So I guess you'd choose DJMax over Project Diva if you had to choose between the two?

Don't get Modnation, seriously. It doesn't even have online. That's reason enough to not get it.
You might not want to double dip, but get Sonic anyway since you can play that online.
Edit: And double "don't get" Black Ops. It's got some really poor design decisions and I regret starting it.

If you're going to get Plus (and you should), make sure you don't wait for the store to update on Monday, as there will probably be a game replaced. You'll want to sub and activate everything that's available as soon as possible (all you have to do is "checkout" the free games; you don't have to download them).
I plan on getting today out Friday, that v way I won't miss out
It's not bad if you're getting it as part of a bundle, but it really does make you long for a fully featured CoD on the system with stuff like gyro aiming and such huh?
Uncharted's gyro aiming is amazing, I might add.

We've known for several months both of those games were coming. Were people really unaware they were coming?
sony store has vita memory cards on sale right now, $35.99 for the 16GB. Just bought one myself for my new vita...might have buyers remorse spending that much for so little memory though....
The Vita is a fantastic handheld for some people.
It works really well for me because I love rpgs such as Persona 4 and puzzle games such as Lumines, but my attention span is pretty inconsistent for playing them. With the Vita I can just put it down in sleep mode at any time without having to worry about it. I rarely bring my handhelds out of the house, but sleep mode and the ability to play without wires and move to a different room easily makes them (Vita and 3DS) work really well for me.
edit:
Also the Vita has a pretty gorgeous screen.. I don't play games for graphics, but damn does Persona 4 look good on it.

My advice would be to put Tactics Ogre and Jeanne D'Arc ahead of Disgaea 3 if you haven't played them. They're both excellent. Especially Tactics Ogre. A few of those games on that list are few with PS+ if you're in the US, so consider that. And definitely get Sonic Racing over Modnation.

i keep seeing this - even if you don't care about golf games? is it like mario kart for golf games or something? kinda curious here

You can import any kind of physical game, but DLC won´t work on it. The Vita needs to be formated to log in your other accounts.

I assumed this was the case, but it is not. The game is incredibly fucking complicated, and after looking at a brief guide as to how the different types of spin/weather conditions/etc. work I decided the game wasn't for me (after purchasing it, unfortunately).

I never played golf before (virtual or real one ) and it was enjoyable experience for me
I mostly bought it because it was getting so much praise on Eurogamer forum so i was curious and it hit low 15 euro price on psn store months ago.
Altrough i'll admit i suck badly at playing it

I don't care about golf games but love HSG. I played the demo a ton and just picked it up for Christmas. Try the demo, it's great.
And I think it's only $9 on PSN. No-brainer IMO.

Get Motorstorm RC if you like racing games, beating leaderboard/ghost times and a challenging game that requires good hand-eye coordination. Really addictive and cheap as well. Crossbuy, though I prefer the Vita version.
Pinball Arcade is good if you enjoy realistic pinball games and you get the PS3 version as well.

Isn't it just? If that was the only game I ever bought for for my Vita, I be satisfied with my purchase of the system.
I think AC:L gets too much stick. The story is solid and the visuals and sound are top notch as far as portables go. Plus you get to play a black female lead character + no stupid science fiction modern day cruft to get in the way + voodoo. It is worth checking out despite what all the haters keep saying.
Plus the white vita is really nice.

I think wally in canada will ship to the US, but I'm not totally sure.

From that list I would remove PSASBR, Modnation Racers and Resistence. Add NfS:MW and AC3:Liberation.

From another thread:
Guys I have done a quick 180 on Need for Speed Most Wanted.
I was shitting on the game design however, I have put in some time just before of the awesome technology. I drive around and I am just puzzled how powerful this system is.
I love my Vita.

It takes practice.
Of course I played golf games off and on when I was younger, including the original hot shots, so it wasn't that deep of a learning curve for me, but if you are just jumping into it for the first time, it can be a bit jarring. Although, the last two, ESPECIALLY the last course can be a huge bitch.

Yup.
Congrats! enjoy and post impressions in the 'Vita game and service' thread.
You too.
Congratulations!
Imo every vita owner should get a 16gb card or more, ps+, mutant blobs attack, knytt underground and many more!
Grats on the Vita! I use mine almost every day. Eliminage Original (psp game) has been soaking up a lot of hours for me this week but I'm still playing Persona 4 and NFS Most Wanted as well.
I echo the Unit 13 recommendation. I enjoyed the game and consider it well worth the purchase.

Vita is the best gaming hardware I've ever owned. Absolutely love it. Shame it's not catching on but I hope Sony eventually wakes up and gives it the support it needs to get more developers on board.
I'm happy with the game library as it stands, though.

Jeanne D'arc didn't really grab me but I second Tactics Ogre. Also, Wild Arms XF is the secret best Strategy/RPG on the system. It's like Final Fantasy Tactics with crazier classes. Some of the reviewers didn't like it because it requires actual strategy (you frequently need to change classes since the objectives vary from battle to battle) but ignore them; it's awesome. It's also only $10 on the PSN.
As far as standard RPGs go, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky is the best PSP RPG exclusive. Be sure to pick it up after you finish Persona 4 Golden.

I hope you all guys enjoy it a lot. When you actually look into the games catalogue it's an awesome machine for something hasn't even been out for a year.
PS+ only made it better.

Yeah, they should do those demo stations like they did nearing the end of the PS2 days. There was like a truck that went to different locations. Just got to get it into the hands of the people. There doesn't seem to be much of a marketing push with SCEA.

Nobody should ever question whether the Vita is a badass system in 2012. The cloud hanging over it is its future, but if you're having fun now who cares?
Sound Shapes, PSASBR, Unit 13, Super Stardust, and Sonic Racing are all great :-(

Enjoy, man. It's a nice machine. Don't forget to check out those PSP games as well. Well worth your time.

Picked up DJ Max Technika Tune last night. It's basically Elite Beat Agents with a bunch of catchy Korean songs (mostly pop, although there are some other genres in there).
It's like someone made a game just for me.
