The memory cards a little cheaper than originally reported, but they’re still much more expensive than any old SD card. I’m willing to forget about it because the Vita appears to have one of the most impressive launch line-ups in recent history. Clearly Sony has learned from Nintendo‘s mistake.
What say you, gamers? Which of those games are on your list? I’ve got my eye on Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Rayman Origins, ModNation Racers and Ninja Gaiden.
