Sony Confirms Vita Price Cut In 2013

By Keri Honea

In an interview with Eurogamer, Sony's UK managing director, Fergal Gara, has confirmed that Sony will be cutting the price of the PlayStation Vita in 2013. "We always aim to establish price cuts. So the question is not so much if, but when," Gara said.

So yes, when is that when? Well, they don't know yet. Gara said that the timing for the price cut is "still under discussion."

Sony already said that there would not be a price cut in 2012, but they plan to try to boost sales with software/system bundles. The Assassin's Creed Liberation and Call of Duty bundles may move units in the US, but it probably won't be as many as they hope.

If you haven't bought a Vita yet, will a bundle push you over the edge, or are you going to wait for the price cut in 2013?
