the sure thing is that the main problem of the 3DS was the lack of system-sellers, sure price was a factor for some people but i believe games are more important

and since PSV has no megaton in Japan for the time being, it selling how it does, lowering the price would help but not as much as a MH or DQ game

the worst in the PSV case is that the kiss of life has not even been announced yet...

i'll stop it here because people called me a PSV hater last time i said my opinion   :  (

Of course lowering the price alone won't help, because it didn't solve all the 3DS's problems either. My point is that both, games and price cut, need to happen in order to turn things around. Not just one or the other.

For clarification, I wasn't saying that the PSP wasn't successful at all, I was saying that the PSP at a price above $200 wasn't. People at large aren't going to pay $250+ when they can get a home console for the same price or less. Maybe they would, if the 3DS and PSV were launched at the same time as the eighth generation home consoles, but that's still a big maybe.


It's common sense that portables and more expensive than non-portables.

For example, for $1000 you can get a high end laptop. For those same $1000 you can get a desktop PC that is MUCH better and will let you play the latest games for many more years than that laptop.
