So, it seems that we were wrong. When the Vita Memory Stick prices were announced a few weeks back, it seems that they weren't the actual prices. Gamestop were the ones that "guessed" about the prices, based on the prices in Japan. Of course, things usually cost more in Japan then the do here and it seems that Gamestop was a bit off. The real prices are:
•4GB - $19.99
•8GB - $29.99
•16GB - $59.99
•32GB - $99.99
These prices are still a bit high but much more reasonable than before. I take back some of what I said about Sony, mostly the part about them overcharging by a lot, but they are still a bit at fault. It would have been easy to simply use SD cards instead of a proprietary storage method. The argument of piracy, a very high concern with the PSP, is a valid one. I don't blame Sony for releasing these sticks and the prices are at a level that I am happy with.
