Feeling that pressure to get a PSVita more and more.

Just a few more games and I'll likely cave.
So which one would you buy physically, and which one would be downloaded? That's a dilemma I know I'd be struggling with every time I bought a cross-platform game if I had a Vita.

INTV didn't end up releasing Curse over here, no.
Out of all of those I'd say Micronet probably did a lot more. It's a shame to see that Curse wasn't released here either, but it turns out Micronet originally developed it, and due to INTV folding, it never got a US release.

I'd probably always buy the Vita version.

If you want cross-buy, you have to buy the Vita version. I learned that the hard way when I bought the Vita version of PlayStation All-Stars.

Don't you mean, if you want cross-buy, you have to buy the PS3 version?

I'm so pissed at myself. I had a copy of Mega Man Legends 2 on my eBay watch list, complete. I forgot about it, because real-life stuff like work got in the way, and the auction ended and it sold, for $46.00. I just sold Radiant Historia for $48.65. Would have been perfect if I hadn't forgotten. :x

I'm in the processes of trading a few games cart (all well known for commanding premium) for example Turtles in time w/m, a couple of Zelda titles, boxed night trap, contra1,2, force, poke red blue, silver, gold and some others for Bubble Bobble 2.

The guy wants to heavily discount my games to maximize cash also involved in the trade $100 dollars

the games according to eBay (fairly priced) all together are valued at around
$130 conservatively speaking. I hate to but might have to let this one go.

what do you guys think about it?

Well, now that the #1 reason to buy the WiiU is no longer a reason to have one. I'm quite annoyed I didn't just wait for a price drop. Also shame on Ubisoft for not confirming a PC version of Rayman Legends. :(

Nintendo better put their game on big time this year.

I don't understand your post. Someone wants all those carts AND cash for Bubble Bobble 2? If so, screw that.
