Scads of Japanese Vita games discounted on North American PSN in celebration of Golden Week
|

Golden Week is a period of public holidays in Japan that kicks off with the (former) Emperor's Birthday on April 29 and ends with Children's Day on May 5.

Traditionally, this is a time for long vacations, family bonding, and - of course - marathon gaming sessions.

While we don't typically observe Golden Week in the west, Sony's hoping to jump start the celebrations with a massive sale on Japanese games on the PSN.

Our friends at Siliconera have the full list - which also includes a few PS3 games - but the real standouts here are the following:

Also, the Silver Award-winning Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc's on sale too for $35.99 - $32.39 for PS Plus, originally $39.99 - but it's only $5.00 or so off, so it's not really that tremendous of a deal.

The PSN sale kicks off on April 29, the start of Golden Week, and will run - fittingly - until May 5.
