Ewan is back after the adventures at South by Southwest, and it’s given him a chance to step back and look at everyone’s coverage of the PS Vita. Not just the main gaming sites, but the forums, message boards, comments, tweets, and Facebook updates.
And something rather worrying has popped up. While everyone is complaining about the price of the memory cards, has anyone stopped to think about why they are priced that high? It’s not just a case of Sony trying to make money, but to protect the investment everyone is making in the Vita.

Hey, i tried to listen to the podcast and download it, but couldn’t…
Can you fix it ?
It appears we messed up the download link, sorry Filipe!
Thanks, downloaded and listened.
It’s sad that Sony is taking a revenge agains the pirates on PSP and overpricing the Vita Memory Cards, they don’t need to do that to turn the business into a profit.
And another thing that bothers me is the price of digital downloads, they should be at least 30% lower than physical retail, as they don’t have to write flash memory, covers, manuals, pay distributors, retail stores, etc… Not only on Vita, but also PSN and Live full game downloads are also too much costly against physical media….
