They already did it. The Vita is a high end super console, that launched last, and has poor support.

the PS3 was a high end super console, that launched last and HAD poor support. remember that? look at the support PS3 gets now. just give the vita time. i know 3DS fans are dying to bash vita but atleast give it this holiday and if things dont improve, you have sony's blessing to bash the vita all day long!

First, why do we need Sony's blessing to do anything? There's actually a pattern of Sony lanuching overpriced and overpowered tech going back to even before the PS3, and its not just limited to PS division. Don't act Sony fans don't bash the 3ds either.

Which Sony console was overpriced?? Can't think of any single one. They always sell consoles at a loss. You must have mistaken Sony for Nintendo.
|
Less see, the PS3 was at 600 dollars, the Vita was at 250 dollars, and much of the Sony tvs are overpriced. I think you have exposed yourself as a Nintendo hater with blinders on, your the first person to claim Nintendo overprice their consoles when they sell them below the other two lol.

Hahaha. If anything, you have exposed yourself as a Sony hater and an alergic Nintendo fanboy. Also you have a funny definition of overpriced. These consoles weren't overpriced but underpriced. The PS3 has been very expensive, but it hasn't been overpriced. It was impossible at that time to deliver that quality cheaper. Also in my opinion Vita is worth the current price. Remember that Nintendo released the 3DS, which is inferior by a whole generation, for the same price! Nintendo sells hardware at a profit (Wii U being the only exception, though not for long since it's just a couple of bucks behind), which means the value is overpriced, just like with Apple products. Scoobes explains it nicely.
If Aston Martin started selling their new Zagato for $100k it would still be very expensive and most people wouldn't be able to afford it, but it wouldn't be overpriced! Good, cutting edge things are expensive, that's the world we live in.

From Sony's perspective you are right. They had to sell the PS3 under it's value to even reach a price of $599. But that is not the definition that counts for the customers. As a customer you had the choice between a $250 console, a $299/$399 console and a $499/$599 console, so in the eyes of the AVERAGE consumer (not talking about dedicated gamers and tech geeks) the PS3 WAS overpriced.
