The pricing is outragous. All around they say it may be a doomed sales because they rasied the price by so much. And dont forget you have to buy an extrnal memory card and even the smallest one (4GB) is pricy…then if you have an UMD game you have to pay double the price for something you already bought (also various the amout of games you got, the more the less more you'll have that day…) AND after that if your expecting to buy games for it ad another 40-60$ to that….thats almost a whopping 380$ (if your getting the wifi-vita model) you have to pay and about 420$ 9for the wifi-3G model) your going to pay. This is beyond crazy with the pricing, it's an no wounder the survey said that about 54% of japanese gamers dose not even expect to buy it.(because sony's capital gain is most in their own country). Because of this lots of people are turning to microsoft and nintendo (altho this is good if most people go to nintento because of there capital loss). I think that people would go to microsoft but then again there are more casual gamers than hardcore..(plus free wifi).
Sounds reasonable in price. Quit crying
