A great console and a true revolution in the portable gaming industry, but it is sadly unable to play all psp games (so makes it difficult for people to part way with psp's), and the pricing of the console is quite horrible, especially in NZ ($430-$450) and the extra accessories you definitely need are also pricey. Overall good but is better to wait for a price drop from this.
This console is awesome. But the thing is, that it's $250 from Amazon.com which translates to $300nzd. This thing is region free, what stops people from ordering it from the US and saving over $100 and still being able to play the games here-
Quad-Core Graphics + Arm A9 Cortex, the Ultimate gaming portable device ever made by sony. :)
Bought one a couple of days ago and loved it ever since. Price tag isn't so bad at all. The screen has a very high contrast OLED screen that makes it look like a miniature version of a LED tv. Brilliant graphics that is comparable with the PS3.
Definitely a must buy for people who loves gaming or high-end mobile devices.
This console is truly brilliant. The PS Vita has amazing graphics, very responsive touch screen and rear touch pad, the games are excellent good controls and a very easy to use and attractive UI and its all on the go! And the best thing is the many possibilities that the ps vita has and I just cant wait for sony to take full advantage of them.
I got this on the day of release (preordered it), and product works fine, everything was in great condition and the price wasn't bad either.
