Around 3 hours playtime, it's pretty bad really. Still, it's not like I'm going to be playing more than 3 hours Vita while out and about realistically. It's definitely more of a 'city/commuting lifestyle' type of device more than a traveller's device though I think. I mean 3 hours. Come on.

I've two PSP's and they've been more or less excellent. The fat was bought in 2005 and has been used every week without fail ever since on the commute, considering I don't use a case or treat it with special care it's not only the best gaming device it's probably better than any electronic device I've ever bought.
I'd need at least four hours of life though and when I'm going down to London around six+ hours, which I can easily get by carrying spare batts around.
Am sure I'll cave in and get one at some point though as I'm excited at the overall package just as I was when Sony first announced the PSP itself.

Yeah that's the thing, the battery isn't user-removable so you can't swap out for another one, you've just gotta recharge it. Still it's not all that bad, it's not like I've found the battery life crippling or anything. For anything but games I imagine most Vita owners will be using a smartphone instead so at least the battery gets saved for what's, er, important I guess (haha).
Asked this in the Vita thread in Headlines as well but thought here might be more appropriate, but does anyone know if AmiAmi mark down? Wanna order a couple of copies of Wipeout 2048 from there.
EDIT:
Question regarding PSN accounts -
I'm just on the verge of making a Japanese account on my Vita (never owned a PS3 or bothered making one on my old PSP), but I wanted to check that I'd be able to play UK game cards online with it. Can I? I know I'll be locked to the Japanese PSN store and only be able to buy DLC for Japanese games, but as long as I can still play online multiplayer with UK retail-bought games that should be fine.

Just got a 3G model with an 8GB card for my bf from gadget-asia... paid ?332, didn't get an option for free shipping for some reason.
If its sim locked then I guess I'll just sell it on ebay and pick it up on the UK release.
Now I just need to find Golden Abyss at a decent price with quick shipping.Last edited by shaffy_oppa; 08-01-2012, 20:20.
