I found myself wondering yesterday what Sony are thinking, I live in a large market town circa 40k people, here we have a Morrisons, Tesco x2, Sainsburys, Asda x2, Game, Gamestation, Hmv, Blockbuster, basically everything you would expect in a concentrated urban enviroment.

so far no supermarkets are stocking anything to do with the Vita, no games etc, Game and Gamestation have now gone belly up so no new games there now, so that leaves HMV and Argos...

Sony really needs to get pushing the Vita out, ask any politician and they will tell you, an election is not won by your core supporters, it is by getting the votes of the "undecided" well I dont beleive my Town is the only location with no Vita advertising/stockists, so how do they expect to sell to the undecided people if they dont put temptation in their path...

Crazy logic!

Well where I am all the supermarkets are stocking Vita, HMV have plentiful supply as does Game and Gamestation although as they are on there way out that may be all they have left. Toys R Us have loads as does Argos.

Comet, PC World and Currys dont have it becuase they didnt buy it in.

Its not Sony's fault your supermarkets havent got it in its your supermarkets fault or more likely their games departmenmts bosses who assume your ones may not need them.

Trust me Sony are pushing and pushing well just doesnt look like in your area lol

Just press X on the one you want to try and beat.

When I did this, I kept a mental count of how many I'd beaten and hit at least 13 (so I thought) and the trophy hadn't registered. However, when I checked under the stats screen, it only listed 8 pitwall challenges as being beaten. I just kept doing them until it finally gave me the trophy, so in my experience, there was something slightly dodgy going off, though it did give me the trophy eventually.

Just a thought while I'm typing this - I wonder if you have to beat times by 10 different people?

LOL Ive just checked my stats and it also says Ive only beaten 8. How weird. Anyway I only have two challenges on the Pitwall BUT I cant beat them. The times that have been set are ridiculous and I am miles away. I get the Gold medal on them but Im like 2 seconds off their times and I cant see how theyre getting so far ahead :( Looks like Im screwed :(

Your town must be irrelevant in the grand scheme of things........
 
Currys do stock them. I bought my second from them. But only because I get family discount lol. Anybody else get unit 13. Played it co op for several hours last night. No lag, crystal clear chat. It's insane what you can do with this hand held

I am purposely getting bad times on all new events now so I get some easy times to beat.

Kreeee's approach is something I actually did. On a new event, just do enough to get 1 medal, wait until you get a pitwall message about being beaten, then challenge it.

I found that after a while it tended to change the messages anyway, so you'll get it eventually.
 
My Vita won't turn on. The PS button is just flashing blue constantly and the power button held down is of no use either. Anyone got any ideas what the problem might be?

EDIT - sorted. Just had to hold the power button for about 20 seconds and a menu comes up to restart the system.

Who has this Unit 13 then?

Ive been in various shops/supermarches expecting to see it on the shelf but its not there... I know I can and probably will/would buy it online, but funny how its not a retail release... or im assuming not a big priority one.

All these shops do stock PS Vita stuff btw, so im not just going into random 'Eds Backyard and Beyond' stores
 
just bought stardust, loving it. already spent 3 hours trying to beat my people in my friends list. just windle to go now :p

I'm still considering getting that game, especially now sfxt has been delayed.

Kreeeee just an update for you.

I would HIGHLY recommend getting this. Ok Im not using a stick, but damn its really teaching me the basic mechanics of the game and I am able to pull off some basic combos now with Ryu (hey its an achievement for me :))

What team you recommended I should start with in the game?

Yeah it should work great on a pad as it has 4 main buttons, and generally simpler input motions.

Wolverine, Akuma and Sentinel is the basic beginner team and one of the best in the game.
