I don't think thats gonna happen
they made a ton of the things and they didn't exactly set the world on fire so there should be a bunch out there for a while

Now's your chance Vita-less GAF
That was the original belief.
This is the first title from Sony's Third Party Production team. It'll be published by SCE, and not Take2.

Seems a much better deal than the UK one. This coming from SCEA is doubly unexpected going by past experience.
But I would want one of those black/khaki ones to go alongside my Liberation white one.

My old white OLED has a fair bit of burn in. Clearly that's a valid reason to buy the bundle, right? RIGHT?!?!
I'm terrible with money.

Sweet! Thanks a bunch.

I wouldn't mind getting a slim... but after I sold my OLED, I don't think I could "jump back" into Vita for more than $150... or $130 used in good condition.

Glad I decided to just get an original from Cowboom (has shipped, but haven't gotten it yet).
I played the shit out of BL2 on 360 and an 8GB card isn't very useful.
I thought maybe the slim would be coupled with a price drop since the LCD screens are cheaper than the oled, but oh well.

Instead of a download code and an 8GB card, why not just give the retail version of the game? The 8gb will probably only hold the one game.
They want you to upgrade.
Not quite. It's missing Tiny Tina and Sir Hammerlock DLC's and the level cap is 61 because it doesn't come with Vault Hunter Pack 2.

I've been playing a lot of Borderlands 2 on PS3 over the last few weeks (as it was a PS Plus giveaway). The ability to continue my existing game in progress on the Vita is a great incentive for me to get the Vita version.
Not sure if serious...It was announced at Gamescom.
I really hope this port is good. If so, I'll get it day one. Nay, SECOND one.
For me, I think the plan will be to have two Vitas for two separate purposes. OLED Vita + grip = strictly a remote play machine to leave at home, Vita 2000 = take with me when I travel and play actual Vita titles on. Graphics don't matter to me when it comes to mobile gaming, so the absence of the OLED doesn't affect my opinion of the 2000 at all.
Besides, the (slightly) improved battery life and (slightly) smaller form factor of the 2000 obviously means it will lend itself better for on-the-go play.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Sort of want. Not really interested in BL2 or the black color. 8 gig card is nice, but BL2 is just a download token so there goes your 8 gigs.
Think I'll hold out for a different bundle later on in the year. Not really interested in the 1000 model either. I want the 2000 model. If we get something like a FF bundle I'd be in.

According to Wikipedia, it's being developed by Iron Galaxy, who previously developed Street Fighter 3 Third Strike Online for the PS3.

I still want to get one at some point but damn if Sony isn't making it easy with that entry price.

Wait wait wait.
Does it include all DLC? Only says 6.
If they are selling the other major DLC packs (Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt & Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep) to sell later I would be a bit miffed. Not to fussed about the little Headhunter stuff.

No news about colors means no colors I guess. Would have been crazy to see North America getting them and we Europeans not though, because the platform isn't as dead here as in the America.
Still hoped they would be announced because it would mean the chances of Europe getting the colored Vitas would also be higher. Also, I could import one if I want to, don't want the hassle with the switched buttons of a japanese model.
At first, I thought the price of the BL2 bundle didn't include some kind of price cut but seeing peoples reactions I guess I was wrong.
Where I live, the price of the original model actually got significantly raised after the new model was announced. I guess it will stay that high because it will be rare and the OLED is something some people would prefer.
How can a 8 GB card probably only hold that one game when the actual game cards are limited to 4 GB?

Mostly glad about the cross save since I've been playing Borderlands 2 on my PS3 recently.
I'm bummed no one is really talking about the more important Vita news (even if it is now in a F2P model).

Excited for this. I may upgrade from my First Edition 3G Vita.
Does anyone know if the new Slim fits in the First Edition case?

Isn't it just the PS Mobile game remodeled for F2P?

I have the PS Mobile version and this and the F2P version seems alot more polished and fleshed out which it needed. The gameplay was great, but needed more content and clean-up and it seems like they are doing that.

Per...son...AAAAAAA!!!
Dragon Fantasy is also a nice RPG. Light hearted, not to long, and a decent price. And there are two entries on the Vita. One that looks like an 8 bit RPG and one that looks like a 16 bit era RPG.
I've had one almost since launch and the OLED screen is perfect. I think it could become an issue if you leave it with the screen on displaying an image for too long (like the right bar when you use the browser for example). In my case, I use my Vita strictly for gaming and video, and I put it to sleep the moment I'm done with it, so that might have helped.

Imagine a gold vita with the persona 4 cast embedded on the back

Ah yes, the "never want to be seen in public with it" bundle.
