VIDEO GAMES: How long does the Vita battery last?

3-5 hours. Yup, that's all the news here. 4 hours if watching video and 9 hours if listening to music. Honestly I don't really think this is a problem. The 3DS battery lasts about the same amount of time and I've found that to be fine. I mean really how often do you find yourself playing the thing for over 3 straight hours without coming into contact with an outlet, car charger, or something to juice up the battery. And if you are playing it for more than 3 hours in a sitting...jeeze rest your eyes. People will be mad though so yea.
