Gamestop has revealed prices on their website.
... Yeah. And remember that there's no internal save memory at all, unlike the 3DS, and a card does NOT come with that $250 or $300 system, also unlike the 3DS (ie, the 3DS has internal save and comes with a 2GB SD card, if I remember right.). And of course Nintendo uses a normal format, not a custom one like the Vita, so there won't be cheaper options out there. Also some games require one to save, so it's not just for downloads; apparently Sony did not follow Nintendo's DS model in requiring all games to save to the game card itself, but are allowing companies to either save to the card, or use a memory card. The games that need a card won't even start without one apparently. But yeah, the prices is the new news here, and they're crazy as expected.
Oh, and given that single retail games can be 4GB... yeah, you'll need big memory cards if you want to download much!
Quote:4GB PlayStation Vita Memory Card - $29.99
8GB PlayStation Vita Memory Card - $44.99
16GB PlayStation Vita Memory Card - $69.99
