Yeah I'm not expecting to get it right away from them. The discount was too good for me to pass up though, so I'm in no rush.

Yes, the $25 off was an excellent deal. I'm going to run with the free 4 gig card from Target for the time being. But I really hope to hear something from Lockerz soon. Their people and even CEO are pretty active on Twitter, so I might drop them a line when I get home tonight. I'll keep you posted if I hear anything.

The free games are HUGE.

444 MB ... Cliff Diving
308 MB ... Fireworks
251 MB ... Table Football

I expected them to be like 50 MB tops.

What in the world? That makes no sense. I'll probably download them, try them out and then delete them unless they're somehow amazing (sincerely doubt that). Very stupid.

Mine is shipping soon. Amazon will send it for arrival tomorrow if that's what you chose. Always believe in Amazon for they will never forsake you.

This is true, closest Amazon has ever come to failing at release date delivery was when Dark Souls came out, got it at 8 PM haha.

Looking at the pics of this beautiful little machine makes me want to trade me PS3 in for it.
Trying to convince myself that portable gaming is the future.
Sony deserve it for this to sell well.

Put a vita in my amazon cart and checked release date delivery, the next screen it took it away and it's not available anymore... I think this is a sign for me to wait, since my backlog is huge anyways....

FINALLY got my hands on this thing today at the store demo.


First time seeing or touching in person.


Damn sex. Great looking and feeling handheld.
 
Saw someone on the bus with it today. It looked hella sexy, not gonna lie. Even he thought so since he was just stroking it and it wasn't even powered on.

Damn my luck and my bank. :(

I waited so long for tomorrow's launch and shit happens overnight for me. Enjoy the Vita guys.

Blame your bank, maybe you should change. If you are with BOA or Chase I would def. change they are the worst of the worst. My friend got charged for shit all the time and had to go through the same process you are countless times.

Huge selling point TBH :D

I asked earlier but were there any posted impressions on the game? I saw some reviews but it seems typical of Acquire game reviews- meh score but pretty fun replayable game...
I'm about 40 minutes in and aside from the copious amounts of text explaining every little thing, it's not a terrible game but not a great game either. I'm going to guess it's one of those things I'll start to like over time, despite its flaws.

^16 GB is fine if you do a mix of physical and digital. Go 32 GB now if you want to go digital or get a ton of digital download games. Going with a mix helps you save some space in bigger games like BlazBlue or Uncharted.

Wait until you have a credit card with them and they change your interest from 9% to 22% just because they can, thank god there was nothing charged on that card. After that I called and instantly canceled.

The general consensus is if you plan on buying at retail, 8-16GB is fine. If you plan on doing digital, go 32

I'll go with a 16 for now. Then when the prices eventually drop down a bit, I'll get another 16 or perhaps even a 32.

Amazon pre-orders..have yours shipped yet? Mine keeps on saying, "Shipping Soon"

Yup. I posted a few pages back. My Wifi system shipped a few hours ago with expected delivery tomorrow.

My B2G1 free games have not shipped yet, still expected delivery tomorrow on those as well.

16gb card. It should be fine for now, as long as you're not going exclusively digital, and there will be better options (bigger and cheaper, hopefully) released in the future. It's what I'm doing at least.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Damn, Mutant Blobs Attack couldn't install. Heard about this problem for the Stardust bundle, but not this.

Re-downloading. Hope its not fucked :/

The sheer amount of content at launch though is... unparalleled. Like seriously. Retail, PSN games, free AR stuff... lordy me.

Hopefully they release a 64gb card. And not for 125$ either...

Or they start charging you a $50 fee every month because their terms changed without telling you.

Needless to say I've joined a credit union since.
