http://www.bigw.com.au/entertainmen..._AID122992/ps-vita-playstation-vita-mega-pack

$44 dollars, amazing value, releases a few days after e3 19/06/2013

Oshimai · May 31, 2013

Worth it alone for 2048 and LBP.

Rogue_Ledr · May 31, 2013

Pretty good offer.

However, why not sell this WITH the Vita?

This seems like it is sold seperately.

Not going to spur new sales like that.

Schobeleth · May 31, 2013

"Time to save the Vita"

Not sure if sarcasm...

Still, a CRAZY DEAL. Awesome games.

The Grim Heaper · May 31, 2013

Yeah, that's a pretty nice deal. This and a price drop could help the Vita out a little bit.

Flarin · May 31, 2013

Hungry Giraffe: Vita's system seller.

heyf00L · May 31, 2013

Let me know when they stop using proprietary memory cards.

Duxxy3 · May 31, 2013

Throwing in a shitload of games would certainly make it easier to choke down the insane cost of those memory cards.

Ingueferroque · May 31, 2013

Is Lemmings just the PSN release for PSP1?

Man, that was an amazing game with an amazing soundtrack.

RMI · May 31, 2013

not a bad offer.

still waiting for the price to come down on 32gb cards though. don't need another 8gb card.

MikeE21286 · May 31, 2013

I'd rather spend the money on PS+ and get Wipeout and Uncharted for $50 PLUS 1-year of PS+ games.

edit: oh nvm, it comes with an 8GB card too (that's what $39.99?)

Funny how Motorstorm RC and Frobisher are free games though.

AnbaLeumas · May 31, 2013

WOAH! I'd definitely pick this up for the memory card and LBP alone!

Edit: I also want to wait on news for memory card price drops because I want a 16GB or 32GB card depending on price.

Elixist · May 31, 2013

nice deal. are all of those on ps plus tho? and do those games fill the whole card?

Himynameischris · May 31, 2013

3 of those games are already free...Still a good deal though

CrazyTank940 · May 31, 2013

Wipeout, Motorstorm, and LBP have my interest. Also having another 8 gig card would be nice

sakipon · May 31, 2013

Some of those are free games... Okay, Frobisher has got DLC but Ecolibrium doesn't, unless they gift some consumable tokens.

Toki767 · May 31, 2013

Two of those games are free...

I Thought maybe there was a Vita Lemmings I somehow missed.

hardcastlemccormick · May 31, 2013

I don't have a Vita and this catches my interest. Good job, Sony, you're on the right track.

Colonel Nasty · May 31, 2013

Decent deal on LBP and wipeout, everything else is meh. Call me when they put out a bigger than 32gb card. I'm tired of cleaning the fridge.

I think there's a Vita specific version that has some levels as free to play.

Anyways this is a great value and finally justifies upgrading from the 4 GB card I got with the Liberation bundle.

I think its a PSM version. It has higher resolution than PSP version.

ZeroAKA · May 31, 2013

Why 8GB card? Sony should have bundled a higher capacity memory card with 1-year PS+ subscription instead.

PhoenixDawn · May 31, 2013

Pretty good deal I guess, still would say that getting PS+ would be the better option if free games were your goal.

Kandrick · May 31, 2013

I am not seeing the "nice deal" people are saying.

Tiny 8gb card with a bunch of subpar games except maybe 2-3 that can pass as decent.

DJ_Lae · May 31, 2013

I don't know the filesizes offhand but would those free games even all fit on an 8GB card?

I've got a 32GB, have five or six full games, some arcade stuff, a handful of PS1 games, two or three PSP games and that card is basically full.

NotLiquid · May 31, 2013

Didn't they try a similar thing with PSPGo which didn't turn out that well anyway?

devonraynor · May 31, 2013

only real saver would be too drop the price on those memory cards....
not paying nearly 100 bucks for a proper SD.
stuck with my 8 GB for the moment, not playing games because of that

botty · May 31, 2013

Adding free games to fluff the deal. wow.

AnbaLeumas · May 31, 2013

ZeroAKA said:

This so much. I would love a year of PS+ bundled with a 16GB or 32GB memory card.

krae_man · May 31, 2013

That is pretty much those 10 games free since $45 seems like the normal price of 8gb memory cards.

AnbaLeumas said:

$45 is the normal price of a 8gb memory card so hopefully the free games bundle will be available for all memory card sizes.

famousmortimer · May 31, 2013

Smart play. Sony has a younger demographic in EU territories and I think that's why they went after things like Epic Disney 2 and the next Rayman game.... and this seems squarely aimed at them also.

Manu · May 31, 2013

"Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters"

Is every R&C title a sexual joke?

bebop242 · May 31, 2013

lol that 8 gig card prob won't be big enough to store all those games at once. Hope they release a 32gig with a similar deal.

The good ones

flippedb · May 31, 2013

You can't even fit those games inside that 8 GB card, wtf Sony?

Carl · May 31, 2013

You'd need a 32GB to fit all that stuff on.

Meier · May 31, 2013

Too bad you'll never be able to buy anything else and probably can't even download all of that as is. I haven't re-upped my PS Plus because my 8 GB is full and I refuse to buy a bigger card until they pull their head out of their ass. The 32 GB card should be $40, let alone a 16 GB card being $60.

baekshi · May 31, 2013

can we have 128gb memory card now

It retails for $30. I can see LittleBigPlanet Vita being free on PS+ by October (or whenever the major yearly Vita refresh will be).

Racket and clank is only game there thats 3GB, wipeout and lbp are like 1GB each, rest are tiny 50-500MB downloads.

This is a Australian retailer, US pricing is different.

DaBuddaDa · May 31, 2013

Value isn't going to save the Vita, a lower barrier to entry is what is needed.

Exactly. I'm still using a 8gb and i could use a bigger one, but i'm not paying the ridiculous prices they are asking, and if their strategy is to add a bunch of random games to sweeten the deal, then i'm never buying a bigger card.

i would buy a vita then

EMT0 · May 31, 2013

The memory card size is pathetic .-.

EDIT: WAIT. #Vita64GB. Do it GAF.

Goldrusher · May 31, 2013

They'll also sell 8 GB cards bundled with the same voucher for €39.99.

- LittleBigPlanet Vita
- WipEout 2048
- Little Deviants
- MotorStorm RC
- Frobisher Says
- Ecolibrium
- The HD Adventures of Rotating Octopus Character
- (PSP) Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters
- (PSP) Everybody's Golf 2
- (minis) Hungry Giraffe

edit: Wait, this thread is about the memory card bundles. Thought it was about this new Vita bundle:

EMT0 said:

Every single console bundle to date came with either no card, or a 4 GB card.

Face it Tiger.. · May 31, 2013

lol an anti-Ambassador program.

darkside31337 · May 31, 2013

This is smart. They should have done this from the beginning, makes the cards feel like less of a ripoff if you just throw a bunch of stuff onto it.

qko · May 31, 2013

I want to make a comparison, what's the retail value of the games? If Sony had gone with SD Cards you can easily find 8GB SD cards for $8-$10.
