Personally I was not considering a purchase until last week. The reasons are simple Wipe out and Little Big Planet are the only titles from Sony I am psyched for. Third party games look okay and I would likely purchase one.
What caused me to debate buying one. EBGames offered a 100$ off Vita's if you traded in four used titles and if you traded your old PSP you would get double the trade in value. So thinking I could get the special edition for 150$ with a 4 gig card and Little Deviants. Also hearing PSVita software would cost less then the 59.99$ thought earlier. Wipe Out for 39.99$ sounds so good. Looking forward I would love CoD and so fourth.
But then I remembered the 3DS I invested in that and ended up paying 100$ more for buying early. Then major third party games like Assassins Creed and the delay of Rayman Origins left me with only first party content to look forward too.
So in debt I can't justify a PSVita also knowing if it sees Japanese level success a price cut will be necessary to save it or it will be Dreamcasted. Third party games in development may never come if Vital does not outperform 3DS's American launch numbers then third parties will scrap projects left and right.
I will wait till this winter to buy a Vita. Likely get one on the cheap on black Friday.
