Problem with option 2 is that they'd need valid games to win the customer over. The Wii definitely has a head start and its clear Sony doesnt have any games for that atm, but still quite a lot of time to work on the PS4 plan. I dont think the PS3 + Vita connection was ever really planned as more than a gimmick after seeing that Nintendo did it.

I find the new store terrible.
It's sooo slow and laggy. Ugh.
And sidescrolling shooters = shmups.
Gradius is as much a shmup as Ikaruga.
Save the $5 and add another $5 and get Sine Mora tomorrow.
Disagree.
Just fix remote play so it fucking works. (read: on more than 3 titles) Now you have the "streaming the console to the gamepad" covered.
All you're missing now the ability to do things like split screen multiplayer a la Black Ops 2 or doing things like Nintendo Land.
But LBP2 has made it so you can do things a la Nintendo land, using the Vita as the controller and taking advantage of it's touch screens and such, I think.
And if the userbase grew, I'm sure more developers would be willing to experiment with the cross platform abilities. I mean, Capcom's been doing something with it for UMvC3 and SFxT... so it's not like it's impossible.

My friends... there aren't any Black Friday deals for memory cards, are there? =/
Its looking grim.
Amazon Cyber Monday deals...but...the odds are against every one of us.

I've seen so many people hoping for memory card sales, it's almost like someone should make a thread about it.
VITA IS DOOMED BECAUSE THERE'S NO SALES ON MEMORY CARDS ON BLACK FRIDAY...

I WILL get Sine Mora tomorrow.
I also WILL get ZHP tomorrow.
And I most certainly WILL get P4G tomorrow.
And I also definitely will get someone else to play What did I do to deserve this My Lord with me during the next few weeks.
And I didnt mean sidescrolling shooter as much as a sidescrolling brawler (mixed with a shmup). Just watch this:

It's looking pretty... grim, at this point.
I bet the only memory card deals we'll see will be on 4GB and 8GB varieties.

never use music subscription service before, just try the trial and may grab the 1 yesr deal, but how good is sony music unlimited compare to other music service in general? I just browse some of the music selection and it didn't have Skyfall Adele song 
For the time being Im going to load all my PS+ and digital games on my PS3, and switch when I finish a game on my 4GB memory card

Best bet is to just keep an eye out on Slickdeals and Cheapassgamer. If there's anything, it'll show up there, for sure.
One joke at a time,
Joyfully killing Heaper.
Wuthering and I.
Alternatively,
Dead is the Heaper!
A joke his achilles heel,
gone with the reaper.

God damn where is it?
I want my Persona Four
and cant fucking wait.

Great, now I cant stop..
God, I need to go to bed.

Downloading as we speak!
I wanted to play the poem game but FW dropped while I was getting my mad skills on. Oh well, here have a laugh.
I went to chat
with my vita bros
and the vita cats
Carl pimping the blobs
Toto hating on P3P
Heapers avatar has boobs
All the vita cats
strutting their stuff
Just a skit and scat
Dreams of firmware
downloading to Vita
slower than a hare
Persona four coming
excitement is rising
Fsteaks and pudding
Masses with pitchforks
screaming Vita is dead
why aren't you shocked?
They continue with pitches
vita has no games
now suck it bitches
Now finish this rhyme
didn't you know,
It's Grace Chen time!

Does the Vita come with a memory card when you purcahse it? Is it enough to at least download 1 game at a time? I really want one so I can take advantage of the PS+ deal
Get one of the BF bundles and you should be covered. Plan on getting a bigger card at some point though.

It has no games so people have to write poetry to keep themselves entertained.

Most of the bundles include a 4GB, i think. You should read the box to make sure though.
That should be enough for a few games (Full Vita Games) depending on which ones. You could fit a good number of PSP games on a 4GB
Most bundles come with a memory card. They're usually the 4GB one so depending on the game you should be able to fit it on the card.

Fair enough.
But we should all be learning latin, considering its a doomed language.
TOP OF PAGE EDIT:
People should check out the background thread on the Vita since the browser is faster now.
BUY the Valkyria Chronicles 2 BUNDLE if you are in NA!!!!!!!!!
