PS4 and it's accessories to experience price hike in Canada

4.3
Sony Computer Entertainment Canada has confirmed a price increase for the PlayStation 4, DualShock 4, PS Camera, and titles including inFamous: Second Son and MLB 14 The Show. While speaking with Sony Canada the Toronto Sun they went on to comment that the PS4 console itself would go up $50 starting on March 15th, the DualShock 4s and PS Camera will increase by $5, and many PS4 games will increase to $69.99 or a extra $10. This move is most likely related to the obvious lack of available PS4 units for sale within Canada, Microsoft reached out to comment that they did not plan to increase the Xbox One's base price.

I can't believe the PS4 is in that high of a demand.

darkiedarkk they are doing this BECAUSE THE ECONOMY IS GETTING BETTER!! or what not..


It is actually because the Canadian dollar has gone down in value, which means the economy is getting worse. Please don't make comments on things you know nothing about.


I'm pretty sure everything would go up in price if the CAD was going down

They should just make more units instead of raising the price. Unfair.

DiamondsPosted:

that's stupid, just because they're is less units for sale in Canada that they raise the price... greedy companies are greedy!

Well I'm definitely not purchasing a PS4 anytime soon.

Well, this sucks for people in Canada. But since there is a lack of PS4's for sale in Canada, it's understandable.

TitanFall Ohhh no what happened to sony being the good guys?


People like you are terrible, i like to stay in the middle of the console war and watch it unravel, at the end of it its which one better suits you, and this still doesnt change the fact the xbone cant handle 1080p, but it does have better feature, as for the price hike, i can see that the unit production is obviously increasing, which is good for canadians but they will have to pay the price


The Xbox One can run at 1080p it is just waiting an update. Forza is already running at 1080p if I am correct also. It can perfectly handle it, its a next gen console not a cheap gaming PC.


Xbox One has quite a lot of games at 1080p, delusional fanboys.
