It's a Vita that can't play the best Vita games and is only $50 cheaper then a PS3 or Vita for the entry level consumer. What IS the potential exactly?
And have you ever actually used a cloud service before?
I am getting this mostly because it's pretty much a cheap media box that will be able to stream PS4 game play at some point in the future. But the problem is this thing isn't being marketed as a PS4 peripheral/playstation media center. It's being marketed as a Vita, which is a massive mistake.

It's $100 cheaper. If you have a PS3 already then you have a DS3. If you don't have one you can buy DS3 for cheap. You don't have to buy the $150 pack which includes a DS3 and a 8 GB memory card.

I said entry level consumer. As in, the consumer that doesn't already have a PS3. So no, it's $50, and there's no point in it for people who don't already own a PS3. And the price for a used DS3 at GameStop is $48, so that isn't exactly "cheap".
For people who DO already own a PS3, there also isn't much of a point right now, due to the aforementioned compatibility issue. Most compatible Vita games already have superior versions on the PS3, leaving only a few exclusives. There is a point for PS4 owners, but it has little to do with this thing's ability to play Vita games.
