Tell us what you're planning to do...

[Ron]

I'm already doing the Android Tablet thing and I'm not mobile/on the go. I'm either at home or work and I don't travel much so I don't see a time when I'm not able to use my PS3.

[madtruckman]

Between a psp, an iPhone, a ps3 and a wii i have plenty of gaming options already. Yeah, its pretty neat, but not $250 neat....

[duncan]

I am in the same boat, if I am at home I will play on my PS3 and if I am travelling my iPhone and IPad have enough to keep me amused. It likely wouldn't get enough use to justify the cost of the systerm (not even considering the cost of the games -- does anyone know how much they will be?)

[robzig214]

Yup, I want to play Uncharted Golden Abyss, and a couple other games. I don't know if it will be a day one launch purchase, but I will get one.

[Lisa L]

It looks like a sweet machine. I tend to fiddle with my ipod during commercials but the battery drains quickly when playing games. I'm waiting to see what kind of bundles they are offering on the wireless-only vitas before ordering one.

Same here. I'd like it to be a day one purchase, but it's not looking good right now

[Alindawyl]

I'm definitely getting one eventually, but not at launch. Won't be able to budget for it until at least the summer.

[NutmegeR]

I doubt if I'll get it for reasons already stated by Ron and Duncan. But as a huge fan of Luminies, I only hope that they'll release the Vita version for the PS3 on the PSN.

[Fenrir085]

I'm probably not going to buy it, I don't get out much and when I'm at home I usually play on my PC or PS3, I'm sure I can spend the $250 on something that I would actually use.

[NotU]

I want a Vita, just like I want a 3DS and iPad (or an Android tablet). At this point, however, I don't have any particular need for any of those. So, eventually, maybe. Just not in the immediate future. Unless I win the lottery..

[Munki]

I'm not going for it either, yet again i didn't buy into the psp either.

[Megatron1984]

No I won't be purchasing it. I already have a wii, 360 and the psp that I don't use.

[MartB64]

Definitely buying one.
Not sure about day one, as I'll be on vacation on launch day, but as soon as my funds are replenished I'll pick one up.

[KinseySS]

I'm definitely planning on getting it just not sure if it will be a launch purchase for me tho.

I really do need to try it first as well to see how shooters play out.

[nightoneracing]

have to say no for right now have to see if I have to buy a new PS3,

[8TrackMind]

I don't think so. As mentioned, the latest crop of smart phones and tablets have made great strides in making the idea of a dedicated portable games device obsolete. Joysticks are great, sure, but great enough to sell a 250 dollar portable? Not for me.

[SMB25]

Personally I hate playing games on my phone. I don't like the touch screen Congolese for the more involved games. Its okay for things like Bejeweled but I want something more robust gameolay.

[Ron]

Yeah, I hate playing traditional Console like games on my Android/iOS devices. The super casual games work fine on those devices, but anything beyond that needs a real controller & buttons IMO. If DICE were to put out a Battlefield game to the VITA I would have to consider it.

[Wolfee360]

Wat is it?...guess there is your answer lol.
