PS4 and it's accessories to experience price hike in Canada

4.3
Sony Computer Entertainment Canada has confirmed a price increase for the PlayStation 4, DualShock 4, PS Camera, and titles including inFamous: Second Son and MLB 14 The Show. While speaking with Sony Canada the Toronto Sun they went on to comment that the PS4 console itself would go up $50 starting on March 15th, the DualShock 4s and PS Camera will increase by $5, and many PS4 games will increase to $69.99 or a extra $10. This move is most likely related to the obvious lack of available PS4 units for sale within Canada, Microsoft reached out to comment that they did not plan to increase the Xbox One's base price.

Oasis So apart from 'merica and most of Europe anyone that wants a PS4 for the same price can go f themselves?..

That's not very nice Sony.

The blame really cant be out on Sony, blame it on the countries government for creating such a weak currency.


Trust me I understand what you're saying but at the end of the day it's not only the customers that might get shafted be this but also the shops. Think about it, if the base unit price increases the shops pay more, but then if they want to stay competitive and make sales then they'll have to lower their prices, thus cutting into their own profits.

Buy it off ebay? I'm sure you can find one there for the relative price of one in stores or less all the while the console being undamaged.

(Microsoft) Yea we wont :P
(slaps Sony in the face!)


It will always be a war between the two. What we should all be saying is that we hope the Canadians prices don't go up for everything. Because that would suck..

darkiedarkk they are doing this BECAUSE THE ECONOMY IS GETTING BETTER!! or what not..


It is actually because the Canadian dollar has gone down in value, which means the economy is getting worse. Please don't make comments on things you know nothing about.


I'm pretty sure everything would go up in price if the CAD was going down


The CAD value did go down, compared to the USD value. That explains the "price hike" in Canada...... You didn't read the article at all, nor do you understand basic economics.
