Little Deviants PS Vita Bundle Releases One Week Before Launch

If you pre-order

by Patrick Elliot Thu 27th Oct 2011

Sony already revealed the North American PS Vita release date — 2/22/12 — but if you simply cannot wait that long, the company is giving you the chance to get your mitts on the system one week early by pre-ordering a newly announced PS Vita bundle.

The bundle — which currently is only slated for "select retailers" in Canada and the US — comes in both Wi-Fi and 3G model varieties, and includes a case, a 4 gigabyte Memory Card and a copy of Little Deviants. The 3G bundle will cost $349.99 and the Wi-Fi version will go for $299.99. That's just fifty bucks more than the base models.

If the bundles' February 15th release date isn't enough to sway you, why not check out our Little Deviants preview? Corbs called it "the perfect experience to show off the wealth of creative control functions the Vita system has on offer." Could make for a great way to acquaint yourself (and jealous interlopers) with the system.

I may get this if I actually want the 4gb card instead of a larger size - depends on the prices for those

If the UK get the Wi-Fi Version, I'l definitely place a pre order, yet for some reason I don't see that happening. Although TBH I wasn't very interested in Little Deviants, it's still good value for money, because I'd expect the actual items altogether to cost around the $350 mark. Plus, I'd love to be one of the first to get my hands on the Vita and see how good it is compared with my 3DS.

I would definitely get this if it weren't for the fact that it only includes a 4 gb card. I will need something bigger (most likely 32 gb) down the road, and 4 gb wouldn't cut it for anything other than small games and updates.

@hamispink That's a good point about the SD Card size.

Actually, is anyone aware of how many Game files a 4GB SD Card could hold, as I have completely no idea.

Apparently the PS Vita will only support Sony branded sd cards so information on the price of bigger cards would be useful.
The fact the US early edition bundle is also the Wifi/3G model
seems to be putting quite a few people off as well when Sony mentioned
that AT&T is the service provider for the system at E3.

@MiracleBlaze The ps vita game cards hold either 2 or 4 GB of data, so downloads for full games should fall somewhere in there. Most download only games, such as minis, don't take more than 100 mb, so 4GB could hold dozens of these small games and their saves.
