Current screen size is already perfect. Don't really see any point in making it bigger and lowering PPI
I see it in 2 possible directions.
1. They are betting big on the whole companion item to the PS4 thing they have been trying to preach lately
or
2. Costs have dropped enough that instead of doing a price cut and losing extra revenue they throw in a few cheap upgrades that wont hurt profitability and throw out the new model to retain pricepoint and kill off other model as it would drag down costs
Yeah, it does.
I wonder when this would launch. This holiday is all PS4. They're not let their edge over MS slip of they can help, and splitting efforts to sell Vita would do that. No point in making a half-assed effort, so they may as well just wait until 2014.
At last
I'm pretty sure Gaf insiders said the price is dropping at gamescomIt's probably their way of getting around an official price drop across the board.
Sounds like a combination of both, honestly.
It's a way to explore the PS4 controller avenue while still retaining profit margins.
You know, perhaps that October 21st rumour of the unnamed console is actually a redesigned Vita. A month before the PS4.
The fact that they got the resolution wrong kinda makes me doubt this rumor as being legit.

Yeah sure why not.But will it have a third stick?

Oh, and I thought you were saying that they would have no sub 200$ model.Yeah...drop the price on the original model, then introduce a new, fancy model shortly after with the old price.
This would be huge, Xperia Z 5" vs Xperia Z Ultra 6.3":
No, I think that's definitely the console. Because of what Verendus said, but also because for Sony, it needs to be. The games division has to be all about the PS4 this fall to ensure a strong start. They've said all the right things since February . It's time to put up or shut up.
I could easily see them marketing 2 models. The on the go 5" screened Vita and the PS4 Companion Vita with the 6.3"
:lolMeh, as long as Sony compensates early adapters, I'm game.

It's not like a new Vita is groundshattering stuff (sorry Vita owners/enthusiasts) that would grab much attention from the PS4 launch.

That's ridiculous.
That's my point though. Why bother? Why take people/manpower away from the PS4 launch? They in all likelihood won't do that.
I don't get the extra ram part. Right now you can run Music Unlimited, Skype, Twitter or the web browser without closing out a game. What other apps do they even want to run at the same time that they can't currently?
And wouldn't the idea be to make it cheaper?
So to combat low sales, they're gonna introduce a new model, which will in all likelihood, increase the cost?
I think the Vita could use a price cut more than a redesign. Also Sony launching 2 new pieces of hardware in a year sounds kind of bogus to me.
