I have a few concerns with regards to the Assassin's Creed Liberation Vita bundle. First off what I noticed after looking at the bundle was that it does not include a memory card. This is going to be a major problem considering the high probability of this game needing a memory card in order to play/save, so hopefully the bundle ships with at least an 8GB memory card. The second thing that bothered me was that the system itself is going to be white. This would not a problem if it were a home console, however because this is a portable console the system will rapidly start to discolor into that nasty yellowish color. Aside from changing the color to silver I have no idea how to make that work. Last thing I looked at before closing the tab was the price, it is going to be $249. Ok now the price had me thinking, is there going to be a price drop for the base system between now and October when this bundle is released and if that is the case is this bundles price subject to change? Tell me what you guys are thinking about this bundle, any suggestions for Sony while they still have time to adjust the bundle, or if you just think this bundle is a great deal.

pretty sure the $249.99 price tag is just for the Wifi-only version, probably won't come with a memory card.

During the press conference, I recall Tretton saying it would include a 4GB memory card. Might've been a different bundle..

Every description of the bundle I have read states it includes a 4GB memory card.
Even so, there is a slight possibility that ACII:L actually does not require a memory card. It depends on how the game is designed, and how scenes are loaded from the game card. The Vita has been out for a few months now, Sony may have allowed developers to use the Vita's internal storage (I haven't read anything official, but the Vita has at least a couple hundred MB of internal storage reserved for use by the operating system) as a cache.

Well sadly, that link to the AC Bundle on Sony's page?
A month ago, it had a 4GB memory card listed on that page (Because I remember seeing it with that bundle on that same page)

i work at gamestop and can confirm that the bundle includes a 4GB memory card

Because Gamestop is so reliable when it comes to information....
I remember they once told me (even though I knew it wasn't true) that the PS3 Slim could play PS2 discs.
They also told me that there was a PSP Go 2.
And as a result, I don't go to that Gamestop anymore. I think the staff there all got fired.
