Since I thought the cheap 3DS games thread was a good idea. I thought I would start one for the PS Vita. I will maintain this site a few times a day going forward. Post links up to new deals and I will add them to the OP. Anyhow, here we go:

i tried that and they shipped it out within a few hours the same day. :facepalm:
I used to do that with the price dropping items on Amazon and it worked the first few times, but lately they have been shipping the items within hours despite selecting the 5 day delay. But hey, at least I still got a $1 digital credit and the item shipped within hours and received within two days :)

 
I did 5 day shipping so I just canceled it and reordered. Stay #TooPoor
I've been cancelling and reordering Exist Archive PS4 every 12 hours for 5 days. I actually hope it bottoms out soon, because I'm getting sick of this.

I've tried this on other items in the past, and liked others have said, sometimes they ship it quickly, even with slow shipping selected.

Damn, your hardcore CAG, no question. LOL

I honestly would have never thought about that, but I did just recently start prime, so I would normally order games with other items for the free shipping, so canceling in that situation would have taken way more work than I would have been willing to do.

But now, Mmmmmmm?

Its eleven dollars.... It was nine...

If I was ever that desperate for 53 cents I think I'd just shoot myself.

Just picked up PS Vita (PCH-2001) for $90 bucks. Not in bad shape. Touchpad has a few scratches no visible scratches on the screen. Most importantly no dents or chips.

Can you guys recommend a few games? I like shooter games, racing games and rpgs.

I just checked my history. I actually started this 8 days ago. My original order for the PS4 version was for $16.70 before tax. My latest re-order this evening was at $10.97, so I'm near $6 savings. Each cancellation and reorder takes less than a minute.

Shooters it's pretty much just A Killzone game (Mercenary I believe) and a Resistance: Burning Skies. I think Unit 13 was a shooter too. Supposedly all decent.

Racers there is a Wipeout...and a Need for Speed or Ridge Racer I believe.

RPG....many all types. Dungeon crawlers and regular ones. I'd recommend Persona 4: Golden, Dungeon Travelers 2, Neptunia Rebirth 1-3 games, and maybe something like Demon Gaze. There are many though so choose away and enjoy your new Vita. Most of the games aren't as cheap, though some like P4:Golden are consistently $20.

Do you have a Sony Playstation Vita Memory Card?

Shooting Games - Killzone Mercenary, Unit 13, Resistance Burning

Racing Games- Need For Speed Most Wanted, Sonic Allstars Racing

RPG - Legend of Heroes : Trails of Cold Steel 1 (Also on PS3), FFX/X-2 (Also PS3-PS4), Ys: Memories of Celceta

Here's a few games for those genres but some games may not be to your liking.

Anyone need the downloadable game voucher for MLB 15 The Show for the Vita (Expires 3/31/18)? Just bought two copies $5 each from Walmart. Let me know if anyone is interested. Also, went to Best Buy since I remember seeing Odin Sphere for the Vita. It was gone but I did get Earth Defense Force 2 NEW for $16 with GCU. Not Bad.

If you're offering them for free, I'll take one. Been wanting to try a sports game on the go!
 
Odin Sphere is a beautiful and awesome game. I would recommend it for anyone with a Vita.

That is all.
I do have a copy of Odin Sphere, but the art cover is damaged a little. I wouldn't mind having a sealed copy. Should have got it a few weeks back when I bought the Limited Edition of Yomawari Night Alone. Well I did get a different game so it's cool. Beautiful game just like Dragons Crown and Muramasa Rebirth.

Is there anywhere to get a new vita system? Id like one of the last models made but cant find them anywhere. Or have I missed the boat without paying ebay prices?

 
Import a Japanese system. There's still plenty of new stock and different colors to choose from.
I agree, importing is the way to go. There are a few places left that have new units on Ebay I believe, or at least there used to be, but for what your paying in that market, you might as well import, and have a larger selection to choose from.

Sony has long since seemed to have stopped supplying the US, which seems beyond insane considering how many games seem to release on a regular basis. You would think even selling small amounts of new units, would be worth their efforts, but I guess not. But with importing, at least there are other options. When the 3DS supply chain went "dry" during the holidays, and well after, your left with no options but to wait on NoA, which is never good.

Have you shopped around any mom & pop shops? Major retailers are a dead end now.
Dont really have any around here really. Its all bestbuy/target/etc, and lamestop. Well, we have one smaller game place but they only have used systems and I dislike going in there because the guy that owns it is a bit scummy and the store is like a flea market threw up in there.

Is the system in english and such like a US one? Can I log into my US psn account, use US memory card, use US wall plug for charging and such? Just asking cause I know nothing about imported systems.

You can select your language and sign in with a US PSN account, it's all region free and import friendly. It also doesn't matter if it's a "US" or "Asia" memory, they all work.

The charger might be different, but that an easy fix to acquire one.

 
Keep in mind with an import vita that the X & O button actions are backwards from the US version.  The buttons are in the same place but the actions are swapped.  So Accept is "O" instead of "X".  This mostly affects menus but it affects any games that don't hardcode in the controls for X & O as well (No I don't have a list, I have a US system).   If you are used to Nintendo systems with the "B" "A" layout then you are already kind of used to using the button placement for "A" for accept the same as the Japanese Vita uses "O".

You will probably get used to it (same for USA Vita owners jumping between 3DS and Vita), but it might affect some games.   Just a heads up.

It's a shame Sony doesn't support having the Vita on the market in North America outside of being available to publish games.  It some respects if you didn't know about the system and games, there's little evidence in the regular retail shopping world to suggest that it even still exists.

 
I have bought two Vitas from SuperUfo. I got an orange 2000 for under $200 shipped last year. I also got a 1000 refurb model for $99 last year. Both came well-packaged and in perfect condition. Both came with chargers that work fine in the US. The orange (and other colors) is now $178 and the refurb 1000s are $106. Not sure how much shipping is nowadays there. I'd definitely recommend going the import route on Vita consoles. They are the same thing as North American versions other than what has already been mentioned.

Yeah, I've been playing the one Japanese game for four months now, I forgot all about this.

I've always had imports on my Sony systems since the PS1 days, so yeah, it's just something I'm used to now. Most of the US games, when played on an import Vita, revert to the proper X/O config in game, so for most users, only the game select is where it will be reversed.

I've never understood why they switched it in the US. It happened at some point between FFVII and FFVIII, I know, but what was the point?
 
Looks like I accidentally put Rose in the Twilight in the same NISA order as YS VIII.

Welp, looks like it's releasing for me in "Fall 2017."

Please note - this order contains a preorder item, which not ship until its release date. If this order contains multiple preorders, the items will not ship individually. These items will ship simultaneously once all release dates have been met.

:rofl: mine's with Danganronpa 3 LE, guess I've got a wait ahead of me...
