Despite the weekend leak of virtually everything Sony had to say about its new machine, the official E3 unveiling of the PSPgo was still exciting – and now thoughts have turned to how much the machine will retail for in the UK.
Jack Tretton announced on stage that the PSPgo will retail for $250 in the US. The European price has since been set at €250.
Could that mean a 250 UK price tag is on the cards?
The current machine retails full price between 90 and 150, depending on the model and bundle. It’s unlikely Sony will match that for the PSPgo. Unlikely, too, is the chances of Sony’s UK price directly reflecting that seen overseas – the US price translates to 150.
A direct Euro conversion brings the PSPgo in at 215 – a more realistic figure. Will Sony round that off for the UK market?
