But I want to see more 3GB games ;). I'm hoping to play an Elder Scrolls on this thing some day.
Oh, I definitely don't want them to avoid larger games, I'm just going to avoid getting them on PSN over retail until we see affordable 64 GB cards. And since we have those for MicroSD Sony'd be crazy if this was designed in a way they could never get bigger.

Opinions, opinions. It's a great pick up and play game for kiddies and girlfriends.

This is where the value proposition problem Sony has with the Vita rears it's ugly head.

There are tons of games like this for a buck or two on iOS. Why would a kid or girlfriend spend $30 for a game like this that offers nothing over Cut the Rope, Where's my Water, or the casual game that shall not be named?

Games like Uncharted, Gravity Daze, MLB The Show, those are big full games, you can make an argument for those at retail prices. A mini game collection? Not anymore. Put it on PSN for $5 or better yet, throw it in the box since it's obviously a tech demo intended to show people the features of the device.

Super pissed right now. Now I have to get one on Amazon shipped by Friday D:<

I don't think stores should take preorders if they don't know how many units they're really getting. That would piss me off so much, because I could have chosen to preorder somewhere else that wouldn't have fucked it up.

If you buy a 3G Vita at Toys R Us you will get an 8gb memory card, at&t data connect session pass, and a PSN game. Also if you spend $50 or more on Vita games or accessories you get a $20 gift card. That deal should be running from Feb 19th-25th. And I think it is buy one get one half off from 3/4-3/10.

No source, other than myself.

'Cause they don't have an iPad/iPhone? What I mean is that this could be a good game to keep in your catalogue if you have girlfriend/kids and would like to borrow your Vita for a little while.

Also, we're talking about 30 different mini-games here. Not the same shit with different levels.

Anyway, I do agree that it should be cheaper, but this is on a Playstation platform. People would complain if Sony decided to forget the "mainstream" market and Little Deviants is for this audience. Just don't expect $5 launch games here, it won't happen.

One quirk regarding this week's new PSP release, Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom. It isn't showing up amongst the PSP selections on the Vita PlayStation Store... but IS showing up on my PSP Go. Just a heads up.

Hopefully this isn't a trend for future PSP title releases. There aren't many still on deck but it would suck if Vita owners without PS3s needed to wait longer to get access to them. (I'm assuming the purchase on PS3 and transfer trick would work fine for this new title just as it does for older PSP titles.)
 
damn b2g1!? i was all set with HSG and wipeout from amazon.... now i'll have to see if i can find 3 more games im interested in. i definitely want UMVC but i kind of wanted to download that one. maybe i'll bite the bullet and buy retail

If Amazon matches the B2G1 deal, would I be able to get them to do anything if I already bought 4 games and received them?

Wonder if I could rebuy the games, get the free game, then return the games using my old orders...
