The First Edition Bundle is due to be released tomorrow.
Do any of you plan to buy one?
I personally think it looks pretty slick, but I'll hold off until a few months later. XP

It doesnt come out until the 22nd here but I'd be straight to buy one. I played with one in Game Station a few days ago and I thought it was amazing. Not many games but I don't give two craps about that.

I still like my psp3000... :/

I do like the look of the Vita, but the 3G capabilities of it in Australia are severly limited by the carried Sony chose... which threw a bucket of icewater over any spark of intrest I had for the console..

looks nice, but costs way too much in a lot of areas. I doubt I'll get it for a few years.

Early reviews of the console now that it's been released have been pretty favorable so far... except about the battery life.

Three bloody hours is NOT enough for a handheld, whatever it's capabilities are. >.>

I'll wait for the Vita version 2.0 that will undoubtedly be released in a little more than a year from now - because Sony will milk this cash cow for all it's worth, like they have with their last- wait, with all of their consoles to date. *nod*

Wow, really?

People were telling me that it's battery life was superior to 3DS's.

This is pretty disappointing.

That's a bit too small...

Yup.

And according to some of the new hands-on reviews so far, it seems that games that use the touch screen and back panel more than than other games syphon the battery even faster...

Not good.

Frankly, there aren't usually that many occasions that your going to be gaming straight for 3 hours outside of your house. It's not great, but for the system your getting, you can't expect too straight up battery life.

Any of you guys actually used one yet?
