UK retailer lists price points for Vita software, possible launch date

Although Sony has already announce the price points for the PlayStation Vita, launch prices for the handheld's games remain a mystery. UK retailer ShopTo, however, has offered its own estimation of how much they'll cost.

 

ShopTo's website currently lists over twenty titles for the PlayStation Portable's successor at a price of GB£ 39.99 each. These include Uncharted: Golden Abyss, RuinWipEout 2048, Super Stardust Delta, Resistance, Monster Hunter Portable, Killzone, Modnation Racers, BioShock and LittleBigPlanet.

 

Incidentally, the retailer also estimates that the handheld as well as its launch lineup will hit retail by November 4th.

 

Sony, meanwhile, has told UK gaming news site MCV that since official announcements have yet to be made the prices on ShopTo's website are "just speculation". This comment likely applies to the release date as well, since Sony has so far only said that the PlayStation Vita will launch by the end of the year.

Because I believe the first version will be the best build again, like the PSP. We'll see if there is any truth to that.

This is incorrect; the first PSP-1000s had a problem with 'square' button that was placed off-centre because of the LCD. The first batch of Japanese PSPs had a molding problem as well making this button sticky. That was fixed for US release but still the button (contact on the mainboard) was off-centre. This was only really fixed in the ceramic-white PSP 1000.

The square button "problem" was largely exaggerated. It was only an issue if you had your thumb on the left side of the button, which meant you weren't using the other 3 buttons.

I plan to place my pre-order as soon as my credit card arrives in the mail :P Instead of using the reloadable one I've been using.

Games are as pricey as always.

I won't be pre-ordering because the importing will probably be more costly than from the retail stores.
