Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack confirmed for Feb 21/22, $7.99

http://psv.vggen.com/news/news.php?id=10837

Was gonna skip on it if it was more than 10. This bodes well for me.

Wow, not the FEB. People are going to be asking about them all week, and can't sell them, even though they can sell the FEB's.

Kind of a stupid decision to put them on the shelf. I have a feeling some places will break street date on the other models besides the FEB tomorrow.

They will probably end up hiding them or putting away out back or behind the counter if they get too many questions about them.

 

[madmaxx350]

So my order shipped and i'm supposed to get it in the earlier part of the day, apparently because it shipped so early? I'll keep tracking this.


anyway HYPPEEEE, I'm going to go finish all my hw so I can skip classes and have time to play tomorrow

 

[DMeisterJ]

Loads of 3gwifi at walmart this morning but they would not sell me one. Would not ring up and I did not want to throw a fit and get the poor guy at the electronics department fired for putting them out early.

Wow.

Hopefully Wal Mart buckles and starts selling early.

 

[Baconsammy]

You suckers, err I mean early adopters, need to deliver the goods when it comes to Lumines and Rayman impressions. We're counting on you.

I wouldn't mind if Amazon had a little slip-up.

Sweet, will buy.

 

[Gravijah]

hahahaha

:/

 

[mr_toa]

I think it will go up with impressions from gaffers and we still have the "official launch" next week.

There will be plenty of gushing, complaints, tears, love, and speculation.

Hopefully! Walked through my entire town's set of Sony Stores, Gamestops and assorted gaming retailers yesterday; no one single Vita on display, nothing, zero, zip, nada.

Only thing me and the missus managed to conjure was a nasty cold for her :-/

Online preorder it is; screw brick and mortar!

 

[Skilletor]

I'd rather buy another game than spend money on a useless feature.

I'm in for the superior wifi model, 8gb card, umvc3, wipeout, and ninja gaiden. I'll probably pick up shinobido eventually.

So, apparently I'm a hypocrite.

FEB shipping soon.

Staring at Wipeout was too much.

 

[codhand]

I want to touch it, but I cannot.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Sweet, will buy.

I especially like the press release

"We're thrilled to have Mutant Blobs Attack as one of the first PlayStation®Vita downloadable titles, and for us to have hit our day-one launch goal," said Ryan MacLean, CEO of DrinkBox Studios. "Everyone at DrinkBox Studios is super happy with the end product and we decided to sell it for only $7.99. It's a crazy low price point. Insanely low. I'm insane. HUUAGGGGH Backflip!"

"We're also going to start selling the original About a Blob for $7.99 and a new bundle pack with About a Blob and bunch of DLC for $9.99. I'm crazy for setting these prices, but you'd be crazier for not taking advantage of them. Don't be like me."

Another one joins the FEB club. You're not alone. Many of your "wait a week" brethren have switched over to the dark side.

 

[popsicle_sundays]

Congrats! You've made the right decision.

Yes......yes.....that's it.

Thanks guys, you're making me feel better <3


Hopefully Gamestop doesn't pull some shit because I paid it off in full.

 

[BFIB]

Did you ask them how many they have for allotment? I believe they are filling pre-orders only. And since yours is paid off, I'd imagine you should be guaranteed one.

Tweet the pic to @yosp, maybe he will tell walmart to buckle

 

[dallow_bg]

Damn, how many people converted to FEB in the last 2 days?

 

[raven777]

Damn, how many people converted to FEB in the last 2 days?

I converted last night lol.

 

[popsicle_sundays]

I just called and was told that I can cancel it, so off I go during lunch

 

[JakkuFurosu]

With that avatar, you're not even going to mention the other 2 UMD game?

i was all wtf till i did a little googling...didnt realize there was even a 2 in the works for localization (i just got into the game a few days ago).Guess i should hop on xseeds mailing list.



BAH stupid gamestop called me yesterday to say my order was all set for Wednesday....shitty part is I cancelled FEB and changed store location for regular launch bundle last week so dunno what thats about...
gamestop just trolling and making it harder for me to wait one more soul train.

 

[The Elite]

Damn, how many people converted to FEB in the last 2 days?

I'd say around 10.

 

[Toki767]

Damn, how many people converted to FEB in the last 2 days?

Seems like quite a few. I've still held strong for next week.

