I'm in a harsh position. I've bought the 3DS at launch and barely played it. I've been fortunate enough to be able to sell it at a high price just before the price drop.

Now I feel like I want a Vita, but I fucking know I will barely play it. On one hand, I have this urge to buy it. On the other hand, I know this will be one huge waste of my money.

I hate this god damn feeling where I feel empowered by hype toward an electronic device.

Don't buy stuff you won't use.
You should probably stay out of this thread.

I feel like yourself, but I don't have the same overwhelming need to buy it, just overcome your consumerist needs and put it off until a later time.

The feeling that you've wasted your money is worse than the feeling of indecision.
 
Sure this has been answered a billion times, but how do I transfer games from my Go to the Vita? Just download em all to my PS3 and transfer that way?

If it makes you feel any better I bought a 3DS and barely used it... and I absolutely adore the vita and haven't turned on steam or my ps3 since getting it. I doubt that will last forever, but I can safely say it's a far more compelling experience than the 3DS. Well, for my taste in games, atleast.
 
It's not that expensive though. He imported it to the Netherlands and shipping was $ 7.90
May not be cheap, but Hori is a quality brand

Oh, I totally agree but I find it stupid that the Japanese Vita accessories are "superior" and minimalistic compared to the US accessories. I plan on importing that case soon.

Just hold out until there's a game you really want. It's all in your mind, man.

Aww snap. Hopefully this goes through and isn't 2048. I've already got a copy here waiting to be played.

If I do get Wipeout in the mail, I'll probably just hang onto it.

EDIT: Just checked mine and it's still no change in shipping status. However, I visited the page again and Tiger Direct still has it at $39.99 and showing as In Stock. If it doesn't show, refresh the page a couple of times.

EDIT2: Just now changed to "Shipping Soon". Ordered from CC.

You guys are so right.

HMPHHHHGGNNNN


NO

no

These guys are right. Your reply does not exist.
 
Guys say if there are 2 vita's using one psn account can the 2 vitas play local multiplay. I know online would be impossible but would local adhoc stuff be possible?
 
I'm glad I applied a screen protector to my Vita, mainly using the touch screen means I've got fingerprints all over the face of the Vita all the time, so I'm frequently wiping it clean - it's too easy to grind some unseen bit of dust into my screen if I don't have a screen protector in place, and with one, I don't have to worry about it - the protector gets scratched and I just replace it... I would recommend everyone get one - it only takes one bad scratch to make you wish you had...

I just finished my first play-through of Uncharted Golden Abyss on Normal and I LOVED IT! This was a great game and a thoroughly impressive handheld experience! This one's going down in the pantheon of great system launch games, I'm certain...

You and I are in MAJOR disagreement.

Wat. After placing my order I checked out the 32GB sellers and TigerDirect and Circuit City were both removed from the list, but now they are back. Still can't add another card to my cart though.

Fake Edit: So has mine. Ohmanohgodohman.
 
I jumped on the TD deal.. but tried to order 9 cards and it didn't work..
By the time i changed my quantity and stuff it wasn't available anymore :(

I have 7 Vita games already, and I'm spending all my time in Gravity Daze. Kind of wish I didn't pick up so many games now.

Went to Target this afternoon and they had a few games on display but was told they couldn't sell them until later this week. No mention of a sale in the department either. Walked away empty handed :(

Same problem here, but after hours and hours of reading previews, reviews and threads on GAf I decided to pre order the Vita anyway. Hell, if I worked all the hours I spend reading about the Vita, I could afford 3 :D

Main reason for me is being able to play Uncharted GA when travelling. And..I just know I won't be able to ignore the Vita or any other console that launches. If I won't buy the device now, I'll buy it a week later. Yes... I'm weak :/

:D

I just put in my import order for a red TPU case and Gravity Daze (and Ragnarok Odyssey, but I was going to do that anyway) because of you.
You're making me spend monies! You jerk!
 
I ordered the same white case, but it hasn't arrived yet.

I heard the case is great, but I was worried that since its white, it might get dirty easily. How is it for you so far?

I carry it with me at least three times a week (Metro rides are suddenly bearable!) and I haven't dirtied it up one bit. No discoloration, still as puffy as when it arrived! It feels like a good place for a Vita to sleep!

I'm really curious about RO, but you'll need a Japanese PSN account to do online play, right?
 
It took me 3 tries to properly get a screen protector on. Finally got it on right but had a tiny spec of dust in there...not a huge deal. But still, the screen protector was making the screen much less impressive, as it was essentially creating a visible bezel. One reason the Vita screen is so incredible is that the blacks of the screen just blend into the bezel.

Took my screen protector off.
 
This is honestly the most I've spent at launch since the Dreamcast.

Touch My Katamari
UMvC3
Lumines
Rayman Origins
Wipeout 2048
Hot Shots Golf
Virtua Tennis 4
Escape Plan
Super Stardust Delta

Not to mention the couple of PSP games I bought on PSN to play too. Crazy.

Question...what is the consensus on hard shell cases available in the US? I need something that will hold both the system and some games. I really want the SDF case, but don't know that I want to import.
 
Amazon.co.uk have given me a dispatch estimate of the 21st so it may or may not arrive the next day with first class, would choosing Expedited guarantee delivery on the 22nd?
