What else?
Downloading heap of things from the aus psn store ATM. Damn the vita needs folders. I have over 50 ps minis from being a ps plus member. Plus 13 vita games and 5 psp games. Already getting a heck of a lot of screens ands it's hard to move everything around.

Can I ask a favor of someone buying their aus vita tomorrow. Could you please scan in each of your ad cards and upload them. I'd like to try printing them out and see if they work. I am pretty certain they will as all the camera does is look for the shapes on the cards. The 3 free ar games are up on the store.

Also all 4 of the social apps are on the store. Facebook, twitter, four square and Flickr.

Edit: Don't worry about the ar cards. They are available for download off the playstation website :-D works perfectly.
Here's something interesting... GAME don't currently have a PS Vita page, though I'm assuming they're preparing it for tomorrow
Its been like that for a few days now. They have filled their pre-order quota

I just got billed $50 for my monthly phone, probably won't get my Vita until mid-march. No point in buying the system if I don't have any storage/games.
Wonder if there's any midnight events ?
Disappointed there was no good deals in the end :S

Don't think so.

Xivion said: What forwarders are others using, I'm new to this kind of stuff and if it is going to be cheaper than the playasia route. Probably worth the extra hassle.



I was thinking about using www.shipito.com... if i get one off amazon

winhhh said: Wonder if there's any midnight events ?


Official Sony = No

EB Games and other stores are having their own pathetic tiny events though.

I extremely doubt there will be midnight launches happening as there is not enough time to organise security and inform shopping centre managements and plus the Vita pre-orders haven't been selling well enough for stores to host midnight launches
uhmmmm I'm kinda late for this but theres a deal in jb hifi

a ps vita (obviously)
uncharted
and a HIVE starter pack

for anyone else reading this as well :)
Wonder if the Vita will get a pricecut/Gravity Rush bundle anytime soon. I'd probably jump on board the second it does.
Anyone looking for a bargain, not Aussie though, but Amazon has the Assassins Creed Liberation bundle for about $195 shipped to Australia.

Yep it's a great deal. Also includes ps all stars and a 3 month ps plus subscription. And its the white vita which looks awesome, if i didnt have a vita already, id be all over this deal. www.ozbargain.com.au/...
I take it that ps plus subscription would be US wouldn't it? If I can use it, means I will get Gravity Rush and Uncharted with it too!

Yep US plus subscription. Wil require you to be using a US psn account to redeem it. You will need to keep your plus account active after the 3 months expire if you want to keep playing the plus games. But yeh it's an awesome deal and I can hily recommend plus, had it since it came out on ps3 and it just keeps getting better.
Hmm, I might give the US PSN stuff a miss. I do want those two games but would prefer not to have ones I need a live subscription to play. So I'll probably give the codes away here if anyone wants them.
Awesome deal, but it's gone :(

Which ever region psn you end up going with, I highly recommend ps plus. It is worth the money many times over, especially as a new vita owner. A 1 year aus psn plus subscription is around $60. Uncharted vita is around $40-50 alone from a store. You've almost made your money back in 1 single game in the very first month. You get 3-4 full games each month, plus automatic updates, plus cloud saves, plus discounts and beta access, and more. I seriously can't recommend it enough.

Yep had to be quick. Was a damn good deal. If Sony brings a bundle out with similar content for a standard price of $250, they'd surely sell a lot of vitas. Then retailers can sell them for $200etc on sale.

Yeah, I guess it sounds good. But then once you let your subscription lapse you are left with none of those games?
