http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2011/10/vitacard1021.jpg (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/12/22/official-vita-memory-card-pricing-is-slightly-better-than-expect/)Last month, GameStop posted pre-order listings (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/11/28/gamestop-lists-vita-memory-card-prices-start-saving-up-now/) for Vita memory cards, with dire, dire prices -- from $30 for a 4GB card to $120 for the 32GB card. In its launch lineup announcement, the PlayStation Blog (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/12/22/playstation-vita-launch-lineup-and-details/) revealed the "official" pricing for the unimaginably tiny accessories, and it's ... better.
Still pretty expensive.
According to Sony, the 4GB card will retail for $19.99, 8GB for $29.99, 16GB for $59.99, and the 32GB for $99.99. In addition, you'll be able to get a 4GB card along with a "Pocket Pouch," screen cover, card case, headphones, and cleaning cloth in a $40 "Starter Kit." GameStop still has yet to update its listings, but we're sure it will soon. If it doesn't, you should really look elsewhere.
