*********Edit - I would like to apologize I did check the Sony board however missed the fact that a topic based on this announcement was made two hours before I made it. Please refer to the original topic here!

Well it would appear Sony wants to get Vita's launch off to a very strong start. To do so they are offering a special pre-order deal for all of their loyal fans. Pre-order your Vita right now to get the PS Vita First Edition bundle, available in the US and Canada. When you pre-order the bundle you will actually get the PSVita a whole week before anyone else in North America. You will be the first person in your school or place of employment to have one (At least you should be unless they imported).

But Sony isn't done kissing your butt. Remember how pissed the Japanese were about the expensive memory cards? Well this PS Vita First Edition bundle comes with the following a limited edition case, 4GB PS Vita Memory Card, and the Little Deviants game.

However the American's and Canadians do pay two separate prices for two different models. In the United States the PS Vita First Edition Bundle features the PS Vita 3G + Wi-Fi model for 349.99$ while in Canada you only get the Wi-Fi model for 299.99$. This is a little sucky for those of us in Canada but heck we still get a lot of content.

To get the PS Vita First Edition Bundle you need to pre-order at select retailers, the Sony press release does not name the retailers but I'm guessing GameStop is a no brainer. Best Buy will likely also offer the deal, if you know which retailers are carrying the deal please post a reply update.

So what do you think is this enough of an incentive to get you out to pre-order your unit? I mean you get it a week early that alone is a huge selling feature is that the thing you like most? or do you like the idea of the Limited Edition case it's going to be collectable. Or maybe the card is going to do it for you. Isn't this deal amazing? Of course it does cost alittle more then the PS Vita on its own, do you think the extra cash is worth it?

Why did you lie in your title? I was hoping that they would really kiss my ass.
