The day is finally here! Today is the day that North Americans and Europeans get their PlayStation Vita game systems. Today is the day that my bragging rights (two Vitas, all the games) end. Today is the day that I get a billion Twitter and Facebook messages on how my Lumines: Electronic Symphony score was topped. Today!
If you haven't yet, tell us what you're getting today along with your system. If you need help choosing, check out our Vita reviews:
Also be sure to check out these fine Vita-related articles:

I'm learning, but it's taking a while.
Luminescence is definitely a different beast, but you'll love it once u get the hang of it. Check out the tutorial (if they have a tutorial) for a better idea of how to make big combos and such.
You kids have fun and play nice now tho. Lemme know how that thing is.
It would be nice to see some of its other features excel to the same extent as the gaming does, but I am happy with the system. I believe we will be seeing many firmware updates to improve on things such as the web browser, and the customization of the user interface. As of right now I have to recomend Fifa, uncharted, and lumines because these games are incredibly addictive and loaded with content so that you get your money's worth.
Should look up Dale's article detailing how little Japan's reaction is indicative of anything when it comes to a hardware release, much less a handheld.. Might blow your mind to see that Japan =/= World
Initial, pre-game-playing-on-it impressions: very nice.
3DS, you mad bro?
You have:
"I bought mine and I'm absolutely in love"
or
"I don't have one because I think they're shit (most likely because I don't have one)"
That's just what it looks like to me. I picked up my FEB last week and I haven't been able to stop playing the damn thing.
Pissed Pissed Pissed.
Will be picking it up tomorrow, though. Can't wait for my UMvC3, BlazBlue and Rayman to come in from Amazon.
