    Amazon bundle is very good. Vita wifi, free 8gb memory card and a selected game for £15. Comes to £239.


    Edit - game is optional so you can just order the vita and free 8gb memory card for £219
    How much does it come to us with amazon exchange rates? I presume it's free Delevery too? I wonder of it would arrive on launch day...

    Around 285 euros for the vita, 8gb, game and around 262 euros for vita and 8gb memory card. It's free delivery and it's dispatched on the 21st

    If I preorder, do they take the money of card now or when it's dispatched? I got money, it's just how long I can hide that fact from misses that I am buying vita :D

    No, Amazon don't take money until it's delivered to the buyer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,721 ✭✭✭Otacon


    Amazon normally do not take your money until they are shipping the product.

    Yes:)

    Yes:)

    what about cancellations with amazon? if i cancel preorder?


    firs of all i will have to have a serious chat with misses :D

    If you cancel before the item ships, you do not pay a penny.

    If there is a better deal between now and launch day I will cancel. Amazon will probably price match any lower priced bundles though.

    Well now it's getting interesting. Gamestop have a bundle with a Wifi Vita, Uncharted and a 16gb memory card for €329.99.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    Depends how much that'll be in store though.

    To be honest I would love to know how much that bundle would be in a shop. If it will be around same, then I will buy it in shop. Some sort of support for my local bric and mortar shop I guess.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    the missus got me wipeout 2048 and uncharted today

    Only saves €11, not the best deal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,224 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT


    Have a gift card worth 297 euro for hmv if anyone's interested in saving a few quid towards the vita


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,224 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT


    Does the memory card size play a big role with the vita?? Like I take it you need it for downloading games from psn but are the games really that big memory size??


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,630 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Its nearly here!
    The complete ambivalence is killing me!
    I'm getting one on October, maybe a little earlier, depending on the price point, mem card inclusion and some more decent games aside from Uncharted and Wipeout.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,750 ✭✭✭ghostchant


    Wonder what odds I'd get for Ciderman, after starting the thread, buying one within the first week of launch...

    Youd get great odds, coz he'd never be allowed :P


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,630 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I honestly don't want one yet.
    I know that in times past the panic would start with a month to go before the launch of new hardware and I'd find a way to buy the new device, but in this instance I have no compulsion whatsoever to get one.
    The two lead games of Uncharted and Wipeout offer little more than the growed up versions I played on my dear, departed PS3.
    The price you pay for the basic version of the PSVita, 250, does not include the memory card or a couple of games, so I'd wind up spending more like €400 at launch.
    There is simply nothing compelling enough about this device to make me spend that sort of money.
    I'd rather spend a wedge like that on a new PS3 and a PcEngine Duo-R!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,348 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    I still want this more. Even if it was a fake.

    I dunno, I had a long think about after seeing that bundle price but even now I don't think I'm going to get one. Definately not at launch, and probably not until there's a price drop and a bigger (and cheaper) library of games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    I'm definitely getting one, can't wait :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    I want one too. Best thing is that launch titles are not as bad as 3ds ones were.

    Then I can still play ps1 games on. It would be very handy, because I got in to FF7 again! It's still such a great game, you even forget that it is ps1 game. It's aged looks dissapeared after 2h in!

    That's the other thing that's kind of putting me off - I'm playing through all those PSOne classics on my PSP already and it's eating up all my handheld time. Currently going through Chrono Cross before going back to Suikoden and then Alundra.

    The PSP is still home to the best selection of handheld games available anywhere - even more so if you have a US PSN account.

    Kojima said on twitter last week that they were about to start on redoing all/some of the voice work for the vita version so it won't be out that soon.

    Why they doing it? Surely if console version does not need it, then why the feck it is needed for vita?