 

[Got the Shakes]

Damn, how many people converted to FEB in the last 2 days?

From the sound of things, a lot of people have. I didn't even last that long since I switched mine last week.

 

[Castor Krieg]

Anyone getting Michael Jackson Experience? Post impressions!

 

[Captain N]

I just got invited to the PS Vita Launch Event!...Sadly I don't live in the Bay Area.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Seems like quite a few. I've still held strong for next week.

Same here. I honestly don't see any decent reason to justify picking up the FEB besides not being able to wait another week.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

You see, even the broken English is a sign of you starting to buckle. You don't even know what week it is!

I can't wait to holding that plump and juicy succulent Vita tomorrow.

 

[MikeE21286]

Damn, how many people converted to FEB in the last 2 days?

I converted yesterday. After I realized I was going to have all my games, accessories, and memory card by today or yesterday, I wanted to see how much it would cost me to move from a 3G Launch Bundle to the FEB bundle. In the end it was only about $15 more, plus I would get the Vita FEB case (which I really wanted of all the cases available). Not really a terrible deal if you ask me, so I went for it.

 

[Toki767]

There's a launch event? Is it in SF?

You see, even the broken English is a sign of you starting to buckle. You don't even know what week it is!

I wasn't aware there was broken English there...though I'm no English major.

yeah and its for media only, but I can't make it.

 

[GQman2121]

The prices people are paying on ebay for the 32 gig cards is insane. I'm actually thinking of picking a bunch up to flip this week. I could probably cover the entire cost of the system.

 

[Toki767]

Ah, if it were for the public I would've gone.

 

[Skilletor]

Same here. I honestly don't see any decent reason to justify picking up the FEB besides not being able to wait another week.

There is no reason. I'm just stupid. lol

I need to check this out.

If you've got the extra money and don't mind spending it then who am I to say anything?

 

[no_to_co]

Damn, how many people converted to FEB in the last 2 days?

I converted on Saturday. Could not be happier!

 

[Square Triangle]

Wait, why are these 32gb cards going for so much on eBay?

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I'm surprisingly interested in the launch titles. If the versions of Rayman Origins, Modnation Racers and Ninja Gaiden Sigma are real ports those are excellent reasons for me to buy Vita since I never played them on PS3. Furthermore, Gravity Rush looks pretty sweet. I'm certain that I'm going to buy Vita over 3DS. However, I'm not sure whether to do it at launch or buy the end of April. You guys think that the Vita will get much better by the end of april?

Well, it should have Gravity Rush by then. That's the #1 Vita game for me.

 

[Salaadin]

Same here. I honestly don't see any decent reason to justify picking up the FEB besides not being able to wait another week.

I was *this* close to switching but Id basically be paying 50 bucks for an extra week because I got a different case and a 32GB card.
Im insanely jealous of everyone who ordered the FEB though.

 

[MikeE21286]

Huh, that's weird. It's in stock at Amazon too.

Actually, I'm not seeing huge inflation on prices? Last "32gb Vita" auction ended at $99.95

edit:

Am I missing something, I'm not seeing these insane 32gb vita prices....

[Wazzim]

This is so painful.

 

[Snowballo]

Where are the review from Eurogamer?

 

[Toki767]

Wait, why are these 32gb cards going for so much on eBay?

Probably because Europeans don't want to wait.

 

[Square Triangle]

Yeah I switched over to the FEB last Friday. My impatience costs me more money.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

I was *this* close to switching but Id basically be paying 50 bucks for an extra week because I got a different case and a 32GB card.

They are getting Little Deviants. Don't be jealous.

 

[Tattooth]

I kept telling myself, I can wait for a price drop, but I don't think I can. Between that Giantbomb livestream yesterday showing the games off, good UK PSN pricing for downloadable games, and this thread, I've really been hyped up this past week.

I do have a question about PSP games, are the prices on the UK PSN good or are they still close to full price, I can't think of many games as examples but how much is Peace Walker on UK PSN? I'm away from my PS3 at the moment and good PSP prices would really tip me over the edge.

I'm in !

Nobody needs to say anything. I'm berating myself. lol

Stupid impatience.

The current auction ending next is at $220 US.

 

[Cookie18]

I'm very envious of all of you who are getting the FEB tomorrow. Just one week to go until we get it in the UK though. Really hope it ships early from Amazon since I've paid for 22nd delivery.
