Rumour: Sony's NGP to be priced at $250 for wi-fi model, $350 for 3G
Deal or no deal
According to Kotaku, Sony's forthcoming handheld may be priced at $250 for the wi-fi model and $350 for the 3G model.
The rumour stems from a survey sponsored by publisher Ubisoft and conducted by research firm Toluna.
The survey apparently states, “the retail price of the Sony NGP is expected to be around $350," and asks, "How likely would you be to purchase the Sony NGP now that you know this retail price?"
It goes on to reveal that a model without 3G connectivity will be priced lower, at $250.
As the survey is conducted by a third-party publisher and not Sony itself, these prices may be mere speculation. If correct, however, it places the NGP - the wi-fi model at least - around the same price as Nintendo's 3DS.
Will you be picking up an NGP at those prices?
