Seems Target now has their games out for sale. But I cannot get them to hold a memory card to go with my Vita. I was told yesterday they would set aside on per preorder, but today I was told they cannot do this as it is in their ad as "While supplies last"

Yeah, I thought maybe, but then why would they not release it for other EU areas, which are also DD only? Just seems a bit off

I would LOVE to be able to get Gravity Rush in 2 days though

Who knows, maybe it was impossible to get the cards and boxes printed and shipped in time (Remember, even though I'm in NZ, we get Euro copies of all our games, with multilingual support). We'll find out on Thursday (my time) if it is in fact true. Hey, if PAL are getting Ridge Racer while it's delayed in US, there is still a chance!

On Amazon? Some orders will ship today, some tomorrow but Id be very surprised if you dont get it on release day.
Just ask some of the guys who ordered the FEB last week...They didnt get shipment emails until around 3:00 Tuesday but Id bet most of them got the order on Wednesday

I wouldnt worry until Wednesday comes and goes. If you dont get it, then youll have some apology credit from Amazon coming your way.

Is this like that on all of amazon stores, independent of country? It DOES say in the Help section of my country's Amazon that they ship it so you get it on release day, but I just emailed them and they said that they "already tried shipping it but couldn't" and that the estimated shipping date is the 22th???

I seriously fucking hope that's not right and I get on wednesday, considering I have Prime and chose the fastest shipping. Otherwise I'd be pretty pissed.

You have got to watch the trailer, it looks awesome.

I wonder if it's a full release w/trophies or a minis release. Either way, can't wait.

...first time seeing this. DO WANT.
 
Just got mine. God damn this thing is sexy.... I got UMvC3 with it and it's awesome! My only problem is that my thumb is too big so I keep hitting the analog sticks while I'm doing moves, but otherwise it's just perfect...
 
Does anyone know if the Lunar PSP game is compatible with the Vita? I just realized that I hadn't beaten that version and wouldn't mind going through the Silver Star Story once more on the Vita's screen.

No plans of reselling and the game cards are too small. Also Steam showed me the beauty of having all games available immediately without swapping discs/cards. And buying it off the US PSN will be almost always cheaper than buying the games as card in Germany.

I'd like to go DD only but that will have to wait until the price of the 32 GB drops significantly. I'll probably buy larger sized games with deep single player like Uncharted and Gravity Daze retail and pick up and play stuff like Hot Shots and UMVC3 on PSN for the time being.
 
The Rayman price tag is rough because the MSRP on the PS360 versions just dropped to $20. I'm going to hold out or maybe hope for a PS+ discount.
 
Think if I order one from Amazon UK tonight (Monday) I'll still get one on Wed? The pre-order still says order now for arrival on day of release...

starting to feel the itch that can only be scratched with new tech...

If I can get the wife's buy in

Finally got to play with one. I was expecting to be disappointed since I had pretty high expectations but damn, this thing is awesome as i hoped. Some games really look like Ps3 titles. I think Virtua Tennis even looked better then the ps3 version.

It's funny you say that, because I had the exact same feeling playing the demo very briefly in a store. It really did look incredible.
 
Just had confirmation from ShopTo that my 3GVita has been packed with DPD for next business day delivery.

Awesome. Especially since I took the day off tomorrow in the hope that ShopTo might get this out early.

Yes Yes a thousand times YES...

this is probably the 50th time this question has been answered in this thread...
 
Has anyone tried to use the 3G as GPS for driving? Do I need to download an APP for it. The only thing available is the MAP and it gives direction but not GPS/realtime.

Don't see why not.

Seriously considering switching my order from Tesco to Amazon. Costs me £20 more but not sure i trust Tesco to despatch it with next day delivery. Hm. What do you all think?

Tesco are legit, you might be waitin' til later in the evening til it arrives though
 
Hey fellow Vitabros.

How many Vitas can be connected to a single PSN account? Has anyone tried activating more than one Vita per account?

I wouldn't hope on it. It also depends on how many stock they had. I bought batman arkham city special edition the day before release and still had to wait for 4 days before they send it


But yeah it all depends on how many stock and how many people order it already

Someone put up some direct feed NGS+ screens taken from the screenshot feature on the Vita. Looks native res and really sharp!

I'm still waiting to hear confirmation of 60 fps, I did hear some 30 fps talk but everyone is saying it's smooth. I really hope it's 60...
 
Is anyone going to buy Silent Hill: Book of Memories? It's out in late March and Konami's sending that bitch to a fiery hell. They haven't even released a single trailer for it.
 
frequency said:
Yeah. First world problems or whatever that expression is.
I whine about it, but I should be grateful. I was one of the lucky ones that got my Vita like a week earlier than even FEB people because of an Amazon screw up. And now I'm getting it replaced free of charge (though it'll take time for me to find a box and to ship it back).
Click to expand...

Nah, I was only joking. I know I'd be really ticked off if my Vita was broken, especially after waiting all that time, and applying all that stuff to it (and getting it set up with all my information/games/etc), and then having to send it back. It happened with my wife's PS3 last year. I had just bought it for her, and less than a month later, we had to send it in to repair. We had to wait 2 weeks or so for the new one, then download and install all of her games and game data, since we didn't get to back it up before it broke.

You have time to ship it back, though, right? Don't they give you a few weeks? So at least you'll be able to play on this one, then back up your data and copy it to the new one when it arrives?
 
Im having trouble choosing a psp game to get...ive come down to...Trails in the sky, DJ max 3, or monster hunter freedom unite.

Note: ive never played a MH game before, and i dont know anyone to play multiplayer with...
 
Really happy that I went with Amazon since if there's anything wrong, their return policy is relatively pain free. Especially, if your hardware is defective, they send first.
 
Anyone have that soft case from the Starter Kit?

I know the sticks get in the way, but I loved the soft case I used with my PSP2000.

I'm trying hard to avoid a hard case, but it doesn't look like a solution exists.
 
WHAT THE FUCK? I open my case and go to play my vita and all I see is the blue ps button light and it won't turn on... I would plug it in to see if thats it but I am at work and didn't bring the cord with me as I charged it last night. This is just great.

I really liked origins and am interested in this isometric view. However, I will be renting it.

Where are the other shots? Looking good.

I'm really hoping it's 60 as well.

Fingers crossed for tomorrow

Vita 3g
pre order stater pack
16gb
lumies

will pick up wipeout for the £5 vodafone deal.

Glad Play are delivering with DPD instead of Home Delivery Network / Yodel, DPD have always been reliable in the pst for me, HDN... not so much.
