For sale is a Japanese-import PS Vita Slim console, in the "Light Blue/White" two-tone colour scheme. I've gotten what I wanted from this, but there isn't anything else of interest to me, so it's time to let this one go.
The Vita is boxed, and is supplied with a small plastic case containing four loose games, along with two memory cards - one 64GB, and the other 8GB. All of the original Japanese paperwork is present, as are the AR sheets (the Slim version of the console doesn't include proper cards).
A micro USB charging cable is included, but it is not the original one that came with the console. The kettle-lead part of the power adapter is Japanese, but if memory serves (I can't double-check now, as this is all boxed up and ready to send) you should be able to swap it for a UK one or plug the micro USB cable into a standard USB wall wart of the same rating (most phone chargers are, for example), and this will work as it should. (Please note that it doesn't seem to be possible to charge a PS Vita from a computer's USB port.)
This is a UK-only sale, and I'm offering the package for £200 all-in. I will consider reasonable, polite offers. New price: £165, all-in. This includes tracked, insured, and signed-for postage via Royal Mail. Payment to be made by standard PayPal (not Gift or any other method), please, for the protection of both buyer and seller.
I am now splitting this lot. New prices are all-in, as before, and are as follows;
Boxed PS Vita plus 8GB memory card: £90
Sold to SherlockHomeless - 64GB memory card: £35
Four loose games in plastic case: £15
I would describe the console as being in fair to good used condition. There is some wear to the edges on the white coloured front half of the machine, which shows the off-white plastic underneath, and there are the usual sort of daily-use light scratches and dings in various places over the casing, both back and front. There are some dark marks on the blue coloured half of the machine on the right-hand side, which I believe resulted from colour transfer from the inside of a bag that I used for carrying it at one point (annoyingly, this was an officially-licensed pouch! ). There are also some small scratches to the screen, which I couldn't pick up with my camera.
As noted above, this is a Japanese unit, although the firmware can be set to English during initial setup, as shown in the photographs. This means that the confirm and cancel buttons map to the other way around from UK or US units in the OS menus (that is, O is confirm, and X is cancel). Aside from titles that call on the firmware for certain menu functions, this doesn't usually affect games, as they will map this however they were programmed to, otherwise.
Everything works correctly, and everything has been formatted ready for the new owner.
There are some small cracks on the spine of the plastic game case, as this was only a "good enough" cheapo case bought to keep everything together in compact form. As noted, it contains four games, which are;
PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time
The Sly Trilogy (Please note that this cartridge only contains Sly Cooper 1 and 2. Sly Cooper 3 was included with this package as a download code only, and of course that was redeemed long ago. Again, Sly Cooper 3 is NOT included.)
Please note that any games requiring the redemption of codes to play online, or which may have included DLC bonus codes, do not include these, so if you wish to play any affected titles online (I believe that PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is one) or want the DLC, you'll need to purchase such codes or DLC via the PS Store using your PSN account.
