He's probably right, but Basic models always have the stigma of being a "basic" model. No one wants an inferior product. A Deluxe model for $299 may actually sell much better than a Basic at the same price. But I agree that games are needed more than a price drop, especially with other next gen systems being $100-200 more expensive already.

However, the Vita's basic model outsells the deluxe model by a wide margin.
