Where in my post did I say a price cut wouldn't help?

The whole of your post seemed to insist that bundles will do what Vita needs. They won't if the base price isn't small enough.

The price needs to be cut for people, a lot of people don't want to pay 250$ for a gaming console, and I don't blame them.

They paid $250 for the Wii, didn't they? What did Nintendo do? Release appealing games. That is what Sony need to do first. Cutting the price with no big games (almost) to speak of isn't going to do enough to be financially viable. People are not going to buy Vita just because it is cheap, they will buy it if it has games they want. That is what CoD and AC will help with.

I thought we all knew that Home Consoles were more expensive than Handhelds? 250 is "Cheap" for a Home Console while it's not for a HH.

The PSP sold at $250 and sold a lot better than the PSV in the same time scale.
