E3 2011

[vanthaman]

GAME has started taking pre-orders for PlayStation Vita, listing UK prices of £229.99 for the Wi-Fi version and £279.99 for 3G one.

Sony has so far only confirmed US ($249), European (€249) and Japanese (YEN 24,900) price points for the lower-spec model, whilst the 3G-enabled premium SKU will retail for $299/€299.

The platform holder told CVG that an official announcement of the PlayStation Vita UK price will be made "later in the year", but a source close to the company confidently informed us that there's a UK RRP of "somewhere close to £235" for the Wi-Fi SKU.

Sony confirmed at its E3 2011 conference this evening that the console would be available to buy before the end of 2011.

I'd assume it probably will work.

It will, but who is going to buy it for that specific reason? Would you buy a 3DTV just because you and your mate can play multi-player locally without a split screen?

Probably if you both sit in predetermined positions... which is bit of a hassle...

Positions should not matter with shutter glasses.

 

[afrocentricity]

Oh, 3d glasses still? When are we going to see 3d without glasses? That's the only time I will take serious notice...

 

[Big-Red]

3D hurts my head...

 

[Team Brian GB]

Kinect Disneyland Adventures?

That demonstration was horrific.

Oh, 3d glasses still? When are we going to see 3d without glasses? That's the only time I will take serious notice...

The best I have ever seen is a display with 8 specific viewing points. They have a big one here at the university, but you have to be in specific positions. At the end of the day it is a 2D panel.

Sesame Street? Kill me now.

[Redlambs]

Can Nintendo hit the hat trick and be as dull as the other two?

Probably.

 

[WeasteDevil]

What's the betting that they've put a vitality sensor in one of these new controllers, and it's big enough to stick your dick into?

 

[Randall Flagg]

I assume Nintendos will all be about the Wii 2

 

[afrocentricity]

How would that be beneficial?

Edit: @ Weaste

 

[Team Brian GB]

Nintendo will give us some spreadsheets and sales numbers organised by demographics, narrated by a Japanese guy with poor command of English for a good twenty minutes.

Get in.

Probably, but hey at least it'll be something different, not same old same old

Get in.

With the predictable Mario, Zelda and about 100 party games no doubt.

 

[Team Brian GB]

Reports coming out of Japan say that the nintendo console controller will have a six inch touch screen.

 

[WeasteDevil]

If this is a rehash of remote-play it's going to be epic.

 

[Kaos]

I missed the Ubisoft conference, can anyone tell me if they dropped any hints on Beyond Good and Evil 2?

 

[beardsleybob]

With the mandatory Mario, Zelda and about 100 party games no doubt.

Fixed

Not that I saw, but I was popping in and out of the room all of the time, especially when that weirdo was doing his

I won't beable to watch the whole Nintendo one, so I'm relying on you to provide your usual knowledgeable and completely unbiased updates!

Are there youtube links to anything involving ME 3, TOR or ES V?

[WeasteDevil]

They have a fecking orchestra!

 

[Redlambs]

Now there's an intro

 

[Olly Gunnar Solskjær]

Zelda's 25th deserves an orchestra.

 

[Team Brian GB]

What are they going to play for the unveiling of the new console?

 

[Gambit]

miyamato pratting about with the orchestra

 

[WeasteDevil]

Oh feck, get on with it!

He's already started deriding them for the Zelda intro, so not long after it is shown. Maybe 2 seconds?

A more interesting bet is when he'll mention 'fillrates'
