= $290 credit paid the last $10bux with cash since i can't trade over the limit.

some of those game i picked up for like $10bux off here and craigslist and the rest are just collecting dust at home when i bought it on sales

i also gave my pokemon heartgold and black to my friends to trade in.. as they also qualify
Is there a list of games that quality for trade-in? Or is it every game that's 8$ or more on TIVs?

Why waste money on a cellphone when you can just use your home phone?

The point of a portable gaming console is because it's I don't know? portable? Most people who do end up getting a PS Vita will most likely have a PS3. A major point of the PS Vita is that it's an extension to the PS3. Continue playing your PS3 games on the go...

Same here I want it but I know it'll be a waste. Not too many games right now that I'd want to be playing. UMvC3, Wipeout, The Show, Ridge Racer, but that's about it lol.

But if they announce NHL 13 on the PS Vita, then it'll be an instant buy.

any games that's over $8bux and you can trade as many of them in up to the max cost.

i picked up sonic genesis collection for ps3 a while ago for ps3 for 7.50 lol traded it in for the 25bux bonus

Hmmm Amazon has a buy 2 get 1 free promo right now... Kind of tempted to get games lol. Fifa Soccer would be a good indication of future sports games showing up on the Vita right? Really only want to get one if I can play NHL on the go lol.

played it at EB today...feels pretty good, screens just big enough....didn't really hear the sound well as it was connected to some wall speaker thing.....

hope it gets hackable like the DS did...and if they get rid of the $60 memory cards I'd consider it a bit more.

dig around for some games that you don't play and see if any worth $8bux and trade in ur DS along with it :P than it won't cost you anything and you won't feel so bad even if u won't play it down the line.

Yea I'm heading to best buy on my lunch break and going to grab one. Would the accessories pack be a good deal? $20 ($40 - 20) for a 4GB memory card, case, screen protector?

Also jumped on the B2G1, got Rayman, Lumines and Fifa. Going to get UMvC3 for PS3 since I can play it on the Vita anyways right?

Costco has the 32GB cards for 84.99

i just bought it... with 32gb card from bestbuy LOL... ended up being ~369$ after tax. for both. 249 and 99 for memory card. minus 20.

when i got home and FINALLY finished setting up the system, went on PS store to buy uMVC3, only to find out it costs the same as the physical version... i thought they were supposed to be cheaper digital? >;( i am teh disappoint. rather buy physical if its the same cost geeeez >___<

^i dont know about the PS3 games being on the PSVita. i did read somewhere they said if you owned the PS3 version, you can download the Vita version for free? and vise versa. since i dont have a PS3, i never really looked into it. good luck though! ;D
