As the yen keeps becoming strong so does the price. Its looking like $200 and $250.
According to the January issue of OPM, Sony announced a starting price of 19,800 yen or roughly $185. I don't know if things have changed since then.
I think it is up to $190 at the conversion rate now.
All in all I heard sony was making an annoucement on pricing tonight at around 5:15...probably PST.
Last I heard it was up around $185- $195. The Value pack will probaly be around $240 or so.
Ya thats what my ps magizine said, but some of my friends said that it was goin to be around 300$
originally it was only supposed to cost as much as a GBA SP.
I remember reading on IGN(or some other popular gaming site) that it would go from $200-$300.Quote:

Slashdot sez $200, possibly dropped to compete with the DS.
Whoever told you that is an idiot. Originally it was supposed to be $250+. When Sony announced the 19,800 yen(roughly $185) starting price, everyone was shocked. It was generally considered in that issue of OPM that Sony could actually be losing money this way, but it makes it very competitive with the less powerful Nintendo DS.Quote:

Whether it's going to be $20 or $5 under, we won't know until the launch. :pQuote:
While the price and exact date aren't entirely clear, the USD equivalent of the Japanese sale price is a little under $200USD.
