HMV slashes PSPgo priceDVDBack23 @ Nov 30, 2009 18:08 | 10 comments
The handheld started with an MSRP of GBP 224.99 but after one week HMV had already slashed the price to GBP 200 due to lack of demand.
Early on, Australian retailer EB Games decided to not stock the console, a sentiment shared by a few other retailers.
Don McCabe, managing director of the UK game chain Chips had the harshest words for the PSPgo handheld, saying he expects the console to "fail miserably" in the market. |

What is the point of making it smaller if I'm not going to remember to bring it with me? If they get cheaper than refurbished fats, I might give one a chance...but it is doubtful. |
