Take a look at the image to the left… what do you see? If you guessed the Playstation Vita… you are right! Even bigger news than you coming to this illuminating and very impressive discovery – starting from today you are now able to pre-order the new Sony console from major Australian game retailers including EB Games, GAME and JB Hi-fi. While this pre-order period is currently limited, doing so will not only guarantee you a console on the day of launch, but also net you a rather nifty pre-order bonus set.
“But what is in this pre-order bonus pack?” You might be wondering. Fortunately there is no need to wait for the details to be unveiled as I have them right here. The pack contains a few things that are not so much for gaming – as they are for showing off and getting a first look at one of the titles, in more detail these are:
Exclusive sleek, blue metallic finish in ear PlayStation® design headphones.- AUD$8 discount on one of the following PS Vita games on PlayStation®Store: Little Deviants™, Super Stardust™ Delta, Hustle Kings™, Escape Plan™,
- Exclusive PS Vita items for PlayStation®Home: PS Vita T- Shirt,Sunglasses,Headphones, Trainers and Bag
- Exclusive early access to Frobisher Says! application for PS Vita
- An exclusive PS Vita Avatar for PlayStation Network
From the sound of things, this pack will only be available to those who pre-order from either EB Games, GAME and JB Hi-fi while stocks last. The pre-order pack will be made available to you once the console is released. The console itself is due for release on the 23rd of February 2012 and will set you back $349.95 for the Wi-fi model and $449.95 for the Wi-fi/3G model.
Either way, from what I have seen of this portable console, ragardless of if you loved or hated the Playstation Portable, they have most certainly updated every aspect of it, so it may be worthwhile checking out – if not just for the range of games slated for release (A fair few titles already for Australia/US/PAL and over 100 in Japan).
