Hey .. have some questions regarding psn account / games locked to a single memory card.. read up on the articles and still having confusion, can anyone here help?

So I (used to) have a PS3 and my main account is a US account which I bought some psone classics, I also have a SG account to download some DLC for some R3JP games I have. Though now I figured SG psn will not be important for the vita since it's not even listed in the page .. (correct me if I'm wrong)

For the vita, if I'm going for any dlc, I should not be worrying which account to use right? If there's a chance I want to get a DLC for my r3jp games, I have to get another memory card for jp psn and also keep my saves on that card?

Sorry if this sounds confusing....

Hey guys, just wondering whether the Uncharted and Gravity Rush is still available in April Instant Games Collection for PS Plus (US PSN Store)? I'm going to purchase the membership subscription within these few days if they are still there. I know that Sony will refresh the list every month and those games are already there since December 2012 I think.

I hope I got what you're trying to say...

You have a US account... tied to your VITA memory card. Correct?
You own a JP R3 Games (non-digital), correct?
So now you want a DLC for that game? Correct?

Well, sticky... anyway, the answer is YES, you need another card if you want to keep the save data...

well, it's kind of pointless even though you get a new card and register with JP PSN... Unless someone knows how to transfer the DLC to your US account tied memory card... otherwise, yeah, pointless...of course, providing someone knows how to do it with PS3, there may be a chance... I'm pretty sure you are screwed with VITA alone...

Since you can't bring the DLC to the US account tied MC anyway... and there is no save data transfer like PSP... in any case, you might have to start out fresh by formatting your memory card (save the $ but lost the save data) and go for PSN JP... again, unless you know how to do it with PS3, I never own one so I don't know if there is any trick PS3 can do to reverse it... something I want to do too without spending extra for multiple accounts...

As far as I have learned about PS3, yes, this is the biggest complaint we heard over the other side of globe. And no clue why would SONY come to this decision for PSV while its big brother gets to have the privilege... either it's the limitation of the system or just purely come from LESSON LEARNED of PS3 hmm.gif ...? IDK... and if you were going for Digital copies, it'd be even more outrageous about what SONY has done after FW 1.8X...

SONY should just drop the V and rename the handheld to PITA, it becomes Pain In The Axx...

a question here, my vita couldn't detect my unifi (but it's detecting my neighbours unifi) , could the solution be just resetting the router and restart the vita?

Absolutely.

Support one user... eh well, depend on what angle you are looking at... it "allows" you to have multiple accounts, only that you cannot cross sharing digital contents (games) among accounts of different regions (account is linked to Memory Card), means you cannot transfer/copy digital games content (don't know about video or music etc) from a US account tied Memory Card to other non-US accounts tied Memory Card, i.e JPN or HK etc... (unless it's a new or formatted MC).

For game card, it's another story, you can have two VITA systems exchange the game cards to play (the 3rd VITA must require deactivation)... DO read the game manual carefully for the limitation, they never get bored repeating the same things anyway...

no, what he means is for the device with digital game. For the gamecard is not like that. You can use game card to any ps vita device. The important thing to look for is only the Online Pass. If the game got Online Pass, so the other buyer need to ask the seller if he use the Online Pass or not. If use, so you might want the price of the second hand game is lower than a game that does not have Online Pass. tongue.gif tongue.gif

Actually, I think as long as the game is "manually deleted", it "automatically" counts as Deactivation too... So yeah, that's my oversight, thanks for pointing that out...
As for digital copy, "game content limited to 2 VITA system" is just total redundant, frankly...

To be more precise, maximum 2 handheld systems that can be activated with 1 account.
Example:-
1) 2 PSP
2) 1 PSP and 1 PS Vita
3) 2 PS Vita

No. you can get all trophies by offline. Patch 1.02 change kill counter a bit, kills are no longer cumulative by restarting checkpoints.
