3G PS Vita price cut in most Sony stores

4.3
The 3G PS Vita has gotten a price cut in most of the Sony stores across the United States. Sony has had problems getting the Vita to sell at anywhere near the numbers they had hoped for, and it appears they have now given the go ahead to cut prices of the Vita that has 3G capabilities.

The price drop seems to be in direct contradiction to what Sony had said last month when they dropped the price of the Vita in Japan. At that time, all of the company’s handheld gaming devices got a $50 price drop in Japan only. Sony followed that move up by announcing that there would be no similar move in the United States.

Some store employees have said that the Vitas with 3G capabilities are being discontinued and that Sony stores are trying to get rid of their inventory in response. Other employees have said that the sale is temporary, and will be ending soon.

I haven't used a handheld gaming only device in such a long time. I know someone that has one and it's pretty fun to use but a little confusing. Price cuts help thing sell. Too bad they are only cutting prices in Japan though

I guess that 3G connection isn't so popular with the Vita.
