Yep. Probably the last day of November.
Can anyone help me out a bit; if I want to switch my main Vita account over from my US one to my EU one, I know I need to wipe the card and reactivate the system, etc...but is there any way to bring over my save games in the process so I can keep playing everything from where I was? Both physical games, and PSN downloaded games? I'm guessing I can't bring over my actual downloaded titles.
Bit confused by the whole thing still though.

Thanks. Sold a bunch of Vita games since I was dangerously low on money, so I'm hoping they may be part of the initial line up ( especially Wipeout and Lumines ). I think Wipeout is nearly a given.

Wipeout HD was the first free game on the NA PS+ for PS3, so yeah I am thinking Wipeout is likely as well.
Beginning of - that's when it starts
last EU PSN heads up blog, it was mentioned that it would be "sometime" during november..

Yup. Of no interest to me whatsoever.
It's emulation using PSP emulation, no? Meaning .. the emulation is not using Vita's hardware capabilities. No thanks .. no interest as well.

Bought an awesome game! PVZ is okay too but its ridiculously overpriced and there is some massive slowdown when things get really busy on screen.
You're not kidding
Playing Endless for that 40 waves trophy, lol. It was running at about 2 frames per second at one point Man-is-Obsolete

PSA for all my Vitabros who have yet to pick up PS+ or need to renew or want to add another year to your already 2 years:
At Best Buy some of you may be familiar with the magazine they put out, @Gamer. Every month they have coupons and sometimes they have great deals inside. Well they have a Fall magazine ($5) with Call of Duty BLOPS 2, and inside is a coupon for $15 off a year's sub of PS+.
All said and done if you have to buy the magazine ($5) you can get Plus for $40. $50+$5-$15=$40.

Nothing beats shopping the PSN store when you're buzzed. I once bought 'Amy' for PS3 that way.
Congrats on the purchases!
Been playing a lot of EDF since I got it. It was an excellent choice for a portable platform since the levels rarely last more than 5-15 minutes, depending on type of mission and difficulty level. Hopefully people aren't scared off by the lower budget nature of the game and pick it up when it comes out over here. It has a shitload of trophies as well, which is a nice change from the 360 version.

as long as it's already backed up on pc or ps3, you should be safe, no?

What's the best way to get Vita screen caps off the Vita and on to the 'Net for sharing?
Twitter ... livetweet .. it´s fast and easy..
Transferring them using content manager, then putting them on an image hosting site like imgur is what I've been doing.

When Vita gets PS+ I'd expect most of Sony's old PSP catalogue to drop in price or go free eventually,

flickr. well for me anyways. since i'm by a pc all the time.
it´s easier for me to use livetweet.. I have twitter open on my pc, so I just post a tweet from my Vita (with the picture), and voila I have it on my PC.:!
In the process of switching back memory cards, was on the 4gb JP one and now I want my 16gb back in there.
So when I put the 16gb in, it says I can't do that without formatting. Sigh. I thought maybe I needed to deactivate the 4GB card and then switch, and without knowing Japanese, I think I've done that, but can't be sure.
My question is twofold ; do I REALLY have to format my beloved 16gb just to play on my normal account again? And secondly, can I possibly back the 16gb stuff up to my PS3 before formatting it?
Like.. I have quite a lot of stuff there. I didn't realise I might have to wipe it just to get back to my normal account, I thought I was just locked to one account per memory card.

It's lame that I can't just email them off my vita to myself.

Sigh, you know this is the kind of thinking that makes me wonder if the reason they're doing a slower trickle of classic games is to avoid the whole CFW thing.
That would take 10 times as long as Flikr'ing them, lol.

I believe you just have to format the vita not the memory card itself.

Just restore the system without a memory card inside.
If you buy a NA game, you will need an NA account to buy DLC for it. If you aren't bothered about DLC then it doesn't matter.
You can't buy anything on NA store using an EU card. You'll have to buy PSN credit off the internet or a GAFfer and then put that on the account.
The fact that the games are from USA/Canada won't make any change, having a European PSN won't matter, they''ll still work.
As for a USA account, you run into two problems, first - which is that it is difficult to swap accounts without some juggling (as I am just finding out), and secondly, if you're talking about buying DD games from the US PS Store, you will not be able to use your Visa.

Does the coupon work on PSN or do you have to buy the PS+ card in Best Buy?
