  1. better line of accessories than the ps3 has had so far

    • Randal says:

      Does the PS3 need accessories?

      • themule says:

        well, PS3 does have “accessories”, but contrary to whatever KCZ is saying in his post, they are all top quality ones : PS3 official cables (HDMI, SVHS, etc), PS3 official blutooth headset, Sony’s Move Controller, Sony’s PS Eye, Sony’s Navigation Controller, PS3 Sharp Shooter, Sony’s 7.1 HD Headset, and some others. If he meant PSP, well the PSP has everything you see above and then some, all very good quality.

  2. Hmmm. I was under the impression that the game memory card was proprietary but the storage memory card was just SD. Are these Sony branded SD cards or something? Or maybe I missed the memo, because that’s looking pretty pricey for storage.

    Or maybe I shouldn’t do a direct conversion of the price to my currency; there’s always that :)

  3. Will the Vita have any internal storage? I can’t believe they aren’t putting any internal storage in it and they are releasing a new proprietary storage media.

    When I pick this system up, the only memory stick I’m messing with is the 32gig so that I can atleast download all of the PSN titles for the PSP straight away. I only wish it came with a built-in 8 gigs to increase the saling point and to make me have a cool 40 straight outta he gate!!!!!!!!!

  5. Does anyone now what format of memory stick it will use? Like a pro duo or micro memory stick?

  6. ZombieHell says:

    Definitely gonna eed a case for safety reasons

    I hope it comes with a soft case like PSP did, that case is boss. but then again, my PSP has taken it’s fair share of beatings, and still works.
