Vita games are already charting at the top 10 on amazon.co.uk and the system is not even out yet. it's surely a good sign the system is going to have a good opening in the west? I'm getting mine day 1 first time I've ever done that with any hardware launch...
Memory card prices seem to have reduced, 32GB is now number 1 on amazon japan and Vita has been consistently in the the top 10 since launch but obviously amazon is no real indication of actual sales.

Yeah from what I gather from that video it just plugs into the bottom of the PSVITA (via a USB cable?) and you just press that magic power button on it to begin charging. A lot of people wondered how it worked but there's still a few questions like how many times can you use it before it itself...
No problem, one thing that struck me as odd is that the portable charger is what alot of people thought was the external battery. So what will the external battery look like I wonder?
