“Nerdy News” is a mini-news show geared towards gamers, technosexuals, and all other geeky peeps.

In this forty-fifth episode of Nerdy News, I’ll be reporting on:

The “homemade” gift is being updated for the technological age.
Now there’s an easier way to shop for video games.
The PlayStation Vita will have some stiff competition.
Console owners are using their systems for more than gaming.

Here’s the new episode of Nerdy News!

What do you think?

Would you ever make a custom video game as a gift? Who would you give it to?
Is a mobile shopping app specifically for video games a good idea?
Do you think the Vita’s launch price is too high? What price would you like to pay?
How much time to do spend watching videos on your home console?

If you have any advice or tips on how I can improve these videos let me know in the comments! Thanks for all of your opinions! ^_^

Argh! Why does the US Vita launch have to be 2 months away? I will gladly pay the import price but I want my games in English so I have to wait!

Thank you. I went to Yesasia to check prices and they are asking $500 without any games or import costs. It’s a little much for me after all.

You bring up a good point about some of the struggles Japanese game makers have gone through because of the natural disasters this year.

Yeah that’s quite a bit of money to put down on a handheld console. Two months will go by before you know it and the Vita will be available in the western world. Personally I don’t like to buy a console right at launch unless there is a game coming out at launch that I really want. Remember that the first edition is going to have the most problems and right now I’m hearing some complaints from overseas reviews.
