Playstation Vita

[Minions]

If u guys want to talk about the conference, can we all talk about it in 1 thread (the TGS one) also I posted this there but it is also vita specific.

Stream just came on for a few seconds and this slide was up on the screen:



Apparently 26 launch titles.

[Hitoshura]

In this week's Famitsu, a remake of Ys 4 (most likely Mask of the Sun, as that is the canon story) has been announced for Vita. It'll use Ys 7's party system.

Came buckets.

BETTER BE REGION FREE STILL

REGION FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Hyan]

So what's the release date?

Do we not have a release date?

[hey]

Iirc, was december 17 for japan, no idea if a date was announced for us/eu.

[Kaisha]

So when the heck are we going to hear word on how amazingly overpriced the new propriety memory card format will be?

[Hyan]

Just talked with Kaz, this is what he told me:

Memory card 4GB December 17, 2011 ¥2,200
Memory card 8GB December 17, 2011 ¥3,200
Memory card 16GB December 17, 2011 ¥5,500
Memory card 32GB December 17, 2011 ¥9,500

[Kaisha]

Yeah, posted too soon, found info on some of the other accessories also, the usual crap.

But uh....yeah, I'm not paying that much for an 8gb stick. I don't see digital purchases being too popular for the first couple of years. I've been spoiled by the low prices of USB sticks and SDHC cards the past couple of a years, I don't care that the tiny micro card formats cost more to make.

Yeah that's pretty fucking ridiculous on top of it already being the most expensive handheld.

[Odin'sLaw]

trying to work out this out so roughly £80 for the 32gb memory card? if that's right go fuck yourself sony

[Hyan]

I don't think it's going to be straight yen to dollar/euro/pound conversion. Still expensive tho.

+ VAT :D

[Odin'sLaw]

+vat?....go fuck yourself Sony.....

[Correction]

+vat?....go fuck yourself Sony.....

My scottish friend tells me y'all get charged VAT for SD cards and blank HDDs so I'd expect the rule to extend to things like these new MemoryStick models.

Stop the crying already...

You know full well the price for those cards will be adjusted for where you live so that their cost is similar between the regions. They always do this, you know this.

So England will still have to pay out the ear unlike America, that makes it much better, oh wait.
