Faulty units happen, especially with early runs. For Sony's (the company) sake I hope that Sony's (the user) problems are just minor kinks and not indicative of a design flaw.

UPDATE:


It's looking promising, as the L.E.D. light finally stopped flashing, meaning the battery is completely flat, so half an hour ago I chucked it on charge and the charging light has actually come on.


In about 3 hours, I'll attempt to turn it on. Will keep you posted. :smile:

Fingers crossed.

Really awesome news, all!!!! B)

Good to see the resurrection and I LOL'd at the fact that on another forum, a member is saying " SONY if I may ask, what do you do for a living?" Classic


If you hadn't already put wheeler dealering, I'd of told them to remember that pic of you in the Bra and then pointed them to your Exclusive pay per view site :lol:

 

[Nintendo]

Awwwww, are you a subscriber of my pay per view site?

Lol, I just saw that too.


Congrats on getting it to work again Sony!

Let me get this straight... the PS Vita isn't unreasonably priced as a unit, but in order to actually use it to its full potential I need to drop ~£100 for an acceptable amount of storage?


*facepalm*


I'm probably going to buy one anyway, I'm rubbish at sticking to my principles... but wtf Sony? WHY! WHY! Your proprietary format rape of customers needs to stop!


Micro-SD to stupid-sony-memory-card adaptor in 3-2-1...

Awesome! Glad it wasn't permanently broken. Sounds like something they can fix with a software update.


EDIT: I've been meaning to ask: How are the nubs/joysticks? Do they have a decent amount of travel?

Good point about the Micro-SD-to-stupid-format adaptor, I hadn't thought of that... My only concern is they said they were using their own format for some security reason. I wonder if we'll even see adaptors. :\

Is Sony the only community member to get a Vita? No opinions on the hardware/games?


Just some first day thoughts would be cool, I'm not looking for 2 page reviews(unless you would like to). Worth the import pricing? Is it as cool as it looks? Do you see not touching your 3DS or Pandora for a few weeks?

I'm not going lie to anyone here, but these 2 analogue sticks (not nubs, by the way) are the best I've ever used on a hand-held. Very decent travel.

Wow... I guess it must have escaped them what the S in SD stands for... face, meet palm.


I imagine the security reason is something along the lines of: So people can't publish games or software without going through us. But isn't that what software signing is for! Or it's probably for their financial security, HA!


Doesn't really matter, anyway, the hacking/homebrew community will inevitably bypass any security measure of any kind.


I see that a 16gb card is listed at about £45 at GAME, with 32GB nowhere to be found- probably due to the astronomical price. I could probably stomach that cost. With any luck my journo-fu will get me some free software to fill it with. I'll certainly be looking to do PS Vita game reviews.

W00t! Hacked!

 

[Nintendo]

Vita games aren't hacked yet though.


Anyway, I can't stress enough to everyone that PS Vita is the greatest, most amazing hand-held console ever created.


It has blown me away and exceeded all my expectations.


10 outta 10, overall is not even close to explaining the awesome power of PS Vita.

hmm... looks like it's psp emulator hacked so will only run at the psp hardware level of performance (i'm guesing)


like on the nintendo DSi you only got the performance of the original DS when running emulators etc


I'm sure it will happen soon enough... I'll be cash in hand once it's hacked to take full advantage of that sweet sweet hardware

I was actually referring to DSi mode, but I think my "scene" knowledge is a little dated... apparently late last year they broke "DSi mode"


you are awarded +3 internets


...but yea same concept
