Official word from the mouth of Yoshida. Most excellent.

 

[Kyoufu]

[XANDER CAGE]

[salromano]

Pretty sure this is old news. Remember hearing this some time around E3.

 

[DrFunk]

Import it is!

[sixteen-bit]

The correct decision.

 

[TacticalFox88]

Sony is doing SOO many things right with this handheld it's ridiculous

 

[Aeana]

The eternal pessimist that I am refuses to believe for 100% certain until someone actually runs software from another region on it, but this is certainly good news either way.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

SMH @ nintendo.

Only if Vita had replaceable battery it would be pretty much perfect.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

YES !!!! awesome news! still going to buy a EU device but if their is every a game that will not be release in my region at least I can import it than.

 

[SykoTech]

Based on the word of mouth here, I thought it was already. Great news though.

 

[Unknown One]

Pretty sure this is old news. Remember hearing this some time around E3.

Well it has been speculations the whole time, but this is a confirmation.

 

[benny_a]

Sony is doing SOO many things right with this handheld it's ridiculous

And because we live in an unjust world it will fail!

 

[spats]

Giving more thought to importing now.

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

Eyeballs Nintendo...

Well done Sony!

 

[K.Jack]

Beautiful. Now if I could just read and speak fluent Japanese.....

 

[gofreak]

Pretty sure this is old news. Remember hearing this some time around E3.

It was a slightly vague 'as far as I know it is' from a SCEE guy. This is much better

 

[Aeana]

Pretty sure this is old news. Remember hearing this some time around E3.

Some dude from Sony Europe said it might be, which wasn't really confirmation.

 

[Castor Krieg]

Pretty sure this is old news. Remember hearing this some time around E3.

It was never explicitly confirmed, just hinted-on. Now we have a confirmation.

 

[Wario64]

S. Yoshida has a sense of humor confirmed

 

[Dead Prince]

has he answered if we are allowed to have more than one psn accounts on vita?

 

[Shed_a_Ninja]

And because we live in an unjust world it will fail!

Well, think of it this way:

The more they fail, the harder they will try to succeed.

 

[Barakov]

Fantastic.

 

[Trakdown]

Good, now somebody just needs to get DJ Max Technika up for pre-order.

 

[hawt]

Now the question is whether or not I should import...

 

[Tain]

Good! Would even think about buying it if it weren't.

 

[Kyoufu]

Some dude from Sony Europe said it might be, which wasn't really confirmation.

Especially when one of those Sony Europe dudes said the analogue sticks were clickable...

 

[Grinchy]

Well, think of it this way:

The more they fail, the harder they will try to succeed.

I am secretly hoping they fail a little bit so they have to Nintendo the price.

 

[sTeLioSco]

its better this way.....

 

[Bebpo]

This news makes my wallet happy

 

[Salsa]

kewl

thank god for flashcarts on the 3DS

 

[Unknown One]

The only thing we need a confirmation of is multiple accounts.

 

[perfect free]

Great to hear official confirmation!

 

[EhrgeizVII]

I didn't expect otherwise from Sony.

 

[Wario64]

has he answered if we are allowed to have more than one psn accounts on vita?

This is the next big question to ask.

Either way, digital downloading will make importing fuck-tons cheaper than it normally is. As long as you can find a way to pay for the games... (which shouldn't be too big a problem with PSN cards)

 

[LiK]

glad it's confirmed. no more worries.

 

[gofreak]

The fact that all games are downloadable means 'importing' games could be extremely trivial.

Just buy PSN cards from different regions and log onto stores, and purchase away?

Hopefully you can play 'authorised' content from any account on your Vita...if switching accounts isn't as easy as on PS3 that's OK, as long as you don't have to switch just to play.

 

[Goldrusher]

Official word from the mouth of Yoshida. Most excellent.

Mmm, that sounds good, I'll have that.

 

[Ploid 3.0]

I am secretly hoping they fail a little bit so they have to Nintendo the price.

How much more cheaper do you guys expect this beast to cost? free?

 

[Shed_a_Ninja]

I am secretly hoping they fail a little bit so they have to Nintendo the price.

Same. Hoping for a $199.99 or lower pricetag. Couldn't give two shits for 3G, and I hate At&t.

 

[ZoddGutts]

Nice. Will import Dream Club Vita game.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Yeah! You guys know what this means:

 

[IonicSnake]

This news makes my wallet happy

You're not buying the Vita?

 

[spindashing]

I didn't doubt it, but feels good man.

 

[Acosta]

Fantastic, Sony get this at least.

 

[Seik]

Great, the contrary would've surprised me.

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Yeah! You guys know what this means:

Wow I almost forgot about human teddy. I should have finished that game.

 

[Fantastical]

Thank God. Nintendo's region locking is so senseless.
