I always sort of wanted a handheld in the last year because of my 40min train rides to school...I really wanted a psvita, but I didn't like the price and also I hated my psp and loved my gba, so I got a 3ds instead. However, I didn't really enjoy my 3ds, so I still craved the ps vita. I was really into uncharted (just finished the ps3 ones at the time), interested in Gravity Rush, Unit 13, Little Big Planet and some other games...and I drooled over the idea of playing some of my favorite PS1 games on my handheld.

I heard that the playstation bundles were going to cut to $200 on black friday, I decided I would get the Call of Duty bundle because I like CoD more than AC and wanted black...I went to the store (I prefer not to buy on internet), but by that time all the bundles were sold out :(, so I went home and looked at the official sony website and didn't buy it from there because I didn't want to pay for shipping. I sat there sad, and then suddenly I thought "What about Amazon," I went to the amazon site and all I saw was the AC Liberation bundle for only $179 and 95% claimed...I was like, "WHAT?!" I bought it right away, and didn't have to pay shipping for some reason. I was so happy, I didn't even know about the free 3 months of ps+ and free all stars lol.

lol that was REALLY lucky! you know that amazong deal was sold out within hours? so do you enjoy your vita?

Got mine a couple of days after launch. it was free so why not, though I was still planning to get it anyways. I got the uncharted 3G bundle.

Gravity Rush, Ys: Celceta, Legend of Heroes: Zero No Kiseki Evolution, Tales of Innocence R and later Persona 4(didn't play it on ps2), LittleBigPlanet and Off course REGION FREE! are the reasons i got the vita. My only disappointment is not being able to smoothly log in and out with different accounts like the ps3.



RazorDragon on 02 March 2013

Nothing at all. No Sony IP could make me buy it, except if they released another Legend of Dragoon.



MARCUSDJACKSON on 02 March 2013

i was sold when it was announced. Vita's potential is the reason for my future purchase, and a price cut to $169-$179 would make it happen sooner rather then later

Gravity Rush, Persona 4 Golden, and Uncharted were my main reasons for buying a Vita. I also needed a new portable to play while my brother played with the 3DS.
