+ on avg 20% marketing and a bit going to manufacturing costs. Vita is a profitable device. Regardless of how bad it is selling right now, it is still positive revenue which would be negated by a price drop.
Sony tried giving gamers something for nothing with PSP and PS3 and it only hurt them, now I guess they are doing it the way the company needs. Don't blame'm.

I'm sure you've already had it explained to you why this is not indicative of each hardware unit selling at a loss, but the vita project as a whole. But whatever, cheap trolling is easy.
