If I didn't have to throw my income tax towards my truck/wedding, I'd have a Vita already.

Online with Vita works just like online with PS3. If you have wifi you are good to go. Some games like MLB 12 The Show have cross integration with the PS3. You can actually play the game on the vita and play AGAINST PS3 users.

MK Vita only has Vita vs Vita support tho.

I don't know if I really want to throw down any big dollars for a Vita. The console's been sorta losing in terms of sales and gaining third-party developer support. I'd rather get a 3DS if I wanted a current-gen handheld.

Congrats.

No way,i already only use my PSP for emulation and could get any game i want for free,i'm not going to buy a 350euro handheld to be able to buy a 60euro game just for some extra challenges and costumes.

You forgot the ability to play anybody anywhere there's WiFi.

That alone is enough reason for me to get it. As well as the balance changes.

Seriously? If this is the case, that is awesome! I have wireless internet so I could technically play anywhere in my house instead of being confined to the room... GDLK!!! :D

How does the WiFi online work then? Is it tied in to the GameSpy servers? I guess I should know this by now... :(

I'll be getting one I'm sure but I want to wait for some feedback from players as to how it works. Online performance will be especially important since its not like you are going to play the AI all that much. I'll wait and see how Sony/WB executes this.

It just ties in to your Wi-Fi internet connection which connects your VITA online. I imagine it works just like Wi-Fi for the consoles.

Nope, I don't buy handhelds..I never have to be honest, the balance patch should be ported to consoles (I suspect it will).

me either, don't see the point in walking outside in the fresh air to play a video game or being at a party with your mk. I play video games when I'm at home bored. Besides I hate watching something on a 3 inch screen.

If you're outside waiting for someone I could see using it. Also I'd probably play on my lunch break. Which would mean I actually take a lunch break instead of working at my desk, so that'd be a good thing personally.

Well yeah I could see it for that reason, but I just surf the internet on my lunch break when I'm done eating anyways. I can waste half my day at work on TYM in between things to do if its a slow day. I still hate playing games where you have to pay attention to what they are doing on a really small screen though, makes some details hard to notice.
