dont get me wrong, i'm sure it will be awesome; i was so close to importing one, but the recent ridge racer nonsense, low frame rates in 'premium games' such as uncharted, no wipeout on launch, uncertainity of psn accounts usage in the uk, rip off memory card prices, etc it just wasnt worth the heartache or a withdrawal from my ISA

have Vita for ?249.99 (WiFi) and ?259.99 (WiFi + 3G) and they have confirmed units will ship on the 23rd.
Shipping is ?34.89
not ideal if your in a rush for chrimbo, but if you can wait its worth saving money and buying it through them.
having spoke to them they havent listed the games or memory cards up yet, but will once they confirm the details with the supplier within the coming days and you can have your games added to the console shipment.
they also confirm they mark down the parcel for customs! yay!
just a heads up as ncsx are heavily overpricing their units and want $195 for shipping to the UK...

I'd imagine that the Vita will have been opened, the will also be no guarantee. You can buy most things in Hong Kong for cheaper if you negate the guarantee. Has always been the same way.

It doesn't say anything about any restrictions on the product page for the Vita. And it also seems they are now able to ship out more Sony-stuff that they couldn't before, so you Brits and us Norwegians can order all we want

Where is thou manuals?
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 box.
Dynasty Warriors comes with a manual so may just be publisher/developer specific.
Uncharted has been confirmed as being able to play in english on japanese machine.Last edited by Family Fry; 17-12-2011, 02:23.
