Before Kaz Hirai or any other Sony officials announced the actual price of the recently renamed PlayStation Vita, the company's PR wing tipped us off to the price and release date: PlayStation Vita will launch worldwide "by the end of 2011," and will arrive in two models starting at $249. SCE detailed the two separate PSV models as a 3G/Wi-Fi version running $299/€299/¥29,980, and a Wi-Fi-only model for $249/ €249/¥24,980.
In that retailer survey from Japan the #1 reason people had for not buying a 3DS was price. It had a decent smaple size too -- like 1,500 to 1,700 people.
Yeah, Nintendo's a bit fucked on this one. Not sure if they'll bite the bullet and drop the price so soon.
I will welcome a price drop. i have no intention of getting a Vita, but would love a 3DS.
Why would those of you who don't play hand-helds now be interested in either?

Cause I have money.
There's a huge orgy going on backstage. Kaz was wearing them out.
