None that I've tried.. I download Gravity Rush from both the HK/JP store and neither worked. I also dled VT4 with no success.

You made something wrong then, because it should be possible.
What did you do?

The best way should be to download them directly with the vita and then switch back to your standard account.
You should still be able to play the demos then.
Also you can download them with the ps3 and transfer them to your vita, but you have to use the same account on the vita as on your ps3.
After the transfer you can switch accounts again.

What's not possible:

Download demos (gravity rush f.e.) from HK-Account with your ps3 and transfer it directly to your vita with an US-account.


Well again, I don't have a vita yet so i could be wrong, but thats how i understood it.
 
Ok, got Wipeout, HSG, Super Star Dust Delta and a 16 gig card...

Should I get MH? Or should I wait for the inevitable (whenever it may be) MH for Vita?
 
Is there something in the vein of this:

For the Vita. I don't like the Hinge in the HORI case so i am now looking for an alternative.

MH is pretty cheap, like under $10, so if you want to check it out you wont have to spend much money. A MH Vita game is probably not out before many many months.
 
So a friend of mine just confirmed one of the questions i had. The vita titles do show up on your FB if you synch it. (if you have it enabled of course)

Yup, but it seems like you constantly have to go back into the trophies app before it updates.


I unlocked all three of those trophies within the same hour or so, but only the first one automatically posted onto my FB. The next morning, I went into the trophies app to sync and it posted the rest of them. Kind of weird and troublesome.

That's what I did, and it didn't work.. Then again, I only own one memory card.
I attempted to sign out (US account) and then sign in with my HK. But I got some message stating I can only log-in with the account that is tied to the Vita. I'm pretty sure getting a second memory card will fix this issue.
 
The PSPgo would also automatically create a save state if the battery ran low and the unit put itself to sleep as a precaution. I guess we'll see how the Vita handles it.

Does anyone know anything about that CTA Digital screen protector that Amazon is now including with the 3G launch bundle? I'm thinking I may just go ahead and put in an order for the Hori one since I know nothing about the CTA protector. Still deciding on a case though, ugh. I've had this case for my PSPgo . . .

. . . and love it, but I'm not sure if there's anything similar for the Vita in the states.

Check THIS one out. It's not exactly the same (and actually is similar to the one being sold at Target somebody posted), but for $10, I figured why not try it. It also doesn't open only on one side like the one you posted, which actually looks really nice. I like this style of case better than the fanny pack looking cases Sony is selling, so I can't wait for it to ship to check it out. The only other kind of case I would buy is something identical to the Logitech Playgear case.
 
Damn you Target, I talked myself into wanting BlazBlue but without the deal I don't think I want it enough for a solo purchase. Hopefully I'm distracted enough Wednesday to not really care.
 
Exactly. Out of everything I've played (Uncharted, UMVC3, Virtua Tennis, MJ HD EXPERIENCE!!), UMVC3 is holy shit. A shame Capcom didn't allow screenshots.

Rayman and UMVC3 are the ones really popping for me so far.

To change the topic a little, is this one of the best launches, software wise in console history? So many good titles.
 
See, I really think the UK accounts don't work at the moment. I have Trails on my PS3 downloaded, won't even appear on my Vita to transfer over..... :/

most of my UK PSP games transferred over. the only one that didnt show up was patapon 3. Interestingly the Vita showed patapon from my japanese account, but it wouldn't let me transfer it. Seems it shows everything as a tease.

It's been like that for years. Sometimes trophies I earned days ago pop up on my feed.

I was going to grab it today in Toronto but it was sold out everywhere. Hope to get it Tuesday or Wednesday when more come in stock. I plan on using Futureshop's Trade One deal.
 
got all my accessories, or so i thought, and now im a little irked with the dock. it didn't come with an AC adapter or at least a second USB cable.

so since it's going to be on my nightstand to be charged nightly, now i have to go buy a second USB cable. i appreciate sony trying to make stuff more affordable but they're getting stingy.

I don't blame. Screenshots look like shit from Vita. They need to fix the compression. I'd disable screenshots in a game too if I thought they were going to turn out looking like crap.

The PSP Go one didn't have anything either.
 
I have a PS3 sub account, what happens when I link this account to my Vita? Will I still have to rely on updating funds on the master account to buy through my account? (my brother's)

I hate this problem and it's been an issue since I truthfully told my age when I got the PS3 at 16. :(
 
Has anyone confirmed how to unlock UMVC3 DLC on the vita version? I have jill and shuma, go to check for DLC and it lists everything and saves. But then neither character is selectable. Sorry if this has been asked a bunch but I've been searching (maybe for the wrong thing) and haven't found anything.

Its like trying to find out how to Soul Link in SC5 all over again.
 
I'd be interested to know why and what launches you think went better, because I only planned on getting UMVC3 and SSD and now I'm looking at 7 games that I bought, not to mention 4 PSP games, plus all the old ones I had that just look way better.
Oh I think the Vita has a great launch lineup. I just don't think uncharted golden abyss will stand as a pinnacle launch title. I find the game pretty crappy, to be honest.

Oh ok, that makes sense then.

For myself, Super Stardust Delta is the perfect launch title.

But Blazblue, Rayman and UMVC3 are all visually amazing and don't feel like gimped ports.

I don't think they are available yet. A lot of these things aren't going to hit until Tuesday/Wednesday. :/

Thanks for that suggestion. The PSP version of that case seems to have really good reviews at Amazon, so for the price it seems like a good case for a blind buy (just so I have something to put the Vita in when it gets here since I'm heading out of town next weekend and would need a case).

i think it will be for those that don't know anything about vita other than that uncharted is a popular franchise with good games and now vita has one.

but yeah, everyone in-the-know is going to either get it for the heck of it, just skip over it, or wait for a big price drop.
 
Yeah. I know I'm going to wait to get a Vita until after a price drop, and then I'll probably pick up titles like Marvel and Uncharted that have ALSO dropped in price.
 
I'm sure this will be a dumb question, but I already have Wipeout and Hot Shots Golf, I'm going to get Lumines, Virtua Tennis, and Marvel vs Capcom at Target, which leaves me with Uncharted and one other game at Toys R Us. That other game will be either Katamari or Rayman. Which one should I get? (I think I know what everyone is going to say)
 
ah, monday morning....

Hurry up, Chenster! Pull the lever! (yes i know i'm about 60 hours early...)

... i've no idea why i'm stacking up more games, i've not had time to even boot up Good People Die :/ (though with #datjapanese i'll have to just look at the pictures and guess the story! ;) )
 
Probably going against the flow, but I never really got on with Rayman, and i have a soft spot for Katamari. Vita version is crazy verbose but the dual analogues make control enjoyable, and the touch for flattening the katamari out (or squeezing it to make it tall) are a nice touch
