Hey Dealseeker, have you had any recurring returns or complaints from PS3 bundles buyers? Or is everyone happy and dandy :) My family needs a media center and a cheap deal would be great, I just have to be super safe with the purchase since its a one way ticket.
Can I add something to the cause? I find JRPGs particularly excruciating in a portable gaming machine, most of them. I feel like text-heavy games should be played comfortably on a couch, without holding the screen in your face and hurting my neck.
I think the 3DS is better suited for short...
I'd say don't pull the trigger yet, considering how lackluster the multimedia features have been for almost 2 years. You'll be left with a games-machine only, and if you don't have time then that would be bad.
