Why are some of you (who don't have the Vita yet) insist on buying the games and memory cards now? There's a good likelihood that many retailers will offer deals as launch nears. What, are you all going to make unboxing videos? lol

But whatever, wouldn't want to tell people how they should spend their money here. oooooh.

In Japan at least, the 8-4 podcast had talked about how a lot stores had very limited quantities of the 32GB memory cards. I wanted to make sure I could get a larger card, so I don't end up purchasing a 4 or 8 because I have no other options. Games I'm not too worried about, just pre-ordered when I pre-ordered the system.

So I dont have a PS3, or PSP, but I am picking up a Vita on launch day.
I know the Vita uses a different content manager than what everyone is used to, but the old one has access to PSN store, so if I buy Monster Hunter FU, and Star Wars BattleFront 2(is it actually any good on PSP?) Resistance retribution and a few demos on Media Go, does that download the game to my PC, and then when I get my Vita I can just send from PC to Vita, via the new content manager. Does it work like that?

Related note; Does anybody know when the Mac version of the content manager is due out? I thought I read that it should already be out but can't find it.

 

[AkuMifune]

I never realized there was a $150 limit to the PSN wallet. Just something I happened to find out today, completely unrelated to spending every waking minute in preparation for the 22nd. Nope, I'm not getting involved in the ridiculous hype at all, no sir.

Ha, thank you. It never even occurred to me that it might have it's own thread.

The update is out but I don't see the content manager itself yet.

It should appear here today.

So amazon.ca said that it's ready to ship this thang tomorrow. Is this for real? I ordered one just for shits and giggles.

lol! i just preordered from there now as well.

 

[Hasemo]

And it is now.

 

[Cookie18]

And it is now.

Wow talk about good timing. Downloading now, thanks guys.

 

[chubigans]

I'm layin on the couch, with a perfect moment to Vita it up some. ;_;

 

[pwack]

I've been back and forth about whether to get a Vita at launch; I preordered within minutes of becoming available on Amazon, later cancelled the preorder.

I just got an email that I won a $100 gift certificate for stopping by the Vita Hill Club in Chicago two weekends ago. Sure I could spend it on PSP games (no PS3), but I think this will push me over the edge. Yay free stuff!

 

[The Elite]

And it is now.

Installing. But this won't let me browse the store, will it?

 

[CrankyKong]

What kind of career mode does Hot Shots golf have?

 

[Hasemo]

Installing. But this won't let me browse the store, will it?

No, it will just let you exchange data between your Mac and Vita, that's all. No Media Go functionality etc.

 

[Zeth]

Will this be relatively easy to pick up at Target/Best Buy etc in the coming month? Not a troll post, honestly wondering because I haven't preordered and if I get it, it will be somewhat spontaneous.

 

[that1dude24]

god the screen is gorgeous - wipeout's super clean look and ui lend themselves perfectly to the screen

I think you should have no problems unless Sony short ships.

 

[CSX]

So has Sony said anything about airing Vita commericals before the US launch?

 

[Cookie18]

This content manager app is just teasing me now.

 

[DMeisterJ]

PRICES!?

Uncharted is 50
HSG is 36
WipEout is 36
Modnation is 27
stardust is 10

 

[The Elite]

Content Manager adds a little PSVita to the Menu bar on OS X. How cute.

Uncharted is 50
HSG is 36
WipEout is 36
Modnation is 27
stardust is 10

Wow, no discount on Uncharted. Looks like the rest of the prices are in line with what we've known.

 

[Cookie18]

Uncharted is 50
HSG is 36
WipEout is 36
Modnation is 27

Oh boy do I hope those prices translate well to the UK.

 

[chubigans]

Hah, no Uncharted discount for anyone!

 

[darkressurection]

Damn, I wish there were some demos up on the US store now. I just switched over my Vita back to my US account to get ready for next week.

 

[pharmboy044]

Stardust is only $10? I thought it was gonna be $15. Hot damn, I'm gonna be picking that up day one!

Do you have access to these games through the Vita now in NA?

Ugh.

 

[darkressurection]

No, still getting the "Not available in your country/region." Hopefully that changes soon.

 

[DMeisterJ]

None of the third parties are up, and Reality Fighters, Motorstorm RC, Little Deviants, or Escape Plan are up yet as far as I can search.

 

[JakkuFurosu]

HSG: World Invitational: 1.15GB - $35.99

wow kinda light in the ass there huh (hsg 2 for psp was a tad smaller then 1gb, expected this to be at least 2). 1.15 is good for me as it seems i should have no problem getting this and Virtual tennis on a 4gig card.

Uncharted for £28 gets better and better.

Lets see what the EU prices are though.

 

[Gav47]

Well people in Eu can get 50% select psp and ps1 games http://www.siliconera.com/2012/02/0...psp-and-psone-final-fantasy-games-for-50-off/

Sweet, €5 for VII is a steal, I wonder how long it with take for PS1 support to be patched in?

Lets see what the EU prices are though.

Here you go:

Uncharted is €50/£40
HSG is €36/£30
WipEout is €36/£30
Modnation is €27/£25
stardust is €10/£8

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Stardust is only $10? I thought it was gonna be $15. Hot damn, I'm gonna be picking that up day one!

Not so fast there. It may be one of the free PSN games with the voucher for 1st edtiion or day 1 3g pre-orders.

 

[Takao]

I love you Bend, but I don't $50 love Uncharted.

 

[Shancake]

Is Virtua Tennis online, too? If so, I LOVED the Virtua Tennis arcade machine...

Sure is.. Was close to perfect as well!

 

[The Elite]

It's supposed to be $10 AFAIK.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Fuck @ HSG and wipEout prices.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

It's supposed to be $10 AFAIK.

Oh so 10 in US PSN funds?!?! FREE STARDUST FOR ME THEN!?

 

[The Elite]

Oh so 10 in US PSN funds?!?! FREE STARDUST FOR ME THEN!?

I believe so.

 

[brettchalupa]

Just got Hot Shots, glad I can download some games before launch so I can play them right away.

 

[Cookie18]

Uncharted for £28 gets better and better.

If those translated directly I would probably go and buy a 16gb card straight away because I'd be all digital.

I'm sure we will get screwed but here's hoping!

 

[Leona Lewis]

Damn this thread and its hype! I just re-instated my canceled Vita preorder from Amazon for the regular WiFi model. I will fight tooth and nail with myself to limit myself to one game...

EDIT: Crap! Totally forgot about no included memory. I planned on loading up on demos to hold me over until software prices dropped :-(

Canceled again...summer it is! Hopefully there's a mega-sale for the memory sticks eventually.

This thread is going to eat at me for the next couple of months, but I can't justify this purchase yet, GAHH. I'll just keep telling myself to learn from the 3DS that early adopters never win.

 

[Peterthumpa]

US PSN?

 

[- J - D -]

No Uncharted DD discount is COMPLETE BULLSHIT. Fuck this game.
