Buyers Remorse...

Why did I buy this thing? That is the feeling I have right now.

It is not a money thing at all... won $6700 on Super Bowl with a buddy. The feeling comes from "TIME"

I have no time these days to play Playstation 3 or X-Box 360. I have such a backlog of games it is sick.

Not to derail the thread, this thing is cool as anything. But when am I going to be able to play anything?

Cool room wallpaper and pictures! How about while you are dropping the kids off at the pool?

Don't know if you're like me, but with 2 kids (one an infant) and a busy job, even if I want to it's not always convient or feasible to get on one of my 2 PS3s. That said there are lots of little moments of wasted time - in the car to the mall or restaurant, while the kid is watching Phineas and Ferb, or when the wife is watching Parenthood.

Part of the attraction to me is that it's like my phone or tablet, no one else looking to take some of it's time other than me. Your mileage may differ, but I can't wait to have the option to game a little at lunch or in bed while the wife is watching TV or when I'm in the living room and the kids are watching cartoons.

I told myself I would spread out the games. 10 seconds in Gamestop reminded me self control and me have never mixed. The damage so far



$20 card on top of what I have in my PSN wallet already for Escape Plan, Hustle Kings and Super Stardust.

Pre-Ordered for next week...

Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus
Shinobido 2
Touch My Katamari
Army Corps Of Hell
Dynasty Warriors Next
Blazblue Continuum Shift Extend

And nobody here have Michael Jackson which was the one other game I was going to add. Not in Gamestop systems at all and Best Buy/Future Shop kept asking if I meant for PSP when I called and I gave up. Future Shop have limited copies left online but will eventually Amazon.ca it if Gamestop don't suddenly get it in. Will probably wait because of that don't and do it as part of a Criterion Blu-Ray order

Wipeout the biggest game missing but never been a big Wipeout fan and the loading times + raising the price turned me away from that one.

Thanks! We just put up the Pac-Man decals last night... the basement is basically my work office, TV/video games and girls play area...

The remorse is going away as I have now eaten lunch and will just accept that I do not have the most time in the world... but finally have an incedible handheld system... I have no games on my iPhone 4.

HOLY CRAP! Do you review games or something? How... going back to time... how in the world will you have time to play all of those?

Sweet pickups though, I only bought Hot Shots Golf...

Nice job. Yeah, it is hard to find time with kids to play. I usually play after they fall asleep at the cost of my own sleep. In reality that just means I play a lot less than I would like.

Im just sitting here contemplating weather or not im going to pick up an early bundle today or wait a week and grab a wi fi only model.....dam decisions lol

My girls are 8 and 6, I still play basketball and softball... on top of work and getting the girls homework, dinner, baths... oh, and the wife too...

We have 3 Sony Bravia's throughout the house, so I could always play... it is energy at the end of the day.

Last night, stayed up watching HBO until 1AM... stuff I have already watched... so why not play games? ENERGY!

Excuses, excuses...

Back to the Vita... this thing really feels solid, it is built really well!

I used to review for a gaming site but now it is just a hobby.... or maybe addiction

Can the first edition bundle be purchased at Best Buy or Gamestop today without a preorder?

I think so, it depends on how many they... I was at a Best Buy today and they asked if I was Patrick when I asked about Vita games... I said no, why?

They said that they only had on pre-order on the early bundle from a guy Patrick.

So, this is a big Best Buy in the area... and to only pre-sell one, you could probably call and get one.

Thanks, I pass a BB on my way home from work so I will check it out. I am still debating whether or not I am going to get one. I really want to play Uncharted though......

I'll get a Vita when the price lowers and better games come out. I have a 3DS which is enough for a handheld right now.

I don't have a code. Or at least I didn't see it. If anyone knows where the code is LMK.

I think the volume is plenty loud enough. I played last night and could hear well with it just over half way.

I got 2 packs of AR cards in my F.E.B. box. I haven't opened them yet, so I don't know if we all get the same set of cards or if they are random. No AR games available for me to try them out on so, I haven't bothered opening them yet.
