So, what are some essential accessories? I know I definitely need to get a screen protector - is there one that's recommended?

I like the official Sony ones.
You get two, and they have a handy button.. overlay thing which helps you align up the protector as you put it on.
There's also the Hori ones that cover the screen and the entire front of the Vita.

In what universe is pinball arcade a bad game? Come on, Carl!
Bad games IMO:
Reality fighters
Asphalt
Supremacy mma
Modnation (though I have a soft spot for it)
Ben 10 racing
Doctor who
Spyhunter
Pretty bad games IMO:
Resistance
Blops
F1 2011
The Lego games
Little deviants
Madden pre patch (haven't played it post patch)
The pretty bad games, resistance and blops specifically, are decent at the right price. And the rest of the vita lineup is all up to taste but aren't intrinsically bad games. Again, all IMO.

HALF AS LONG, TWICE AS BRIGHT.
Oh yeah! Little Deviants. I really disliked this one.
Just got bored of it insanely quickly.
Paid full price for Resistance and loved it

Guys, what have I done, why I bought a white vita when I already own AC:L and PSABR. I'm so weak D:
First time I laughed out loud today ...
Going to gift the black one away?

I am officially rocking the Reiko avatar. It was either her or @yosp. She won.
Let's be honest here, we'll number in the hundreds.
Ok, the twenties, maybe.
Er, I think there's, like, may be 10 of us...
Anyway, I'm glad to see more people hopping on the Vita train. It's an incredibly well done console. I'm loving PlayStation All Stars on it at the moment.
Welcome all the new Vita dudes and dudettes! It's going to be a bumpy ride!
I can live with that.
Considering the pace I am going through SpaceChem, I wont change mine anytime soon.
Black Ops: Declassified is not worth it at any price, IMO.
Why am I still playing it for trophies. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

Not bad, but Pinball Arcade can get bored unless you are a lover of 80's and 90's tables, and you played them before in real life. I played a lot Theater of Magic, so I love to remember that time playing it again on Vita.
But Zen Pinball allow much more complex gameplay, and effects or missions that were not able to do in "real" tables. If you don't take into account the nostalgia, it's a much better game.
Good thing it's a good Uncharted game..unlike Crapcharted 3.

I am fucking pumped for my Vita to get here. Got the bundle of course.
As a Dynasty Warriors fan and owner of Samurai Warriors on the 3DS, how is Dynasty Warriors Next? I read a review that makes it seem pretty cool with a lot of stuff to do. It might be my next game that I try to add to my library. That and Rayman.
I honestly never realized how many quality games the Vita has. I don't own a PS3 or 360 so most of this stuff is all new to me.

Origin, methinks.
There's a demo for DWN that you can download when you get your Vita. Welcome!
People like you are the reason I am as outspoken against the VITA HAS NO GAMES thing.
#raaaaaaaaage
(nothing against you, its just a notion of the Vita not having many good games that is being perpetuated by this stupid "meme" when other people use it to discuss any issues the Vita has, which in turn gives off the wrong impressions to some people.)
Hope you enjoy the console
Its an amazing piece of tech.Picked up the AC:L bundle from GS last night. Already had PS+ and MGS Collection waiting for it.
Goddamn, this is one sexy beast. Bigger than I thought it would be (guess I was too used to the PSP Go), but I definitely like the big screen and sturdy feel to the system.

Aye. Don't see it here though. Region thing? A link would be great.
Same here. I can't stop looking for those treasures. Almost an obsession.

Holy shit a demo for a game I actually want to buy!
Feels good man.
Feels good man.
In a funny way I was sad when I got them all. Made it my afternoon thing on days off to run lvls and treasure hunt.
Obviously searching for treasures makes it longer, but it is a long game.
Thanks!
Welcome all new Vitabros!
I can't tell - is this a non-negative post from TheSeks I see before me?!

That a good thing?

