Nope totally not worth it. I had a go with one for awhile and thought it was pretty cool. I will get one eventually but your looking at around £250 to get it with a game and memory card.
For what it does I don't think it is worth anything near that. First week sales will be "alright" but after that it is going to drop in sales fast. The reality is the only people who will want to get it at that price are the hardcore gamers. We live in a totally different time now where ipads/smartphones or whatever can all play games. But the main problem is the price of the games. In UK we have to pay £35 for a new vita game. Basically same price as a ps3 game. When you put that into context i bought GTA3 for my iphone at the weekend from the appstore for 69p. Had a blast re-playing the game and it looks far better then it ever did. And the controls are actually pretty cool. Point being there are very few people now in the world outside hardcore gamers who think "i need that for the graphics!!!". Sales of Wii should show you that.
Sony need to package the game up with Uncharted, the pre-order pack and a 4gb memory card for about £150 because the way they have done it is a joke. When you get your new smartphone/mp3 player do you need to buy headphones and things like that? Nope. When you get that new tablet/phone do you need to worry about buying a memory card? nope. And so on. Those things should be included as standard. You should not even be thinking about them. That era of gaming is dead.
