PlayStation Vita not Getting Price Drop in the US

Sony announced it would be dropping the price of the PlayStation Vita from 24,980 yen to 19,980 yen in Japan starting Feb. 28 , which hints a price drop might come in the US. But the Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida says that a price drop in the US isn't coming. Yoshida says this is due to economics, and the current exchange rate is the reason the price drop was in Japan exclusively. It's been an issue with Sony and also hurt Nintendo in the past. But it's still likely that there will be a price drop after it's on the market for a while.
