Add the wifi vita in the link to your basket, then add a game (Games can be Fifa soccer, Virtua Tennis 4, Lumines: Electronic Symphony, Rayman Origins, Dungeon Hunter - Alliance) and a 8gb Memory card (Link: http://www.amazon.de/PS-Vita-Speicherkarte-8-GB/dp/B006H3PTF… )

and it seems to discount to €194.00 ($244 converted) delivered at checkout, seems to be a glitch as its more expensive to buy JUST the vita on its own. DONT use amazon converter on checkout, as it charges extra.

Also, whats the story with customs? Can we get stung for custom charges with this (not a local, only living here a few months)?

      The vita has about 4 hours battery life, where as the 3DS has about 3 hours.

      Im not denying the 3DS is fun, it has some great games, but its been out for a while now, so hard to for the vita to compete on that front just yet, but in 6 months or so, the Vita will have lots of great games out.

      PSP2000 with the Hi-cap battery was over 12hours

      3ds and Vita both have crap battery life, not much of a competition there

  • lagunaz on 18/04/2012 - 16:54

    Ordered mine minutes ago at EUR 194,06. Wasn't going to buy one till the end of the year. But as usual, ozbargain gave me a reason to buy it now lol Thanks op and ozbargain! Although I'm no longer in Aussie, I still keep on checking this site for things like this!

  • DEvok on 18/04/2012 - 16:58

    The Vita can CLEARLY display games at 1st gen PS3 levels of quality. when games start to look better, I don't think the battery is going to be any better till new battery packs are made. In. The end im going to purchase a vita anyway, like which consoles havnt I purchased, have everything well maybe except Xbox.

  • doggykit on 18/04/2012 - 17:26

    Is this expired? Someone confirm please!

    • tborsje on 18/04/2012 - 17:59

      I just brought it (specifically, Vita wifi, 8gb card & Rayman Origins) and the deal still works. $243.95 on my internet banking.

      • beralj on 18/04/2012 - 18:04

        Does it come up with the discount in your cart? Because mine's showing all the original prices.

    • pao2x on 18/04/2012 - 20:23

      I think it was the OP for the 3G model deal

      • [Deactivated] on 18/04/2012 - 23:18

        Yeh guessed that, just saying though, when I'm looking for a bargain I don't go straight to amazon Germany

    What game did everyone pick? I went for fifa. Was debating between that and rayman, but went for fifa, as I should get much more use and value out of it.

    • pitoui on 19/04/2012 - 23:02

      Fifa also!

      Was tossing up between that and Virtua Tennis.

  • JimT on 18/04/2012 - 18:37

    Just ordered… Paid $254 for it.Guessed that it must be the exchange rate…

  • Scallyswag on 18/04/2012 - 19:43

    Added 3g from the link, not wifi version. Lol

  • doggykit on 18/04/2012 - 20:55

    got on this deal thanks op, repped.
    anyone have any clue whether the price will drop lower then this in future maybe say around december?
    chose virtua tennis as i love tennis wanted to get uncharted but $41.81 "vouchers redeemed" was not valid somehow it says $20 something…

  • zigamagoon on 18/04/2012 - 21:57

      Keep going for one more screen (Weiter), it'll ask you if you want to use currency converter. Just say NEIN!

      • SubZ on 18/04/2012 - 23:11

        Does it convert to 194 EURO after clicking Nein?

        • zadax on 18/04/2012 - 23:17

          Click nein and see. You won't make a payment until you click "bestellung abschicken" as per OP's screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/cpvpX.png

          Just checking, did you pick the wifi version, not the 3G? I made that mistake at first.

        • SubZ on 18/04/2012 - 23:30

          yep, I had the 3G + Wifi one… comes to 193.57 EUR now, thanks

      • Dingo on 20/04/2012 - 00:03

        Apparently if you want to confirm your order in German you need an ABS Chicken. Other than on angry birds, where can I find a Chicken with 'Anti-lock Braking System'? :)

        Sorry, the 'bestellung abschicken' just gets me every time :)

  • bargrin on 19/04/2012 - 03:09

    I just got a "sent" confirmation email.

    do they still send via DHl so you can track ?

    Last time I bought an onkyo amp from them they sent via DHL and took 4 days to arrive, was very impressed!

