Default New PSN account for PSVita?

I was thinking about making a new account for easier PSN access.

Singapore's PSN pretty much sucks and the last time I checked, all the games were Chinese (Multiracial Singapore ftw) plus it is hard to get your hands on SGD PSN cards here in Germany.

Also since the PSVita will only be able to accomodate one PSN account, I probably won't be able to get games from the EU or US PSN with ease like on the PS3.

Questions:

1. Are there any other ways I can get my hands on EU or US PSN games without making a new account?

Can I for example download the game from my PS3 and transfer it to my PSVita?

2. Let's say I delete my account from my PSVita by reformatting and make a US one just to download a game, then delete my US account by reformatting to play that game on my original account.

Is that possible? Or are the games profile locked?

Thanks in advance guys!

I'm not sure, I know the meoery cards are expensive but I think the account is linked to the card and not the console itself. If you bought more than one card I think you could use multiple accounts.

You can transfer games (PSP, PS1 and Vita) from PS3 to your Vita although I doubt PS3 games would work.

Your trophies will work over the two systems if you use the same account so you may want to stick to the one account depending on how important trophies are to you.

I apologise for any inaccuracies in my answer this is based on my understanding of how the Vita will work. I haven't been able to try one out first hand yet.

Great thanks ! Though I think the account is saved on the system itself cause I just logged in to my account without the memory card inside the system.

Only after finishing setting up the system, did I put in the Memory card

^^ Exactly.

You won't be able to cross-profile PSN downloads with the one-account limitation on the Vita. If you want to import games, you'll have to settle for a physical copy or play it on that PSN region/account you downloaded from.
