Hai new here, it is worth buying vita now, any other new version of vita coming out?

latest and new version already available rite now, psvita 2000

Where to get it? Sony Shop?

well i not sure whether Sony Shop (Sony Malaysia) already have the new vita 2k for sell, u can check their website for more details,

or you can get it from the sellers at the garage sales, pricing around rm7xx, SG set.

any place/online shop sell blue/red color PSV??
most seller in LYN selling black color only

Sigh, why can't the R3 PS+ get english games? :\

Hi all,

i am planning to get a ps vita today and subsribe the psn+ us to get a free soul sacrifice.

My questions is, what do i need to do to register for the US PSN? do i need an american credit card or home address?

if i subscribe for the us PSN, i can oly play online for all R1 games only right?

what i do:
1. register with a US address (i simply choose one random address in US. Starbucks addresses works fine )
2. Dont use any credit cards.
3. Buy US PSN prepaid cards from trusted sources ( i normally use Play Asia, because they have digital downloads and more trustworthy; meaning didnt use stolen credit cards to get prepaid cards).

It should work after this. Been doing it for more than 4 years now

waiting for my Vita to reach me.. delivered today.. tmorrow hope can get.. otherwise.. need to wait next week..

Dear bros, i have bought a second hand PSVita a HK set.
The seller told me that if the console is R3 it can only play R3 games.
However i do remember reading somehwere that console has no region lock thus i should be able to play R1 games with it as well.

Can someone clarify this for me as i am planning to register for PSN+ US and download the R1 games/

lol wth that saller

U can play any region game. But vita bound to 1 PSN. So chose wisely.
If u buy R3 game u can't download DLC from PSN R1.

Bro, lets say my PSN is R1, i can still play R3 games online but i just cant download the DLC right?

Yes u can't use DLC...u can't co op with other region for certain game.

PSvita not like Nintendo. U can play at any region. My Vita was HK set, I register under US PSN and subscribed PS plus and play all the game I download from PSN.

To expand a little further...
There are sometimes Japanese titles (R2) distributed among few R3 PSN... if ya getting the R2 physical copy, I believe you are able to download the DLC (if they offer) in R3 PSN that distributes the same title...

Online play is really depending on the game iteself, some games allow players to play with other players of different PSN but some just don't...

Also to be safe, just go with Physical copy, don't ever bother with digital, Sony has the worst for the owner of digital game copies...
At least Nintendo comes clear with the region lock, Sony has been going back on their words quite often or kept changing statements to confuse you... I had everything Sony game systems except PS3 and beginning from this VITA, I began to hating Sony more than loving it, I can't find myself supporting this abysmal corporation anymore... Players outside of Japan are treated like shits by Sony, think and choose the PSN wisely if you really have to stick with PS Vita...

This is really sad and confusing but thanska lot for your great effort to explain to newbie like me. To be hoenst, the main reason why i buy vita is to play ragnarok only LOL.

I am thinking of buying the physical RO ACE R3 today and play it online. I have not registered for PSN. In this case then i guess my PSN needs to be R3?

The answer will decide wheter i should wait for the R1 RO Ace or directly go for the R3. I am also not sure what is the difference of different PSN, is it only about the free games of what the different region provides?

Argh why does this has to be so complicated LOL.

I will just sum it up the best I could... hope I dont confuse you more...

1. JP PSN:
-All JP titles, up to date with latest games, many free/paid special DLCs; many demos; many mini games; many archive psp/psone games; Playstation Mobile games are available, free or paid.
-BUT non-JP credit card is rejected 99% of the time, thus more expensive. An isolated community, don't like to game with players from other region except for Dragon Crown the only game I knew of that you can see japanese players outside of JP PSN... perhaps some fighting games??

2. US PSN:
-All EN titles, period... Credit cards may or may not work ... expensive bcos of conversion but then nah, sometimes they will do promotion where you can get free PSN points...
-BUT you can't get JP titles or of other languages...

3. Asia PSN:
-A messy, rojak PSN... There are sub PSN like HK, MY, SG etc...
HK is the HQ and has the most contents. They get JP and EN titles, but not all the time... pricing is subjective and different among sub PSN but definitely cheaper than JP PSN...
-BUT there are times they just don't release games you want... and some sub PSN may not release a game that is released in HK PSN... Chance forced to swap account is high with this Asian PSN... Worse experience? They may release the game but not necessary the extra DLC, you're screwed if you own digital copy in this situation... So if you choose R3 PSN? NEVER EVER GET Digital content from them!
So in the end, not getting digital copy, then the difference of PSN is the DLCs/demos, languages and misc. mini games...
You care about DLCs? Well, R2 games sticks to R2 PSN, R1 games sticks to R1 PSN, R3 games? Nah, as long as it's not digital, you are fine with the other two except korean/chinese version...

The general bad things for using Sony PSN... don't bother with Customer service...
JP, you don't speak japanese, why bother? Their service is definitely there, but don't know if they will/can read english...
US, you know you're not supposed to be in their PSN if you're not US residents, why bother? Well, at least their service is there
Asia? EFF these guys, they don't really care about your complaints most of the times... I seriously doubt they have customer service...
So yeah, that's Sony today...

Vita use alot on memory? Ah?
Is it Worth getting on 32gb or 16/8gb oledi enuff for gaming

It varies between users. If you subscribe to PS+ you should expect to use a lot of memory as you download digital copies on to your memory card.

For instance, Killzone takes up around 1GB the game itself + 1GB for patch.

average each of game size? oh rite can buy games online on PS+ Store and direct install inside the memory card..
