Sony Lowering the Vita Price February 28th in Japan

So it looks like the Vita is finally lowering its price, at least in Japan.  Sony announced this morning, via an online broadcast, that starting February 28th both the 3G/Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi only models of the Vita are going to cost ¥19,980 (~$215).  The original prices for the systems were ¥29,980 for the 3G/Wi-Fi model and ¥24,980 for the Wi-Fi only model.

We know sales of the Vita have been sluggish.  Maybe this is all they need in Japan to get the system selling.  There’s no word yet of a price drop outside of Japan, but if it’s going to happen we may hear something about it during Sony’s PlayStation 4 announcement on Wednesday.  This is certainly lining up to be a huge week for Sony!
