I didnt unfortunately but I follow sony on twitter and they were posting a load of pics of the queues at midnight.

I went into game today at 12 and there was a long queue of people buying the vita also.

I think European + American Sales of Vita will be around 600K this week.



Vita is expected to bomb hard in Australia, so hopefully we get our first decent bundle come this weekend. Not a single retailer had a bundle worth giving a f*** about and you were better off importing. Went to several stores throughout these last few days to check out deals and barely anyone preordered the thing, unsurprisingly when it's selling at $350AUD. Our retailers really need to wake up.

This is either a Wipeout dev or a Wipeout QA person. I like the suit

Yea I know its not samus.  Just seeing it made me instantly think of Samus.   I'm sure majority of gamers also associate that type of suit and COLOR with samus than with Wipeout.  Thus feels like Sony is kind of doing a typical rip-off advertising.  You know how like a commercial has a product look like its rival yet not say its name.  Like how all the miller lite commercials have someone drinking a "girly beer" that looks exactly like a bud lite bottle. 

I hate when companies bash others or seemingly copy others.  And to me this suit just screams samus, regardless of whats its advertising. 

Would it have killed them to have the suit be red or any other color than that teal or turquoise whatever it is.



I got mine on 15th.  Im very impressed and I agree with Sony.  The Vita is a game changer.   Get the Trigger Grips case if you plan on playing a bunch of shooters.  It makes the Vita feel like a DS3 / Xbox controller hybrid.

 



I'm really tempted to buy a Vita but it lacks games I really want...
