Pre-order Vita bundle from Buy.com and get $35 gift card

We're not going to lie, anybody looking to drop some bills on the PlayStation Vita is going to put a serious dent in their wallet. That being said, even if you've gotta be on the cutting edge of portable entertainment day one, there's no reason you can't shop around for the best deal, with Buy.com's own Vita package setting a standard for savings.

Not only will gamers who pre-order the 3G bundle get it a week in advance of the general public (along with the bundle's 4GB memory stick and Little Deviants), but Buy.com is also offering free shipping to those who order in advance. But the icing on the cake is that though who take the time to sign up for the Rakuten Super Points service will earn 350 points, essentially $35 towards anything found on Buy.com.

$350 is still a lot of money, and we wonder if the 3G Vita will be a big seller knowing how the 3DS struggled at its original $250 price point. However, if you're deadset on owning a Vita, definitely keep an eye on this deal.
