PS Vita will not launch in the west until 2012

DeadLocked · Aug 4, 2011

I'm glad, it gives me more time to plan how I'm going to spend £200 of my own money without anyone noticing, get the console into my house and then subtly play it without anyone knowing.

It's sorta a good thing for me seeing as I just bought a 3DS and have a bunch of psp games to finish. Also there are a lot of good console games coming out this fall that I don't know how I'm going to afford either. It is probably better this way because people are gonna be spread thin this holiday season with all the blockbuster titles coming out. It will give them some time to recover.

Kinda a shame as I wanted this to be a Chirstmas gift but I guess it'll gave me more time to save up for it.

I'm guessing some of their launch games were going to be delayed for the US and they decided to launch later to incorporate them. Seems reasonable.

well done sony, what a great way to backstab your EU fans.... again and again and again and again, keep doing it sony and you will get a medal of honour for being the most hated games company in europe.

while they delay the ps vita till 2012 i will be enjoying my 3ds and giving my money to NINTENDO who deserve my money way more than sony does.

that's not even accurate, the wiki hasn't taken this news into account yet, north america isn't getting it until 2012 just like europe

If the news was announced today (August 4th) then there's been no notable updates on the Wikipedia page related to that, meaning they haven't updated it accordingly.

All sources say it is a Europe/US 2012 release. Don't think otherwise, people.

regardless of when it comes out, sony still wont be getting my money anymore, they have proven to be very undeserving.

cwstjdenobs · Aug 4, 2011

I'm still expecting it summer 2012. Didn't know Japan was getting it this year, I'm surprised at that.

What a shame. Still, it'll give me more time to save up for the 3G version.

Hop2089 · Aug 4, 2011

Oh well I'll be waiting to get it anyway if there aren't any good 3rd party games available at launch.

heartgold · Aug 4, 2011

I can only think one use of it, portable movie player on that lovely screen. I haven't really been interested in the PSP games except one or two. If Vita produces games I like that'll be a bonus. But o my.... that screen is beautiful.

I'd have to get the 3G version, youtube on the go.

Too bad about the delay.

AndroidDem0man · Aug 4, 2011

Honestly, I'm buying this no doubt lol. Even if it is gonna miss holiday season,

Maz7006 · Aug 4, 2011

Better not they rush it

That's something I don't understand, why pay out for 3G when you will still have to find a WiFi connection to play games online? And if you have to use WiFi to game online why not just use that faster, cheaper option to dl content?

rufus83 · Aug 4, 2011

Sweet. Just in time for tax returns. Now I won't have to envy everyone else who has one for a few months before me.

Internet on the go? With 3G you aren't tethered to a hotspot.

I thought it was going to be december!!!

Maedhros · Aug 4, 2011

Better release it with a solid line-up than with a shitty one (looking at you 3DS). But yeah, missing holydays in Europe and Americas is bad, good for Nintendo.

But I still don't see that big of issue here... seriously, they always said that the Vita would be releasing in at least one territory this year, is it a surprise? No. They were affected by the tsunami/earthquake a lot.
