According to Sony, The PlayStation Vita will cost $249 for the Wi-Fi model and $299 for the 3G version. The device will launch late this year. That's a 2011 release date and a sub $300 price point... not too shabby, eh?

Considering the DS was stronger in the handheld market and the 3DS STILL couldn't really sell for $250, what makes Sony think they can sell the Vita for that much?

No way I was expecting it to be far more expensive. Based on the cost of other high power portable devices i was expecting like $900. I was worried it wouldn't sell because of that. I cant wait untill its hackable id love to use it for homebrew.

I bet they are gonna barely make any money off of it. The 3DS cost like $115 to make if I remember right so paying $300 seems like a rip off but I'm guessing the PSV costs about 200 dollars to make so it's not to bad.

I thought that too, DataRape. Which I'm not complaining about.

I was buying it if it was priced at 300 so the fact that it's 50 dollars cheaper for me is even better. Love it. Now all we have to wait for is those games!!!
