PSVita supports multiple PSN Accounts per system, but only if you have multiple memory cards.

Sure, as a customer getting into Sony handhelds for the first time I'd say that argument is justifiable.
As a customer who owns a ps3 and knows they went 6B into the hole padding it with features, I'd say it's not a big deal that I have to spend 30-50 dollars on a proprietary memory card.
Shit, mem cards on ps2 and ps1 used to be 35$ or so as well, and those were proprietary. I just don't see it as a big deal. Other people can feel free to do so.

Want to know why I like the PS3 and had no issues buying one? Because I knew I could just toss any 2.5 inch HDD in there, and I did. It's a WD black 500GB so I even have 5 years of warranty on it, which is longer than the PS3 warranty, on top of it being on sale and I got it super cheap. When you release a product, you want to make it attractive especially to your current product users, by doing shit like this where I have to buy 3 memory cards at a premium just so I can have different accounts where I won't be locked out of DLC content is fucking bull shit and I'm a very value oriented shopper. Shit like this is what MS would possibly do, and that's part of the reason why I sold my 360 because MS gaming division jacks the shit out of your wallet for no good reason other than to feed on sheeps. I don't know how Sony can convince me to buy a Vita atm when I have 3 active PSN accounts. I'm Asian, I understand other languages, shocker! It's just not good for people like me. At least I have the option of never buying one I guess.....

OK, I speak ENglish French and conversational japanese, so games help me learn.

I don't see what the big deal is. It's 250$ for a vita. That is retardedly cheap for what you're getting inside it.

You know they are selling these at a loss. The mem card is probably the only thing that keeps it profitable. I'd say that it takes a Vita, one proprietary game, and a mem card to break even. Have you seen the specs on it!?

You are forgetting one very very important thing, we are consumers, we shouldn't be the ones giving a rat's ass about if they are selling something at a loss, that's not our problem, there is no reason to defend them when I see 32GB cards for that price that's absolutely not future proof when SDXC cards are on the rise(fast as shit and go up to 2TB.) Oh, and I don't need to learn those languages(Eng, Chn, Jpn,) I know them pretty well by default, I'm an actual consumer of those regions. The PS3 model worked great and I gladly handed over my money, but if I'm not given the flexibility to do things easily at a good cost, all is naught for me, because trust me, Sony more than made their money back with me already with the PS3, if this shit is going to cost me a grand total of 400 USD after tax, fuck it, I'd rather pick up another 3DS for my brother at 170 with a 2GB card "included" so I can play Mario Kart 7 with him. It's all about what it looks to the mass consumer, the mass consumer will not take the side of Sony and say "hey, they are selling at a loss, so it's OK to over price that other thing that you are required to have." It's bullshit.

 

PS: It's worse for people like you and me who have to buy multiple memory cards.............