((I can't speak for Dynasty Warriors (never followed the series), but Rayman: Origins was awesome on the Vita. It doesn't have the multi-player, but to be honest, I preferred playing it by myself. It looks absolutely stunning on the Vita screen.
Uncharted and Gravity Rush are also two of my favorite Vita games, and LBP Vita, and PS All Stars are also in my top ten list. One of the things that is kind of frustrating for a Vita owner, is the constant assertion that the system has no games, because it has titles that are spin offs, or perhaps also available on the HD consoles.
The whole point of the Vita, for me, is that I can play All Stars on the bus to work, go home, sync my save, and play it on the big screen if I so desire (I've played the bulk of it on the Vita, though). The point is that handheld gaming is no longer limited to quirky indy games, or piss poor adaptations of console experiences. It can have both, and do both extremely well. It's great! Uncharted feels like Uncharted. Assassin's Creed feels like Assassin's Creed, and so on. Being able to play Sound Shapes on the PS3 doesn't negate how awesome (and more intuitive when creating stuff) it is to play it on the Vita. LBP Vita is a brand new game, but is also, perhaps, the definitive realization of the LBP franchise. Creating with the touch screen and back pad feels like the series was made for the Vita.
I don't know if you've checked out the Vita upcoming games thread, but there's some good info there for a new Vita owner. I encourage all new Vita peeps to check it out.

I like The Pinball Arcade, but the Vita version is pretty meh, especially compared to Zen Pinball 2. FarSight seem to put the absolute bare minimum effort into it; the graphics are freakin' awful.
HEY, new people posting PSN ID's! Please let us know which games you are interested in getting soon! I dont need to add people who only plan on playing COD
I am actually up for suggestions. I can't stand COD, and am mainly a RPG/adventure/sports fan. I mainly bought the system for AC Liberation as it is my favorite series this gen. I am looking into Persona 4 after hearing good things about it (though I am on the fence. I love RPGS with great stories so looking for feedback on Persona), and love Uncharted so looking forward to Golden Aybss.
Other than that I am pretty uneducated about the Vita scene. This mainly comes from feeling like I got burned on the PSP when they released the games that I bought the system for (GOW and MGS Peacewalker) on the PS3 and I felt I waisted the money. That all being said I just couldn't pass this deal up, and am willing to give Sony another chance.
I am also not sure if this is the right thread but are we allowed to ask about CFW in this thread.
Anyways thanks in advance for the info!

Must Buy games
-Persona 4 Golden Best JRPG of the PS2,amazing 120+ of pure awesome gameplay,a game everyone need.
-Gravity Rush Unique gravity experience with Ghibli's soul.
-Virtua Tennis 4 . The Perfect port, 4xAA,60fps+native res of pure awesome.
-Rayman Origins. Best 2D plartformer of the generation now on Vita with 60fps+native res
-Assassins Creed III Liberation,Full AC experience on handheld,with new ideas and amazing setting and Aveline as pure badass and no First Civilization and Desmond crap AC3:L is the best AC3 and the one to buy.
-Need For Speed Most Wanted sure the handling might not be good for some of Burnout Paradise fans but it's still a very good open world racing experience.
-Metal Gear Solid HD Collection This is how good Kojima used to be before he completely lost it with MGS4 and MGSPW crap.
-Ninja Gaiden Sigma+ NG still has the best combat system in action game,very solid port of the PS3 sigma version.
(solid 30fps, native res,run and play like a boss)
-Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward Amazing story and puzzels and the game look great.
-Mutant Blobs Attack. Just a brilliant game with amazing level design.
Do whatever you want on PSP section,just don't buy P3P because it's complete and utter trash/ripoff.
oh and don't bother oe waste your time with Playstation Mobile, it's a dead service.

Why aren't we seeing more screen caps for the screen cap thread folks?!!
So many new games have released and new comers. Take pics to your hearts content!

Persona 4 is constantly nominated as best RPG of all time, so take that as you will. Disagaea 3 Vita is the definitive version of that if you're interested in that particular series, and Ragnarok Odyssey is a decent MonHun clone.
As for PSP games, I always just link to this page: [Click] Has summaries for pretty much every PSP games worth owning, and almost all of them are digital on PSN.
Fine, i'll whack some AllStars ones up.
Here's a pretty useful thread, with some good links:

My personal Vita library currently looks like this. It's not all of the games I own (I haven't finished downloading a few PSP games to my new memory card). Each of these games I highly endorse and enjoy to no end:
I really hope you and all the new Vita owners enjoy the system!
Can't do so with Handheld titles due to the system only holding one account at once. So you can't gameshare Vita games like you can PS3 ones.
For all the shit I give you about All-Stars...
Good taste.
I am CONSTANTLY making screenshots, these were a few from the impressions post I wrote up:
And then of course all of these from P4 early game:
