***** PlayStation Vita Official Thread *****

Some good points raised by DBT85 & Begbie there.

Although DB, games are quite large in file size on the PS3, so those on the Vita Memory card approach will be spending a lot of dollar if it's like that.

Begbie, I think Sony will do a bundled package with it costing 1/3> of the price more.

Be nice to see either way.

It would be pretty unfair on the non-ps3 owners though :(

Would still like to see the tech go ahead mind, purely from being a gadget whore.
 
Microsoft has shown that you really don't need the Japanese market, Sony are probably more than happy with the Europe and US sales.

Another week and Vita still doing terrible in Japan, Sony really need to do something about it soon otherwise dev's are going to be switching their games to 3DS.

There were no Vita games in the top 20 chart either.

360 doesnt do well in japan either. did that make devs abandon the 360?
 
If the Vita sells enough in the west, devs will just make games suited to us.

I wouldn't really worry about Jap sales since apart from a few series we don't have any interest usualy in there games and the same applies there for our games

What about as a whole? The xbox would've sold more than the Vita, which would obviously appeal to the DEVs more.

Last summer it sold 1.5 units total in japan so its never been a big seller over there.

Its a different world now though when Japan and the US were the major territories, now, europe is a much bigger proposition so its not really a problem for something not to sell well in one territory.
 
You guys will like this. I've been scouting around for FIFA on PS Vita.. long story short, I bought a copy 2nd hand on the bay. 2 days gone by, not dispatched. I sent a message this morning, and this was the reply I got:

'Hi there i thought i let no I got home from work and was going to pack up ur game and realised the game was missing I rang my misses and she said she as taking it back to shops as she brought it for my birthday but didn't no I sold it eBay as I'm not in to football games and she said u didn't want so I took it back So I had to go out and buy another brand new one from hmv but I sent it off first class for ya so i should recieve it 2moz it all sealed inside brand new I thought i tell ya as u might find it funny thanks for the quick payment and sorry for getting back to u late many thanks Dan'

Apologies for the lack of punctuation in the above, not my words.

Having trouble signing up to Vodafone on their website do you have to register you're sim card?

I assume you mean to top up for wipeout?

If so all I did was click on the Vodafone symbol on the vita and then top up on the Vodafone site, simple as...

I then received a code about 1/2 hour later through the vita.
 
I really want to get UMvC3, and ideally digitally, but I'm not going to pay 40 quid for it so I'll have to get it retail. I didn't want a handful of tiny game cards but there you go. Does anyone else have it?

Also tempted to preorder Unit 13, really enjoying the demo and it feels much like Uncharted in that it provides a 'proper' gaming experience. :cool:
 
I've got a front and back screen protector coming for the Vita tomorrow but i'm having second thoughts on using them as i don't want to ruin the look of the Vita.

How easy do you think the Vita will scratch? for example I got very minor scratches just cleaning my PSP with a soft cloth.

What's everyones thoughts?
