thekitchensink said: This may be true, but they are still losing money. It still costs them money to ship it, and the $250 is how much customers are charged--the store pays Sony less than that. Plus, if Nintendo's taking a loss at $170 on the 3DS, Sony are definitely taking one for the Vita. |
You can't really claim that with a 100% certainty though...sony have also said themselves that they do not plan on selling the vita at a loss. However the more latest comments suggests that they are selling it a loss but only slightly for the wifi model at least. I dont see them selling the 3g model at a loss though.
Also, as far as i know the 3DS has not been confirmed to be selling at loss, or has it?
