I want to but I decided to wait until I get my hands on one to try it out first. I'm really skeptical on this one. Besides, iPad 3 is around the corner. $300 for Vita and $600 for iPad will burn a deep hole.
for once i applaud sony for not charging an arm and leg for premium products at launch.
but two reasons why I won't get it
1. proprietary media...seriously I can't believe sony is still shoving this down people's throat to prevent 'piracy'...wake up sooner or later someone's going to turn it into a micro SDHC adapter.
2. no HD screen
maybe when they release revised vita that allows ps3 cloud gaming/remote play...i'm game.
saw it and used it when it was released in HK last year - not much of an upgrade compared to the PSP Go. I didn't find it worth buying when I played around with it - stuck to my PSP 2000.

The simpson ps3
GT5 ps3
Ace Combat assault horizon ps3
Dead Island ps3
Dead rising 2 ps3
Sonic Genesis collection ps3
+ DS lite
= $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
^at ebgames? what are the cheap games right now that qualifies as a trade in??
there are some games that u can pickup right now for i guess $20bux.. not really a saving coz all u save is about 5 bux per games.. not really worth it unless u can find some in the clearance bin.. i picked up both assasin's creed brotherhood at FS for 9.99 each.. while others i still see it selling for 29.99... so it's YMMV
The Vita's been available in Aberdeen for over a month or so now..

Man, I can't seem to get myself into the handheld market anymore.. Not appealing to me at all. I have an xbox, a gaming rig and I had a ps3. A handheld for 300 bucks? Not worth the investment, when I've already got 3 gaming devices and an iPhone.

if i want to play a game for a long period of time its going to be on my pc or in front of my tv. if i want to kill 10 minutes then it'll be on my phone.
i dont see how portable consoles fit in these days. i think its a dying species.
1. It feels great. Dont be turned off by the size when I first saw it I was like damn its pretty big but holding and gaming on it feels great! Your hands dont cramp up like when you play a 3DS or smart phone game for 30 mins.
2. The price is good to 249$ is a steal yeah it has proprietary memory so what its still better than what people projected the price to be which was at around 400$
3. I got Uncharted GA and MvC3. Uncharted looks fantastic I think it looks better than the console version just because of the screen. People talk about resolutions meh I cant notice the difference the experience is still great the FPS is good and thats all that matters
IMO this is way better than buying a tablet and carrying around a stupid controller and telling people that its a portable gaming machine. HEH if I wanted to do that I would rock out my ASUS laptop and play BF3 1080P and show you whatsup.
$ by $ Vita is > any tablet in the market right now. The games feel like their true console ports and with the different variety of controls from buttons, to front touch to rear to gyroscope the controlls are endless.
I recommend a Vita if you really love video games and if you have 249$ to spare. It even has some apps and has a browser so if your thinking about buying a tablet meh might as well buy a Vita it will get you through the day.
Also features like Remote Play (play PS3 games on your Vita) and the potential to be a extended controller only makes the purchase better.

THe majority of casual gamers will play games on their phones. But there are still alot of CORE gamers out there and once games like CoD, Madden, NHL and true console ports hit the market with online play people will jump ship and play this on the go.
Smartphone games are meh sure they can be cool time killers but they also drain your battery. I rather game on a dedicated device and save my phones battery life for important things such as communication.
I still see a market for dedicated gaming. Gamers will buy it regardless also people said the same thing about PC's back in the day. Why would people want to buy a console when the PC can do everything... Look at how that backfired.
meh if u commute to work or school everyday.. a handheld is probably better off than a smartphone.. i mean sure playing phones on iphone kills time... but i don't carry a cable with me everywhere i go and my iphone sux on battery as it is.. and playing games during the commute will just basically kills my phone.. i probably won't be using my vita as much when i'm at home or whatever.. but it'll have it's use when i'm on vacation with nothing to do or on the airplane. it's not like it's overpriced piece of junk @ $249 it basically have most the feature of a tablet except with a smaller screen but better spec.. like above poster said.. handheld will always have it's market.. i paid $0 for mine so i'm not complaining too much

I like using mine at home because its pretty much pick up and play. On a console you have to power up your tv, power on the console, wait for the GUI to load, play the game, go through all the opening cinematics, continue your game.
On a Vita I press power on bam it starts off where I left off right away no need for other BS. Its great for playing when your on your computer or watching something on TV.
i think it's hard to say
yes playing games on a phone kills the battery...but most people aren't playing over 20 minutes anyways
looking at all the handheld gaming device since the smartphone market allowed games to dominate...even with 3DS taking a huge price cut the sales are still poor. You have to agree there's only a decent market for portable devices only if there's a mod community behind it.
I do not think the PS Vita sales will be any better if it remains hacked-free...otherwise it will become quite a niche market imo
