For a case, I have bought one of these and although it's soft, its decent and has space for some games inside.

I might get a hard case as I have a decent Hori one for my 3DS XL. For now though, the 4Gamers one works well I think.

I use the PDP trigger grips which I think work really well. Can play as long as I want without issues.

And I use the thrustmaster VIP case if I take it out the house. Very snug fit and never worry about damage

I'd like to mention that I bought those Vita analog stick extenders/covers a while back, and they're awesome. They snap on tightly. No complaints (it seems like there is a new version here... not quite sure).
Ofc, you can just throw away the dpad covers.

Patches dont work either though, so I'd advise against it. Or have there been any changes about that?
Wow, really? That's going to be a huge problem for any online MP game.
Yep, thats the reason I stuck with digital only in the first place for my US account in Germany. No clue whether they changed it since apparently no one seems to know/care about it here when the other dude asked, but a few months ago, that was still the case.
MP would probably simply not work if its not the most recent version.
well im playing the aus version on my US psn account. ptch downloaded fine, and ive played online.
Ah good, so they changed it now apparently. Good to know, thanks. I can finally buy EU retail games, which means I might not need to bog down my Vita with another 4,5gb download. Handy.
It seems like a tank. I feel i will be safe with it. In Xtralife.es it's for 25 euros, so I'll buy it there although I found it cheaper in Fnac (Trustmaster Spain says it's available there. But my FNAC Vita shelve is very small.
I will buy the handle later, but I marked in favorites your recommendations. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure patches are region free. I'm on a UK account and both MLB 12 and Dragon's Crown have patched fine.

Your welcome. That case seems really strong to me and actually does fit in my jeans pocket....... looks a bit silly when I do though haha.
Oh I asked in the KZ:M thread but I will ask here as well. When does KZ:M unlock in the UK? will it be midnight?

So true! Assassin's Creed 2 was my very first Plat, and last AC.
I was looking at Ghost Song during my KS search yesterday, I would LOVE it if that game came to Vita. Looks very slick indeed, like a proper homage to Super Metroid for other consoles, except y'know, not Nintendo. I've heard solid things about the Shantae games, and the videos I rememebr fromwhen they first came out really blew me away with the animation. The idea of new versions could be a visual treat. The possibility of Mighty Number 9 being on Vita is something of legends!!! We NEEED this game! Every console deserves to have this spiritual successor to Mega Man! Vitamuffins! Let's make it happen!!!Well......
From the Shantae Kickstarter thread
and for Mighty No. 9

The "enhanced" set are the ones I have. I love them, so much. I am using the Xbox360 like ones, the set with a concave design. They really add some great extra play in the sticks, it almost changes the whole feel of the Vita. Dpad covers were laughed at, then indeed tossed. Just a shame you have to order 2 sets of the things to get matching sticks...
Best thing I do is try to find a place that gives most shade (duh). If you are playing in your car, park in a way that extends the shadow over the inside of the car the most. I sometimes have trouble with it also on my lunch breaks. I work in a large building, so my meal area is a mad house, and people have bugged me senseless about what I am playing, or doing, or what what have you, so I have resigned to the car for my gaming needs. Sadly, you can only do so much, and on those super clear, super sunny, super beautiful days, I tend to stick to bright and colorful games like Hot Shots, touch My Katamari, etc. Makes things easier.

Found out some new Spelunky tech last night...
it involves whipping a shop keeping as you're falling, then immediately jumping again and landing on his head which makes him drop his gun. then you pick up the shopkeeper and throw him up in the air to extend his hit-stun, then picking up his shotgun and blasting him.
it's like my whip method from before but when done correctly costs no health loss. I've done it a few times now. still trying to perfect it

Have those grips been scratching your Vita triggers up? I was interested but I heard from others that it may cause damage to the system.

Does anyone know why some games don't let me turn the brightness up all the way? The slider stops at about 80%...
And they really need to make your memory card's free space much easier to see. On the PSP, it's right there on the icon. On the Vita, a system that makes use of memory cards so much more, you have to dig through a few settings menus?

that's every game
i figure it has to do with the screens being tested at that higher brightness. I think they'd either get too hot or wear out faster. Either way, that has been like that since day one

System has a total power budget that can be used for gaming so if game is very pushing it will direct more power to soc and cut down max brightness to 80%.
They also used to turn off wi-fi but thankfully it was patched away.

Damn, they look good. I don't think I can get them in the UK. They're not on Amazon, anyway.
Battery saving feature that almost every game enforces.

Lots of games aren't like that. Just the more graphically intensive ones.
It's a $10 discount from 12 months of PS+.
Something something ugly, jaggies and PS1 bad textures. Am I doing it right?
Looks wonderfully charming

A little off the subject, but the expression on Totori's face when she uses the Duplicate skill is pretty funny.
Yes, you are right... I need to keep practicing english lol

When the PSP can have such great God of War games, i don't see how the VITA can't handle God of War 1 and 2. God of War 2 might be taxing but i think 1 is entirely possible.

Best Buy and Future Shop both have a generic Dec. 31, 2013 date...maybe they'll be announcing a date either next week or at TGS, I guess.

I think I'm going to buy the Sony Pulse headset and use it for my PS3 and Vita.
Reckon it's worth it?

Probably just be a Blog post announcement, doubt it'd really be a TGS thing.

I posted this yesterday but I waited until they added product information because I thought it may be a used Vita. Its not.
So now again.
PsVita(Wifi) + Killzone Mercenary(digital) + 8Gb Mem Card = 169
http://www.redcoon.de/B486941-Sony-Computer-Entertainment-PS-Vita-Konsole-WiFi_Konsolen
Since an 8Gb Mem Card is 20 and Killzone Mercenary is 35 normally, you practically get the Vita for 114
Is this threadworthy? Or only offerings from international retailers?

You're suggesting that a re-release of a re-release doesn't merit some giant on-stage announcement?
You're probably right.
To people who have had the system a long time: how are the analog sticks holding up? I've had mine for about three weeks, and the left stick is starting to feel a little loose.
That's one aspect of handhelds that sucks. They are the controller, so if the controller goes bad, the whole system goes bad. You can't just drop $30 for a new controller...

i'm coming up on a year and the sticks seem fine.
sometimes i think one of the sticks is slightly loose and other times i think it's jsut normal - i honestly can't tell, but it doesnt affect my playing at all.
i've had mine since launch and it's my most played system. mine feel totally fine.
