Confirming a speculative story with Shacknews, Sony revealed that if you choose to purchase a digital download version of a PS Vita title, it will be cheaper than buying a physical copy of the same game.
This falls in line with how the release has gone in Japan. That region already includes discounts on downloaded games for the PS Vita.
Probably the best thing about all of this is the fact that retailers such as Best Buy will sell both physical copies of games and redeemable code that can be purchased. If Sony's promise holds true to Best Buy, prices will be roughly 10% cheaper on those redeemable codes.
A Sony representative has confirmed the discount. "I can confirm that there will be a discount on the downloadable PS Vita titles from PSN. Exact details have not yet been revealed, but be on the lookout for an announcement in the very near future."
