Vita - Who has one/buying one?

[raelmadrid]

Am off US next month so thought I may as well wait and grab one over there, should work out a fair bit cheaper

299.99 USD

=

189.522 GBP

i got myself the 3G and a mate the Wifi.

3G = $299.99 @ 1.53 Exchange Rate £189.30
Wifi = $249.99 @ 1.53 Exchange Rate £157.82

The games are cheaper to, as are the accessories, i got a official carry pouch thing, 16GB card and game holder.

Yea I intend to pick up maybe 5 games + memory card etc so be worth waiting it out till I get there.

PSN ID is in my sig. Feel free to add. Only got Uncharted but hopefully picking up FIFA soon.

remember you need to add sales tax to the US prices. I was in New Jersey and had to pay a 7% tax on what i bought. So made the Wifi Vita with Fifa cost me $309. Still a lot cheaper than it is over here.

The sales tax will vary from state to state aswell. Best place to go if you can is Delaware as they have no sales tax!!

I just picked up Wipeout

I think Everybody's Golf is probably the only other game I might pick up atm, otherwise I've got plenty to be getting on with. The leaderboards on Motor Storm are very compulsive!

I seen some of your scores on motorstorm was having a quick go last night.. can you map the x and o for accelerate and brake? the thumb stick is gash

I haven't looked at that, but I might look, I don't mind the thumbstick but buttons might help my breaking issues with some of the crappier cars...

Have you tried sticking in a UK sim card? after reading this I rang them to see what they would say the bird reckoned that would just work anyway with a uk network sim card in - I think she was talking shit like

[jamie_h88]

She got asked by her tutor last year if she would go down to the studio to test a new title. Ended up testing this was quite surprised to see it to be honest. She is called Carrie Warwick think it is under special thanks if your interested lol.

Also the test vitas have mini hdmi built in a feature which I think they should have had in the retail model

[raelmadrid]

ask her if she has any tips for the drift levels

Tried doesn't work. Apparently T-Mobile might tho, I'll wait to see what Sony say first.

If it works I'm getting one of the 10quid Sims from T-Mobile
