I believe Sony would have been better success if they released a $150 "casual friendly" PSV (WiFi only) (I hate using these stupid "industry" terms...) and a $200 "hardcore system" for the serious gamers.  I think coming out with a 200 and 250 price tag (which that 250 is pretty much dropped) wasn't a good move.  However, they didn't know Nintendo would drop the price so damn quickly on the 3DS so they were aiming around a 200/250 price tag for awhile.  A 150 and 200 system would have been way better is all I am saying for consumer friendly prices.

I mean a system as strong as the ps360. In such a small device. 

Its easy to slash the price but its hard to make vita worth that much.

They should have never went for the all mighty power in the first place then if it was compromising a consumer friendly price.  The most powerful system has never won any gaming generation (hand held and home console, yes I consider the Neo Geo apart of the 16 bit gen).  The problem with Sony is that they are too cocky.  They are like Tim Allen on Tool Time lately... More Power More Power.  Their hardcore fan base in pursuit of the holy grail of graphics has caused the collapse and failure of their brand.  If anyone is to blame for the downfall of Sony is it their fanbase which lead Sony to being so damn cocky.  They won the PS1 and PS2 generations not with the most powerful machine.  Graphics aren't everything and sales always prove it.

Right, because had sony come out with a system similar to the 3ds then everyone slames em for copying ninty and nothing else.  Apparently Sony cant do anything right with anything they do.  They had to create a system that had more appeal on the hardware front in order to woo some nintendo portable fans into purchasing their system as well, making it more powerful and adding a few new features such as the back panel touch pad are just a few ways that Sony is trying to capture more market share.  It was already an uphill battle because nobody does portable gaming better than nintendo, but they can still offer something that is different enough and worthy of a purchase for portable gaming fans and hopefully bringing in more gamers who usually are not interested in portable gaming devices.  Im not saying that Sony cannot create software that exudes the amount of quality and expertise that Nintendo's first party offerings typically do, but they will probably never have the mass appeal and brand recognition that Nintendo does.  This was the only logical move, create something more powerful that can provide more spectacle to wow the casual gamers, while having the ability to offer deeper experiences with better graphical fidelity for more hardcore gamers such as myself.
