drat that's a fine OP. I'm pretty sure there is a 3g Vita in Canada, it's jsut the dumbest idea for anyone to buy because who the gently caress wants to pay our cell phone rates for that, AND deal with loving Rogers. E; weird, I went to find it on the EB games website but it's gone now. I remember hearing about it when I went to the sony store not too long ago, though.

The Grimace posted:I really want a Vita, but I don't want to rebuy 90% of my titles. I hope they have some kind of post-release PSP sale on PSN. I'm happy to rebuy FFT and Tactics Ogre if Square-Enix receives more money for making fine games, I guess... just, money is hard to come by. I hate on Portable Ops a lot, but I'm looking forward to re-playing it with a second analog stick just to see if it makes it better when the controls are decent. I'm going to fill my 4GB card with PSP games for the first week since there isn't anything I really want to get on the 15th.

Does Rayman: Origins have online play? I want to pick it up but I would feel more confident about it if you could do co-op.

Nothing yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was some support at some point. Granted, I still think the PS2 classics selection is going to get bigger but we know gently caress-all about that, too.

BreakAtmo posted:Yeah, it's a shame they haven't announced anything like a 3000-3500 mAh internal Vita battery. Oh well, maybe one day. IIRC the rear touch pad makes the battery non-user servicable. There will be no new internal batteries.

If you're buying physical games? 4gb should be fine until memory card prices go down. If you're planning on doing any digital stuff it's nowhere near enough.

They could have just accidentally uploaded the same file twice or something. Either way it's something else to play tomorrow. Now I get to make the decision on what day one games to get other than Katamari.

Okay, I'm picking my bundle up after school tomorrow but I'm still stuck on what I want to get with it. I'm picking up Katamari on the 22nd, and a $20 PSN card for a couple downloadable games, but I don't know what to get with the system. I'm leaning towards Rayman, but WipEout is also a possibility. Will I turn into a ball of anger if my previous racing game experience was Burnout: Paradise and Mario Kart?

Tithin Melias posted:So is it a hard and fast rule that if a PSP game is up on the PSN that it will work on the vita? and if so, is there any sort of discount on any PSP games active at the minute? Not at all. There's only 250 games that are officially supported that you can download from the vita, but you can get most other games ro install over a PS3, but there's no guarantee that they'll work.

Picked up my FEB and Wipeout. I also got a $20 PSN card but I'm not entirely sure what to get with it since I'm still using the 4gb memory card and have some psp stuff on it.

Vinlaen posted:Right, but I just wish it didn't look blurry. I suppose it's the same effect as watching SD TV shows on an HD TV (but not quite as bad). I agree with you on P3P looking kinda bad. It doesn't seem to have taken to the scaling very well at all. I want to say that they were doing some pseudo anti-aliasing on PSP and it doesn't look good on a different resolution. Half-Minute Hero looks pretty good from what I can tell, though. I'm going to try transferring Peace Walker, and if that doesn't work I'll give Ace Combat: Joint Assault a go to see if 3D stuff fared better.

Peace Walker worked with a standard transfer for me, it's also really loving hard to play on both your vita and PSP at the same time.

Policenaut posted:Hey, quick question: can a Vita download content while in sleep mode? I'm about to turn in for the day with it and I figure it'd be nice to download that big rear end Rayman Origins demo while I'm not playing the Vita. If you just tap the power button it keeps downloading. It seems to work as long as the light is on. E: wait, I think that's wrong, I let the screen turn off and it kept downloading. Sleep mode seemed to pause my download.

I have a feeling we'll see PS2 classics support at some point in the future. Right now PSOne stuff isn't supported so it's too early to tell where they're going to take the system. \/\/gently caress that, if God Hand is playable on the Vita then it's $300 well spent.

Dantes posted:I have the same problem. I tried at home, university and a nearby coffee shop, nothing. Went online, found the provider for the service (skyhook or something). Went to see their map and my region is supposed to be covered. It's kinda working for me. It can get an address (and it's found like 8 other people  ) but it's 5 minutes away from where I actually live. That's close enough for IP location, I guess

Dantes posted:Did you give/receive gift with them already ? How does it work ? Are they 1 shot use or you can give them many times ? Is the system robust enough so that if they were playing at the moment you could find them with Near and walk to them IRL ? I probably couldn't find someone since I'm in canada and wifi location is spotty at best, but it looks like Game Goods depend on the game. I found one for ModNation Racers that looks like a kind of thing to build tracks with, so I assume it would just be added to my tools inventory thing if I had the game. I seem to recall hearing that some of the ones for Katamari were consumables, though. When you find a game good you can leave it until you want to download it, but it expires in two weeks unless you redeem it.

VarXX posted:Yes. Not sure how much they use though, and don't really know where to check. It's on the front of the box. All vita games have a little thing that says XXX Space required. None of my physical games have needed more than ~60 MB, and that's including the 50MB WipEout patch.

Even though the last CoD game I bought was MW2 (and only because my roomate pressured me into doing it) I'd probably still get whatever hits the vita if Unit 13 doesn't satisfy my generic brown manshoots hunger.

Dramicus posted:Its like a laptop/phone charger, where you have a power cord that plugs into one side of the "box" and a usb cable which plugs into the other side. I don't really see a problem with it. My biggest gripes are that it's 1500mA and because of that it's keyed so you can't fit a regular USB cable in. I like the long cord and wish I could use it to charge my cell phone.

Even though it is story heavy, Persona 3 has a decent plot and I can easily spend ages grinding in tartarus. Also, what's your PSN Name? I want to see If I have managed to run into any other Calgary goons via Near. E: Near usually takes 4-5 tries to get it to actually find my location, so maybe you just need to keep hitting the button?

Primoman posted:If you'll permit me, I'd like to ask a couple more newbie questions, just to make sure I've got my poo poo together before tomrrow. 2. No, the Vita uses its own USB cable, which comes with the system. 3. The PS3 is the only way to transfer PSP saves to the vita from a PSP. Media Go and the Vita Content Manager don't share data. 4. It made me connect to download an update before I could log in so I think that's bullshit.
