With less than a week to go until the console's launch in Australia, we've been gathering up all info you could want on Sony's latest handheld. After looking at the various retailers, we've compiled a list of what you'll be asked to pay on Thursday:

EB Games:

Wi-Fi console - $348 (comes with pre-order bonus if you order before the 23rd)

3G console - $418

4GB memory card - $28

8GB memory card - $48

16GB memory card - $68

GAME:

Wi-Fi console - $350 (comes with pre-order bonus and free copy of Ridge Racer if you order before the 23rd)

3G console - $420 (comes with pre-order bonus and free copy of Ridge Racer if you order before the 23rd)

4GB memory card - $27

8GB memory card - $45

16GB memory card - $65

JB Hi-Fi

Wi-Fi console - $348 (comes with pre-order bonus and starter pack if you order before the 23rd)

3G console - will not be stocked

4GB memory card - $25

8GB memory card - $43

16GB memory card - $65

Harvey Norman

Wi-Fi console - $348 

3G console - $418

4GB memory card - not listed

8GB memory card - $44

16GB memory card - not listed

Dick Smith

Wi-Fi console - $349

3G console - $419

4GB memory card -$27

8GB memory card - $45

16Gb memory card - $65

 

As you can see, there's not a huge amount of variation in price, but there are some decent deals around. GAME's pre-order offer has proved to be quite popular, with the Wi-Fi model selling out on their online store. You should still be able to get your hands on an order in-store though. JB's starter pack includes a case for your Vita, a game case which holds 8 games, a screen protector, cleaning cloth and a wrist strap.
