To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.
It's a great handheld gaming device. Bought it because I wanted to play ps1 games and it delivers, not to mention the many exclusive games that it runs. Awesome all around
Lovely little console: neat, lightweight, attractive colour, just as shown in the image, and easy to figure out and use. For anyone who hasn't used a Vita before, the "Welcome Park" option on the main screen has some genuinely helpful - and fun! - tutorials. Both my EU/UK and (obviously!) Japanese games work on it. I believe that USA games also work, but cannot personally confirm this as I don't have any.
I've included some information below that I hope will be helpful to others when buying this console.
For buying accessories and checking out online instruction manuals, please remember that this is the newer, slimline model (2000 series).
The console comes with 1GB internal memory, but I'd suggest buying an additional memory card.
The package includes a transformer (100-240 volts), a Micro-USB-to-USB cable (for attaching the console to either the transformer or a USB port on your computer) and a power lead for mains charging. Depending on the seller, you will may need an adapter plug for mains-charging in the UK, as the console comes with a two-pin (non-polarised) plug which is for use in Japan and (I believe) fits USA plug sockets.
If you don't have the correct mains-charging plug in the package, you can charge the console by switching it off and plugging it into the USB of your computer.
Remember to set your language to English (or your own native language, if different) after switching the console on.
The enclosed instruction manual is in Japanese, so please check the instruction manuals for the PS Vita on the Playstation website.
