This Vita bundle is insane... (Vita, mem card, AssCreed $179.99 WOW)

It's pretty lame that Amazon is passing off the 199.99 PS3 deal as a 3 hour Black Friday deal. They're supposed to have it all day today and tomorrow, and the AC3 Vita should be 199.99 right now as well. I guess Sony isn't ordering stores to comply with their own stated deals.

Responding to myself here, but just a heads-up that Amazon is now offering the PS3 inFamous/Uncharted bundle at 199.99 normal price.
 
yeah, I have a 16GB and had to remove my Resistance demo to download the free stuff. Really does depend on how hard you're going to hitup the digital games
 
I'm tempted to jump on this because it's such a good deal, but I'm not really a handheld gamer so I know it will just collect dust after a few days of play. Might as well go to a better home.
 
Buy a Vita guys... It's beautiful, has some really good games, PS1 game catalog, PSP game catalog... it's a gamer's best friend.

If you have PS+ on your PS3 you DEFINITELY need to jump on this.

You're definitely going to need a bigger memory card for it though. The bundled one can get you started and store a 2, 3, maybe 4 games but with a Plus membership you are eating through that space pretty much the second you get it in your hands.
 
I also posted this in the PS Vita PLUS thread, but for people new to the Vita or Wipeout 2048, you should know that if you own Wipeout HD and/or Fury for the PS3, you can download them for free on the Vita as a dlc pack for 2048. It like doubles the size/content of an already great game. It doesn't run 60 fps like the console, but it's still pretty outstanding.

PS+ is the main reason why I'm buying one. And for Tearaway next year as well.
 
Must resist buying this......

A week ago I thought the Vita was worthless and dead, and now I must have one cause the deal is so good. Madness
 
They ship the non-sale version so I assume so. But there's a $10 shipping fee and an import fee of around $40 which makes it not so good a deal.
WHAT. I wasn't getting that high an import fee when I had it added to my cart with 3-4 other items.
 
Even if this is possible, keep in mind that you will still be limited to 8 directions.

I know that, but who cares?! I'm not using the majorly uncomfortable PS D-pad for anything. It increased the playability of Mario 64 DS when they did the same thing on 3DS.
 
Getting to the home stretch.

Loving all this excitement for Vita. Just getting it into peoples hands to see the potential is awesome and so many great games coming with it.
 
I look forward to NPDs to see if forum hype = real world sales. Would be cool if this "saved" the Vita.


*question* Is the PS3 still a viable solution to storing Vita games when your Vita mem card runs out of space?

I can't see them having much more than ten thousand of these (if even), so this alone won't save the Vita. If Sony pushes more promotions like this, however, it might help.

That's a good question, and I'm curious myself.

Well, this deal, and the 199 deal that's going on all day today and tomorrow. Although that deal looks pretty shitty in comparison to this one now.

Yeah, it's been difficult to remain optimistic about the Vita with all the negative talk about it of late. But Vita, here I come!
 
I'm probably going to try to get one...but it feels weird ordering a mostly dead system with not much of a future.

I'm not sure why I'm excited about this deal to be honest. Haven't touched my PSP and DS in years, nothing really interesting on the Vita. I feel like I'm going to get cold feet and cancel my order after the rush of getting it in my cart.
 
Wait, what, really? You mean I can finally play ff7 with an analog stick, or no?

I'm pretty sure you can't use the analog sticks to move in FF VII.

You can assign the left analogue stick to be up down left and right in the Controller Settings -> Assign Buttons ->Custom menu

Just scroll down to the Left Stick on the left of the screen (vita side) and then on the right side assign the various directions. Works fine.

Sure it's not REAL analogue as you only have 8 directions but yeah, it works. The dpad will still work too.

They really did add a nice bit of customisation to the PS1 emulator.
