The Sony PSP portable Game Console, also called the 'Walkman of the 21st century' might only cost between $199 and $249 instead of the former published $300-$400.

A EA representative said the games will cost around $40. In an article on CNN Money it also is said that Sony plans to initially ship 3 Mio. units.

All I can say is wow... I4U news and CNN are the new sources for this. If it did end up being $199 nobody would by a ds for $179.99.

Heck the price of games alone are looking similar. Average DS 35 (for a last generation game), or 40 for a this generation game.

I still think $249 will be the price, I've stated that from day one. If it's lower I'll be happy.
