They said they were selling at a loss (which could be a couple cents to 100 bucks, but I'm guess its was only a small amount) before launch. Now though after all this time I'm pretty sure the margins have reversed and they are profitable on each console, even with a price cut.

Also I did not say $250 out of random, its not about cheaper = more sales alone, its about what you show you have against the competition. They look to have...

if it folded, I would consider it at that price, but its too big and cumbersome and hideous as it is for me to get.

Nah price cut was needed, it looks like inferior hardware with only 50 bucks cheaper than a PS4. I do think games are what will convince me to get one but they needed to get the price to the 250-275 range to really invite people to buy it.

I'm glad there is a price drop but for me its still too expensive. I wish they upped the internal HDD and had it at $250, that I would buy even with the limited games (that I would play) released so far.

I'm predicting the 22nd November. My reasoning? random guess, I think I have as much chance of being right as every other analyst or leak.

for 20 bucks more seems more than worth it.

I'm buying it, I think it looks pretty decent. Probably won't get it day one but eventually.

I'm slowly changing my mind on titanfall, but it does seem too much like cod for me. I do love mechs though and the vertical aspect is very welcome. Need to see more.

Still terrible reporting. They had Amazon numbers which were different and commented on the weird pricing, stating it was all official before the pricing was revealed. That was bad reporting off inaccurate price change.

Terrible reporting, this is all the online stores not the official pricing..

agreed, I bought my vita because of the PS+ games I had, it was just too tempting to not play. Never regretted it but they really need to lower the memory cards prices.

I hope they drop the price on the memory cards as well, that for me was the real keep back from the system taking off.

Choice and story, it did not hide what it was, but you are fully entitled to hate it, I know a couple persons who also didn't like it but for the most part its a well received game.

to you and me maybe but not to many people if its done right.

Firstly, nice avatar, almost got the platinum.

Secondly, its not about that, people expect every game that is announced to be the AAA high profile gamer's game title. This is just targeted at another part of the market and its a possible system seller.

its a game that caters for a certain (and very large) audience. No pretending its not blatantly copying Nintendogs but its a good idea for the vita.

wow, just wow...I really hope everything you said is parody because otherwise I feel very bad for you.

It was not a leading factor in the THQ bankruptcy it was a only a small part, but it still sold something like 1.5 million copies and while that may have been lower than the expected from THQ(which is ridiculous) its not really a small amount. Its like the 3.4 million Tomb Raider sales being below estimates for Square Enix.

That's a problem with the way they run the company and expend resources not on whether one game made them go bust or hurt their bottomline.
