Yeah, that WB looks pristine.  If only it came with the watch!

I'm not that lucky.

I inspected the box, and apparently this is a first print run version, it even has the notebook with the spiral thingy. And a sticker sheet. I'm not even sure how to price this...

What about the Willy Beamish watch I guess that's missing.

The game doesn't come with a watch but certain boxes included an offer card to send away for the watch.  I'd put up a pic of the watch, but I couldn't find one easily online.  Pretty rare, I'm sure.

That's great about the spiral notebook and the stickers!  I wonder if it was even used...

Got my first Vita game, Army Corps of Hell. Gonna receive my Vita tomorrow (logically)... so I won't bother posting about it then (It's a 3G model with a free 8GB memory card, paid 251$ for it)

I'm surprised about the Vita game boxes, they're tiny... They're a bit higher than 3DS cases, but thinner and they're around two thirds of the length. I guess those will be easy to store.

*EDIT*
I wanted to at least read the game's manual for now since I don't have my Vita yet... turns out there ISN'T a manual.

[madmax]

No manual?!

I hate what gaming is coming too. Less paper means that corps save money and they can charge $20 extra for a "special" edition which comes with 2-3 papers. I miss the old days where NES and SNES games came with maps and manuals and posters.

Anyways. Let us know how the vita is. I've heard good things despite the sales numbers.

Edit: (I've also been slowly adding vita games to the database. If I can get all the games in it now, it's not so hard to keep up with it down the road)

[foxhack]

Yeah a buddy of mine that bought a bunch of games said none had a manual. Even though the cases have the tabs for the manuals.

[jcalder8]

I thought that the Vita was all download only.

[scott]

So Vita games lack a manual? They prolly have them saved on the card themselves... I hate when manufacturers do that.

[scott]

I thought that the Vita was all download only.

Nope, that was the failed PSPgo.

Most every game WILL be downloadable, but you can also get physical copies (so how are we going to handle this on here? maybe we should discuss it in a separate topic ). There will also be downloadable-only games, something akin to PSN games on the PS3.

One thing that's actually done RIGHT this time, unlike the PSP, is that most downloadable versions of retail games are actually going to be a bit cheaper than the physical copies. The only problem here is that you have to get way overpriced memory cards.

Konami Collector's Series: Castlevania & Contra came today. The box is minty fresh and the wrapping is pristine. Unfortunately the box is slightly bigger than both my NES protectors and my SNES protectors... so it sits on the shelf without. Totally worth the $5, ha.

[foxhack]

The box is actually a standard sized cardboard box. Lots of companies use that particular size.

[scott]

Of course it is, I'm just saying I can't fit it in either of my box protectors. Of cpuse I prefer old school PC boxes. The big ones like my Secret of Monkey Island box.
