I went into my local DSE this morning to purchase the Vita/Killzone bundle posted by theearth a few days ago, only to discover they're selling the console unbundled for $169. Strangely not advertised online, but this was the price it scanned through as.

Nothing I can find suggests that the unit is locked to Vodafone (although a Vodafone sim is included). Furthermore, the game Wipeout 2048 is included when you make your first Vodafone recharge (minimum $10, http://www.vodafone.com.au/personal/wireless-internet/mobile…), so not a bad deal if you aren't on PS+ (it's currently US$13.49 on US psn or free with PS+).

    Play Personal 4 on this, it is AMAZING.

  • sptandy on 27/03/2014 - 15:33

    Make sure the 3G model PS Vita that you are purchasing are not locked to the Vodafone network. It seem lukeolivie may have bought one that is locked to the Vodafone network. Read the Red Wipeout 2048 label on the box.

      The 3G is pretty much useless to be honest. Don't know of anyone using it

    64GB cards are roughly $104.50 (via paypal) from Play asia if anyone is interested.

        how reliable are these guys??

        • wreckedandjealous on 27/03/2014 - 20:10

          some guys on whirlpool have bought from them before, and never had any problems… I have never purchased anything myself, so cant say for sure

          They've always come through reliably and quickly for me.

        • EVA-01 on 28/03/2014 - 00:26

          My first purchase from them was like 6 yrs ago for a PSP Slim. They've been around a long time.

  • defenestrator on 27/03/2014 - 18:16

    I'm very seriously considering this just to play Persona 4 Golden and Dagonronpa. Is it worth getting an entire console for the sake of 2 games?
    (Granted, I picked up the 3DS just for Phoenix Wright and Zero's Last Reward…)

    • Gehirn on 27/03/2014 - 18:22

      Well Danganronpa 2 is coming, and so are some more Persona games. Plus if that's the games your into there's a lot more like them.
      So yes.

      Persona 4 was one of the first games I played on it and if I never played another game on the vita again it would of been worth it for me. That game is so amazing

    DAMN YOU AND THE TEMPTATION!!!

  • Quotationz on 27/03/2014 - 18:32

    All of those PS VITA PLUS games through PSN. Oh my I would have so many PS Vita games!!! But will I ever use a handheld? Whyyyyyyyyyy …… Can't Decide…….!!!

    • wtfnodeal on 27/03/2014 - 21:16

      If you have a FT job and not home all the time then buy it. I spent more time on vita than the ps3 I bought years ago

    Is it lock to Vodafone net?

  • pride on 27/03/2014 - 22:58

    got my awesome psvita. with a game. and no memory card :D

  • cintamami on 28/03/2014 - 00:23

    Confirmed, $169 for a 3G/WIFI + A game. wooo hoooooo…….

    but then I spent $120 for a 64GB…. and then another $25 for the starter pack.

    • [Deactivated] on 28/03/2014 - 00:54

      You paid around $30 too much for the 64GB card though.

      • cintamami on 28/03/2014 - 08:03

        Going Japan nxt friday, so I bought it from SUPERUFO with DHL/Fedex option. Perhaps could have gotten away with EMS for 19.50 USD instead of 35 USD, but not risking it for $7 USD (bought 2 for myself and a friend).

        Ended up about $102 USD per person. So, prolly around $110 - $112 AUD.

          If you're going to Japan then grab it from Sofmap for $88 (everywhere in Akiba)

          Then I can't enjoy it whilst on the way there.

      Just a troll looking for some love.

        Or someone who has a valid point and you don't like hearing it.

        • Circly on 28/03/2014 - 15:26

          Yep so you think candy crush is more enjoyable? OK.

        • PainToad on 28/03/2014 - 15:55
          -3

          Casual mobile games suit a lot of people more than the serious stuff on the Vita. So yes, lots of people would consider 10 minutes of Candy Crush much more enjoyable than hours of some JRPG.

          Compare this to the 3DS (which is selling great), where there is a mix of fun casual games and the more serious too.

          But yet again, this is the internet, everyone must have the same view of-course. Silly me.

        • [Deactivated] on 28/03/2014 - 16:37

          So all the games suck (apart from 3DS and phone games) That is a troll statement and you are just another troll joining in.

        • PainToad on 28/03/2014 - 17:48

          In his opinion all the games suck. If they don't for you, great, glad you're having fun.

          Personally I think mobile games "suck". Doesn't mean I suddenly accuse people of "trolling" just because I don't agree with him.

          Some people on here really need to calm down when it comes to video games. Find some more important issues to get fired up about.

          I'm not fired up at all? Calling a spade a spade doesn't upset me at all. I'm just making a pretty obvious observation, nothing more.

          If he's played every one of them and concluded they suck, OK. Chances are he doesn't own a Vita.

  • cyrax83 on 28/03/2014 - 10:45

    For all you new purchasers, two things I really recommend:
    1. 64gb Memory Card
    2. This cheap Vita grip - it makes the console so much more comfortable to play on, you won't regret it http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-Durable-Joypad-Bracket-Holder…

  • bniko on 28/03/2014 - 15:09

    Manage to score the last killzone bundle at wetherill park, someone didnt pick it up yesterday thx ozbargain!!

    1) Buy Persona 4 Golden and Dragon's Crown.

    2) Buy at least 32GB in memory

    3) Join the PS+ network. The US version gives the best games.

  • chappsy on 28/03/2014 - 16:34

    Could somebody please post the bundle code they used at dick smith (cannot quite make it out in the previously posted photo). I picked up a 3g/wifi for $169 at morwell store Victoria. But thinking I'll try return and get the killzone bundle included.. There were 3 more available yesterday afternoon.

  • jace88 on 29/03/2014 - 16:00

    So tempting… is this offer available in all stores?
