Sonic'ly 'good' ?
On that note I'll go to GameStop later today and in the pure interest of science I might buy another title so I can give it a better review.
This being completely scientific and all.. or something..
Review coming soon, no blue spiked hair unfortunately.
LOL. Well i am intending to pick up the spiked one when I collect my Wii U next friday So i might beat you too it
Negatives.. My console locked up once going back to the wii menu. E-shop pricing is a joke. MiiVerse loading the is too slow to make you want to dive into it fully.
Assassins Creed 3 on the wii U looks and plays great on the TV but on the gamepad screen it looks amazing.
The fact I don't get just a 'similar' experience as my bigger console but instead I do get the genuinely same experience has made me question why I am bothering with a Vita, which for the most part I have to buy a game twice (excluding cross buy) to play my console game on a small screen whilst watching TV.
Bought Assassins Creed 3 and so far I've only played it on my Gamepad screen. What this has done has made me realise how crappy the Vita version is (despite it being one of the better Vita games out there).

I've decided once I have completed Persona 4 : golden I am going to trade in my Vita for credit and put it towards future wiiU and ps3 software instead.
I'm also planning on going forward to buy the wiiU version of multi platform titles simply for the play on gamepad experience.
I don't play my Vita outside the house, so 'true portability' in that sense is a non issue for me.
I think your usage of the Vita is a bit skewed - I use mine out and about, which is what Sony intend you to do (see the adverts!), which is a usage scenario where the WiiU obviously wouldn't work. It's true, the Vita doesn't quite provide the same experience (although games like Wipeout 2048 are incredibly close), but for portable gaming it does a remarkable job.
I also don't quite get why you're playing it solely on the low resolution Gamepad as opposed to a nice big TV?
On a side note, price gouging has begun! £450 on Amazon UK for a Premium Bundle...
I guess I am just one of the very few people who see absolutely no appeal in playing a game on a tiny portable screen while my nice TV is in the same/next room. I don't think I have ever turned on my PSP outside of an airplane or train.
Three? You do realise the number after the name isn't how many you're supposed to buy? (...how many Xboxes?!)
Yeah this is the same thing I was thinking about awhile back and part of the disruptive nature of the Wii U. A lot of people buy the Vita because they want a handheld console experience but most games don't match console gameplay 100%.
Here you have a 100% console experience transplanted to a handheld device. Only caveat is you have to stay within range of the box. But for those people who spend most of their time playing their Vita on the couch anyway, they're getting a better experience streaming to the Gamepad than on the dedicated handheld.
