Hey did any of you get the Vita, or planning on getting the Vita? I'm not getting one (I hated the PSP), but was curious if anyone else is going to get it?

As of now I have no interest in it, but down the line I probably will be when its cheaper and has developed a decent library of games.

Right now there's nothing coming out for it that I want. A few of the launch titles looked nice like Arm Corps from Hell, but nothing really that I feel requires my attention immediately, especially since i have my 3DS that already has some great titles and many more to come this year (Kid Icarus and Kingdom Hearts <3). But some of Sony's titles don't interest me very much, such as Uncharted. Looks just like the first game, which isn't a good thing in my humble opinion.

It's also not doing so hot in Japan right now, the PSP and 3DS are continually outselling it(I'm pretty sure even during its launch week). Wonder if it'll get a price drop and revitalization like the 3DS did? Its only been out for like a month in Japan, so its way too soon to come to any sort of conclusion though.

Speaking of Kid Icarus, I'm curious to see how it turns out. It looks kinda awkward to play...

Yeah I'm curious to hold one in person.

I fucking hate holding a PSP for more than half an hour. Its so ergonomically impaired its ridiculous.

Also I edited my last post, didn't mean to be the douche who blows up the page.

This thread is pretty old now but I'm replying 'cause I played with a Vita for the first time today.
Was pretty disappointed, I love the Uncharted series, and the one on the Vita is very gimmicky and environments aren't half as interactive as they've been in previous games. Graphics weren't as impressive as I thought they'd be after seeing them at E3, I figured that's the one thing they'd have going for them in comparison to the 3DS, just like the PSP did with the DS. The jaggies look kinda nasty sometimes and the graphics aren't a whole lot better than Kid Icarus or Mario Kart 7, not that they're bad by any means, for a handheld it's still very impressive, just not much more impressive than the 3DS.

These are pretty small gripes, mainly having to do with one specific game but the system itself is kinda suck too. I didn't really check out any of the features but the analog nubs felt terrible, small and stiff (ha), the shape is kind of awkward, tiny buttons are all very clustered together.
It's surprisingly light but at the same time it feels cheap and plasticy, unlike the sturdy 3DS.

It's not... bad. It's really nothing special though, the only thing positive I really have to say about it is that it has a nice big screen. Not as terribly thick as I thought it'd be either, which is a relief.
