If they had that kind of headroom for a price drop, we should've seen it get one a while ago. They've been losing millions on the Vita as it is.

What sort of nosense is this? Sony has not been losing millions on the Vita. They never sold it at a loss. It's one of the reasons why it failed.

That "nonsense" comes directly from their most recent financial reports:

"The G&NS division's operating income increased to $228 million but was offset by a $93 million write-down of components for PS Vita and PlayStation TV. "This write-down was recorded because the latest forecast of PS TV unit sales does not reach our original forecast as a result of lower than expected unit sales in the current quarter," the document explains."
