Its not about being stupid, people know that prices change over time. Same thing happens with all tech products. I have bought almost every games console since the SNES at launch simply because I love playing games and want to be one of the first to get the newest system.

For people that buy them the price doesn't factpr into their purchases. I bought my 3DS a few months after launch at the full price about 2 months before it dropped. Didn't bother me that it did, as Nintendo supported all their customers paying full price with a large number of free game downloads.

My PS3 cost me £425, I was happy to pay that due to it being a brand new system and a Blu Ray player.

I've played on a Vita and its really a nice machine but will not be buying as I have a 3DS and an iPad for most of my handheld gaming needs along with my GS2 phone for the occasional play.
