A cheaper Vita would help the second biggest complaint...price of hardware and memory cards.  Whatever lowers the cost helps.
As for not liking handhelds, they should reverse the PS4 remote play ability, stream Vita games to the PS4/TV.  No compatibilty issues then either.


I really don't think price of hardware is a problem at this point given that you can find a Vita for cheaper than a 3DS these days.  They already knocked $50 off the price last year and it did absolutely bugger all to help sales.

I don't see the link to memory card prices either.  If they introduced a new Vita 2000 and immediately lowered the price, they'd be making about the same on it as they're making on the OLED model.  That's not really going to be much incentive for them to hack away at the MC prices either.

I agree with you that this announcement will be for Vita 2000 so they can be more strategic with pricing in future; and I even agree that VitaTV is a stupid idea.  But I still think it's the better thing to announce because if handled correctly, it can have a lot more impact than another handheld model can have.
