Amazing opening price, and a damn fine device. I think I may be sold.

Neither. A lot of people just overestimated the BOM on the devices without actually sourcing comparable parts.
Not made out of melted down gold bricks. Entry model probably has a BOM of about $200 and I'm willing to wait for iSuppli to do their breakdown for confirmation.
| wfz said: Huh weird, I expected to come in here and hear everyone complaining about the lame appearance the Vita made. My friend and I just both watched the conference and not a single game nor feature interested us. We were both actually sad to see how hollow Uncharted looked. You can't outsource a Naughty Dog game like that... Also, why does it feel like the Vita and the PS3 are getting a lot of the same games? I want my portable system to be unique... Because if it means getting the same game, I'd rather play it in greater glory/detail/resolution/comfort on the home console. That's my friend's and my take on the Vita. Why are you guys excited? I want to hear where your point of view is coming from. |
Playing games seamlessly on the go and on my PS3. The intuitive reloading tough screen of uncharted. The melee intuitive of uncharted. The ease of track building for modnation and LBP, just looking at teh LBP levels with touch screen is worth $249 IMO.
I respect if its not for you but to not understand why 95% of people are really excited about a $249 price tag with the product coming this year and what we saw, i have to question your intent, if im being frank.
249? Sold!
To bad its exclusive AT&T or id buy the 3G version
Sony better sell a shit load of software to make up for the price of the vita.
My 3ds friendcode: 5413-0232-9676 (G-cyber)
Everyone is forgetting that in order to beat the 3ds, the psv will need games, and the games shown at the sony conference looked mediocre at best imo. Unless LBP AND UC GA are launch titles, I do not expect it to fare any better than the 3ds.

This is amazing, considering this is what they priced the PSP go at lat year.
| Attoyou said: Now this "$599" shit can end. Well played Sony. |
Now it will just be "Sony will go out of Biznessss" on account of them being unable to sell the Vita at a $300 per unit loss.
BOM of about $200. Seriously. Wait for it.
Totally did not expect it to come in at $250... i expected a $299 base model / non 3G, and $349-$399 for a fully loaded 3G model.
3DS price drop to $199 by the fall CONFIRMED lol.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
That's an amazing price. I might be able to get one at launch now. Nintendo have to reduce the price of the 3DS by $100 if they want to carry on the DS dominance.
