Vita hunting 2015!

That Christmas, the Vita was on sale across Canada. I brought a friend to Best Buy to look for it. When I asked the guy if we could get a Vita, he told us they stopped making them years ago. We insisted that wasn't the case, but he gave us that "you're an idiot" look you give people sometimes, and said "it was discontinued by Sony ages ago" and Best Buy didn't sell them. When we showed him the flyer, he was still adamant he was right. So we left.

Went to a Toys R' Us in the mall that sold Vita games. They had them on the shelf. We asked the clerk if he had any Vitas behind the counter (where consoles were kept), to which he snickered and replied "What's a Vita?" We pointed to the Vita section, and he had NO IDEA what a Vita even looked like. He didn't even try to look for it for us. So we left.

Finally landed in GameStop (same mall) who had a bunch of the blue Vitas behind the counter. They even had a demo Vita still available next to their demo PS4. And irony of ironies? While we were in line, in comes the dill-hole Toys R' Us employee on break with his buddies playing the PS4 demo RIGHT BESIDE THE VITA!!
