiting for them to get in stock.
 
Oh man, I just looked at the soundtrack for Lumines. I'm definitely getting a Vita. I don't think Day 1 because of money but damn, the launch lineup is solid.
