Are Sony actively TRYING to piss off their customers or something? If you don't want my money, Sony, then fine. Sure my 3DS could use some fresh blood instead.

Fact: They don't piss off their customers, they piss off everyone who isn't their customers.

OK, I rephrase, piss off POTENTIAL customers. I'll be damned if I'm buying a Vita with all this backwards-ass crap going on.

Why would they want to piss off possible new customers?

I'm like this but angrier and more self-entitled.

Because ruining the save data of some people's games thanks to an update won't piss off some of their customers.

If your make or break factor on buying a Vita is getting a card to locked to your account then you have some real issues with gaming.

What I still cant understand is why we have different prices in different regions for the same product. I see this on Steam, on eShop, on PSN... If the prices were the same, there would be no need to enhance region locks.

Gaming has changed. ID-tagged customers carry ID-tagged products, use ID-tagged accessories. Account-linked memory devices inside their PSP's restrict and regulate their save data.
