Nobody saying you can't buy a PS3 or Xbox, people are so annoying posting meaningless comments. Yes the price is more or less like a full console price, but so what? You can't carry the PS3 or Xbox around can you? For the spec, $250 is very good. It's impressive enough that even the 3DS is ashamed of the $250 price.
This sucks, I was hoping to get two Uncharted actions before Christmas, Drake's Deception and Golden Abyss. Well, I guess I'll have to settle the Vita version later then.