    • rmk on 19/04/2012 - 08:59

  • CheapCoffee on 19/04/2012 - 03:14

    I searched around about language options for FIFA (but may be the same for others) and found that the language options are automatically determined by the system language. Hope this helps anyone making a decision.

    :)

    • Eanan on 19/04/2012 - 05:42

      really? you got a link to that? Thats great news if so!! I assumed it would have german menus, but that I would know how to navigate them anyway. I also read on forums saying that its only 1 language on fifa vita per card??

      • dancube on 19/04/2012 - 08:41

        This is how it worked on the PSP, and other Sony consoles. I would assume they've continued this trend.

      I got this email too and my order was cancelled for "security reasons". Even my Amazon account was LOCKED!!!!

      It seems they found this great deal is turely a system glitch then make such a stupid excuse to deal with the existing orders. Good Job! Amazon.

      This deal(or glitch) is still existing now but I don't recommand you guys to place an order because it has a very high chance to make your Amazon account LOCKED unless you fax them a bank statement.

      • akanian on 19/04/2012 - 10:16

        Did your creditcard get charged yet?

        • JulianCho on 19/04/2012 - 10:45

          No, I don't think they have even tried to charge so they can use this "security reasons" as an excuse. I paid my Vodafone bill using exactly the same credit card and everything is OK.
          If your credit card has been charged, Congratulations, they can't use this excuse again and have to ship your order. I'm not sure if they can find another excuse to prevent this happen but you'd better keep a eye on it.

      • JimT on 19/04/2012 - 10:48

        Is it safe to send them our bank statement??? I have got no problem of doing that but I am just worried on identity theft.

        Will try calling them later in the afternoon.

    • JimT on 19/04/2012 - 11:29

    Pulled the plug. Been watching this thread like a hawk and trying to resist. Don't know why, but I bought the old psp and a bunch of games I never played and ended up selling it, and I think this will be a repeat in 2 yrs time @_@

    My mind is at peace~~~ Serenity….

    On another note, one of my mates told me there might be issues with the memory card being from the EU region.

    But since we're sort of part of the EU region, would that card still work?

    • Snorkel2226 on 19/04/2012 - 14:02

      You will need an Aus adapter, definitely. It can be charged via USB however so if you have an iphone charger or other USB to wall plug you can charge via that.

      The Vita works like a data/power connection to USB, which then connects to its own brick to then connect to the wall so the USB section can be removed and plugged into a PC/PS3 ala can be used with other wall USB plugs

    I see that a lot of people are either having their order cancelled due to security reasons or bank statement requested. I think it may have something to do with properly registering an IP address when placing the order (as oppose to having it hidden) and perhaps certain credit cards transactions didn't go through smoothly, such as all AMEX or Visa for example… Not sure exactly, just trying to help work out why through the process of elimination…

      How can you tell you couldn't cancel? I cancelled my order (I think) and redid for the lower price and it didn't come up with anything stopping me. But I didn't get a cancellation email or can find cancelled orders (but it's no longer in my orders, so I hope it cancelled!)

      • Chinotto on 19/04/2012 - 21:20

        Really? Straight after I've cancelled my initial order, I received a confirmation email. I even wrote "your PS Vita dropped price a day after my order" as my reason for cancellation. Probably it's best to just email them incase?

        • beralj on 19/04/2012 - 22:35

          I did get the email-I had to quickly leave for work (re-doing my order made me already run late :P).

    They give you refund if price drops after buying but needs to drop by more than a certain amount

    • sumok3n on 19/04/2012 - 18:59

      can you prove this, cause i bought it before the 2nd price drop… so now i've lost like at least $40 by ordering it like 5 days before..

    Managed to cancel and switched game to Fifa.

    $237 shipped too. Thanks for the heads up.

  • doggykit on 19/04/2012 - 19:41

    all lucky you managed to cancel they confirmed my order shipped before i could cancel!

  • zzyss on 19/04/2012 - 21:04

    Edit: hmm…

  • xenway on 19/04/2012 - 21:32

    where is the offer of dropping 10$ off? I couldn't find it anymore!

  • quislor on 19/04/2012 - 21:46

    They must've had a heaps of cancellations, so they bumped it back to the original 199.
