oh man this is so going to affect me.

I read this and went "I don't give a shit".

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.

Was this really necessary!?

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.

Sony forgot to copy good sales.

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.

Spoiler

that is where gaming will end up sadly.

They did it, and did it well with PSX and PS2

Sony does everything to make people NOT want to buy their system.
