Still overpriced, but a sale nonetheless. I bit on it, tired of having room for only one of my PS+ games.

Principate · Mar 4, 2013

What a bargain!

serplux · Mar 4, 2013

That's a deal? I got a 32 GB SD card for my 3DS for $20.

thekonamicode · Mar 4, 2013

I need a larger card than 32 gb!

Live Free or Die · Mar 4, 2013

That is an awesome price. If you need a bigger card buy it now people.

Vita memory cards aren't SD cards.

Skyzard · Mar 4, 2013

Don't bother with anything less guys, unless you want a spare for different regions...even then really (unless they never make it easier to switch!).

Same here, feel really sorry for all vita owners that are suckers to Sonys memory card scam :/

Woody Invincible · Mar 4, 2013

Oh yeah. I had forgotten why I hadn't picked up a Vita yet.

Bam. Almost picked up a Vita last week, then remembered that they kill you on the memory. Holding off, but at least there's a sale going.

ElectricKaibutsu · Mar 4, 2013

Wow, they must be made of autographed Babe Ruth baseball cards.

Yes, they are completely overpriced proprietary cards.

LiK · Mar 4, 2013

That's the usual lowest price they go for on Amazon. Not really a deal.

Vita memory cards aren't SD cards.

What's the difference, it's not like they're particularily faster.

Pai Pai Master · Mar 4, 2013

Should be at least 64GB for that price. I'd kill for a 128GB...

Four_Chamber · Mar 4, 2013

What a fantastic deal!

These things are still gigantic ripoffs. I'm shocked people are excited at this "deal"

Currygan · Mar 4, 2013

is that supposed to be a good price?

jesus. Never buying a Vita

Vexxan · Mar 4, 2013

Still a ridiculous price for that amount of storage.

So vita owners are sucker then huh? lol

OT I'll wait for a proper price drop from Sony (should be ~50%+) and 64+128GB cards. Until then I'll deal with the 4GB that came with it.

This.

I've been following them on amazon since i bought the thing on Black Friday, and that's just blatantly not true. The usual going price is around $89, and I've never seen it lower than $80.86 until today.

You could be right if you were looking at 3rd party sellers, but I only look at the options that offer prime shipping. Never seen it below $80 until today.

antitrop · Mar 4, 2013

The fact that this is supposed to somehow sound like an enticing deal makes me want to sell my Vita.

ShockingAlberto · Mar 4, 2013

I looked at the thread title and thought it must have been notable as a price increase.

ffdgh · Mar 4, 2013

....That's a deal? It would have been great if vita used SD cards too.

Call Me Maybe · Mar 4, 2013

This is a complete steal! Get it now, everyone!

Got my 32 GB Class 10 SD card for $22...

it's true. I've seen it for this price before. Maybe ya missed it.

Yeah paying $249 for vita and then $79-99 for a 32GB memory is way way to much if you want to buy games on the PSN store

grimshawish · Mar 4, 2013

SD Cards have been falling in price right? I remember the prices being ridiculous but this seems even more outrageous than previously.

Nibel · Mar 4, 2013

Fucking embarassing

Vita - the handheld for the 1% :lol

These aren't SD cards, they are proprietary cards only usable on Playstation Vita and only available from Sony.

statham · Mar 4, 2013

$50 pure profit.

GulAtiCa · Mar 4, 2013

Still expensive. Heck, the PS Store sale from several months ago was cheaper! They had them for $60...

I know but the price difference VS SD Cards seems larger.

Duxxy3 · Mar 4, 2013

Still way too much.

Yeah, over the past year Vita memory sticks haven't really dropped, but sd cards continue to drop in price.

SmokyDave · Mar 4, 2013

If you could pay for memory cards in feigned shock, I'd bang over this thread.

Yup. The memory is designed to keep filthy paupers from getting their malformed paws on the system.

Yup

Asimov · Mar 4, 2013

I need this.

And the price is right (well... in Vita's world). I hope it last until Thursday.

bunbun777 · Mar 4, 2013

Got mine for 60.00 from sony direct. But yea, expensive.

Wish I had gotten in on that deal.

Canis lupus · Mar 4, 2013

The prices are unacceptable and they need to bring out 64GB cards but the situation when I bought my psp was much worse, 125 for a 1GB memorystick lol.

OldJadedGamer · Mar 4, 2013

Memory cards really are the biggest Achilles heal to the Vita. Hopefully they don't do this silliness with the PS4.

Raoh · Mar 4, 2013

Still too much. I need to upgrade my 8GB card too.

daveo42 · Mar 4, 2013

TeethMummy said:

Same here. Still debating on getting the card now at $75 or waiting. 8GB just isn't enough anymore.

All storage is in the cloud and you need to rent it out.
Installs are mandatory.

One would think you'd be rich in that already.

Nah, blew all mine in Wii-U sales threads

see5harp · Mar 4, 2013

Waiting on a 64 gig option and a price drop per gig. It's pretty absurd that you can buy a lightning fast SSD for less money per gig.

No you are right, they are slower than high speed SD cards...
