There's also various DLC including a $0.99 treasure map for Uncharted: Golden Abyss, and a selection of new Vita titles which you can check out below:

With all this potential damage to your wallet, you might well be concerned about damage to your brand new $250-$300 console as well. Thankfully, Sony has kindly provided the option to buy one or two years' extended warranty for $29.99-$39.99, along with an accidental damage plan for $44.99-$69.99.
