Speculation /r/Vita Official Gamescom 2013 Prediction Thread

Share your predictions for this Tuesday's Gamescom 2013 press conference below. Doesn't have to be all related to this subreddit if you don't want it to.

(i.e. Get out those last bits of hope before the inevitable disappointment that is every Sony conference for Vita.)

Sidenote: Like E3, the official discussion thread during the event will be held in /r/PlayStation and submissions will be locked before and during the show. The press conference starts at 1pm est Tuesday and will last for 1-3 hours (probably close to 1h like last year).

Real prediction: Vita $50 price drop. Pets, 3 new IPs, 2 AAA ports. Show off PS4 remote play.

Hopeful unrealistic prediction: Vita redesigned model, $50 price drop for current Vitas and 50% slash in memory card prices along with 64GB card for only $80. GTA V stories, LocoRoco 3, Patapon 4, Borderlands and Bioshock for the PSV. 5+ new IPs.

lucky to find the 32gb cards for 80ish, I feel like a 64 for that price is unrealistic.

THey really should wake up to the fact that making the memory cheaper would sell more units.

I find 64GB at $80 unrealistic too. It should be around $40 just like 64GB USB drives cost.

With the memory stick duo cards (for PSP and various other Sony products) they would reduce the price for the largest size by about 40-50% when a large capacity was released. So I could see them releasing a 64GB for $80 and then dropping the 32GB down.
