It that was a smartphone how much would it be? I am thinking retail without any contract probably $500 so what will that translate to in street prices with Sony selling at a lose $300? Ignoring the place holder price the true price sounds like it could be scary as well.


500 dollars doesn't buy you a phone anywhere close to specs of this thing.  But who knows what Xpria costs to make... My guess too is that they will have the cost at around 500 dollars for the NGP. $349 price ok with everyone?

With these specs, actually, yeah... I payed more for the PS3...

And yet, I'm not buying at launch unless it has a Persona or FF mainline game.

I think it will be priced $400-$500. While being very expensive, I think in the long run it will be a good ROI for Sony. Read MY THREAD to see why.

True, however, this isn't releasing now. It's planned to release in 10months when some of these costs will have already decreased, especially the CPU/GPU which will be being utilized by tablets by then as well.

No problem for me, I already work three jobs.

You'll need four jobs like me to afford the $200 games as well.



Above: still the best game of the year.

You clearly approched this thread with the wrong attitude...

Where I live the actual price is pretty often very near the estimated price before launch



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

I just checked VG247 and found this : "Yoshida on PSP2 pricing: “It’s not going to be $599″"
