We got our (my son and I) on Wednesday morning, the First Edition Bundle. We went to Costco afterwards, and we didn&#8217;t go inside, let my hubby go in alone, and we stood at the back of the Suburban, and open our boxes and drooled over them while videoing the unboxings.<\/p>\n<p>Found out in the car the reason WHY YOU NEED A CAR CHARGER from Sony for the PS Vita if you want to charge your PS Vita in the car. Other USB thingies don&#8217;t do it. Quibble all you want, it&#8217;s all right since I don&#8217;t want to zap my Vita incorrectly and have a brick, or have it under powered and never charging enough in the vehicle &#8230; so the Sony PS Vita Car Charger is something I&#8217;ll be wanting to get. Actually 2 of them. Two more cords then too, the USB cords, so we can keep that in our cases and have it when we go out or between the PS Vita and the PS3\/PC without taking our charge cords off of our docks in the house (what I wish for with all my heart, to allow the dock to permanently have the charge cord.)<\/p>\n<p>So, officially in the documentation it says that the USB cord will charge the PS Vita only when the option is checked in the System menu options and the condition for charging this way is: The PS Vita must be off. It it&#8217;s On, no charging will occur. (People online are so upset about this. I can see what Sony wants though, fully charged things are nicer to work with, and USB charging doesn&#8217;t deliver that, so very trickle it is.)<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the deal that it is, I am not saying I know all about it, I just have an understanding and acceptance of status quo. I&#8217;m not hip hopping around wishing to charge via USB ports on PC&#8217;s and PS3&#8217;s &#8230; I don&#8217;t like charging my HTC Evo phone like that, it&#8217;s so slow, so f&#8212;&#8212; slow!<\/p>\n<p>In the First Edition Bundle is a 4gig card &#8230; big enough for awhile. Also the Little Deviants game (full card version) and a Limited Edition Official Case to carry the PS Vita and some peripherals and card. It&#8217;s a nice case, hard sided and zippers fully closed. The PS Vita will fit into it just fine with a silicone body thing around it probably.<\/p>\n<p>We only got the cradle, one for each of us, and WipEout 2048, 1 for each of us. That was expensive enough! I wish I could have gotten something else, but $ as it is, it just wasn&#8217;t feasible. I didn&#8217;t exactly WANT WipEpout 2048 that much, but did get it so we could all play WipEout together, PS3 &#038; both Vita&#8217;s at the same time together. It has that ability as well as single campaign and it&#8217;s something I should learn how to play.<\/p>\n<p>I have tried it before. On the PS3, for like 2-seconds (it seems) I wasn&#8217;t any good. On the PS Vita I am horrid at it. I try and have a little progress, but it&#8217;s so frickin hard &#8230; I&#8217;m trying not to give up.<\/p>\n<p>Really it&#8217;s sad. I could have just gotten Lumines ES but I was trying to be nice and have something we could all play together. So I don&#8217;t have that. I did download the Demo of it after we were home and playing with the PS Vita&#8217;s. It&#8217;s a cool game, RIGHT UP MY ALLEY!<\/p>\n<p>So then today I got points from BB converted to use on <a href=\"http:\/\/BB.com\" class=\"autohyperlink\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">BB.com<\/a> to buy something. I wanted Army Corps of Hell, it comes out on Feb 22. So I got that and paid for shipping to get it right away. I couldn&#8217;t use my certificate with that order though, cause it was for more than I bought (I hate how BB does that!!!) (They could bank the rest of the certificate for another time, and have you pay the tax out of pocket, or whatever, but whatever.)<\/p>\n<p>So I didn&#8217;t finish that order until I looked for something more to buy so I could use the whole certificate and get something else I really wanted, using my PayPal account to pay for the rest. I would have gotten Lumines but it&#8217;s NOT on Best Buy&#8217;s WEBSITE!!!!!! ACKKKKK! So I pre-ordered MLB 12: The Show for PS Vita with store pickup for Mar. 6. <\/p>\n<p>There are other games coming out that I want, 2 copies of Unit 13, and yes, Lumines still. There will be more for the PS Vita sooner than later, but only so much $ to use for it.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love my PS Vita.
