Here's that PS Vita summer campaign video in English as a price cut looms

The mega bundle is No. 2 on Amazon's best-selling Vita chart, not a difficult achievement, but isn't in the top 100 on the video games best-sellers, suggesting its not grabbing that much attention, or the campaign hasn't kicked off yet? Has any seen the ad on TV?
