    According to Giantbomb.com (podcast 2/14), the games won't become dual analog. You will get the option to assign the d-pad, 4 buttons, or camera to the Right stick. So it doesn't seem that much of an improvement....not worth waiting for if you have a PSP game you like. You could just have the Right stick do nothing and it would basically be the same.

              Don't...when I asked they said it was out by mistake. He did say I could buy 3 games, bring the receipt back and would get back the money for cheapest game.

                Someone stated on CAG that you cant delete saves without deleting the game itself from your system. You can work around this by backing it up to PS3 but it shouldn't require that just to delete a single game save.

                  yeah i read that as well.....reason to make you buy the bigger memory card and deter hackers....but i am sure the thing will be hacked in a few weeks. I hope.

                  memory cards SHOULD be 8,16,32,64 for $20,$40,$60,$80 c'mon sony why are you making the barrier to entry so high.

                              I read somewhere that Near works on wifi.. but in the midst of not being able to get on this site for a day and a half, I have no idea where I read it.

                                Just an FYI (in case it happens to you)

                                From bcruise on OS

                                Soooo...I thought I might have seriously had the first bricked Vita. I had tried connecting to my wireless hotspot while going to work (to see how Near is really supposed to work), but I tapped on what I guess was an empty space on the connection list instead of the hotspot. The Vita didn't like that and went to some black screen with two options - something about Network Operator and Cancel. And it stayed there - hard lock frozen because neither of those buttons responded to taps. Best of all, I couldn't turn it off.

                                The Vita ended up sitting in my car turned on, screen display and all (safely tucked away, mind you) for roughly 7 hours. It died shortly after I got home, so I figured this was the chance to recharge it and get it running again. After getting it charged to where the orange light went solid, I hit Power.

                                Nothing.

                                Tried holding it, pressing it several times, no good, still wouldn't come on. At this point I'm freaking out. Fortunately, I found out from the online user guide that the Vita has something I didn't expect - a safe mode. It's activated by holding power until the mode's menu comes on - I think it was around 20 seconds or so. It's so long that you couldn't do it by accident. I gave the first option a shot "Restart the Vita System" and there was life! I didn't lose any data, from the freeze and eventual shutdown either, thankfully.

                                So yeah - if you ever have problems getting it to start up, there's that. Just make sure it's got some charge and hold the power button down a really long time. There's options on that safe mode menu for upgrading the firmware, reformatting the memory card, and factory defaulting the Vita itself as well.
