WOW GREAT GREAT....$119.00 R U GUYS ON CRACK!? HOW ABOUT $49.99. NO IDIOT IS GOING 2 PAY OVER 130 FOR THAT.

See now I thought this was a pretty sweet product, I had no idea they were gonna put a price tag like that on it. What a stupid way to kill an otherwise excellent idea. I expected it to be overpriced for what it is, but 119 dollars is ridiculous.

seriously, $119? with quantity discounts up to 50 for $94...who the hell do you think your target market is? that often overlooked psp need in corporate america? whoever is in charge of your pricing schemes should be fired, they're gonna cost you a bunch of money.

think about your target market...teen to 30, these are not the group of people who historically have a lot of expendable income. the school of thought that says you jack the price up and sell less but make more overall is not going to be effective in this instance - it can never be when you're neglecting such a huge number from your potential customers. does it really cost so much to make these things or is your profit margin per unit just huge? if you've got the room on the books, drop the retail price and you'll see your sales significantly increase.

i like the $49 idea, its gonna be hard for most to rationalize much more especially since psp games are designed for small screens so stretching them across a big one won't look that great anyways.

good products are only as profitable as the marketing behind them, don't screw it up

if you wanted to play a handheld ps2 on big screen then buy a PS2 lol? makes sense

They have polished this product up quite well and I'm happy to see what they have done with it. I was looking forward to snatching one if it was $60 or less, but it looks like I'm going to have to wait a while to get my hands on either a used one or wait until the price goes down.

Not bashing the price or the product, I just don't have that kind of money towards such an investment. I still love what they have done.

Agreed

I thoguht this was a really kick ass product till that 119 dollar price tag droped like the bomb on hiroshima. Drop the price and I might think about it. Around the time I get a DS and give up on my PSP

[Plude220]

Only the $RICH$ or STUPID will buy this at $119.00 thats allmost half the price of the Friggen PSP!!!! Hell it probaly only cost the $10 or $20 to make the thing at $119.00 thats highway robery.. I like the $49.99 Idea.

[oldsage]

Hmm, destroy the warranty on my $250 1.5 psp just so i can play it on a TV...
Oh yeah, and now i have to pay half what it cost me to buy the thing just for a glorified adapter?!
Oh wait, but there's S-Video...

[xuphorz]

120$?
that's freaking expensive for what it does, but still i'll probly get one
