Playstation Vita Not Coming This Year – Except In Japan

Tuesday, June 7th, 2011

Sony dude Jack Tretton was on Gametrailers live E3 coverage just now, and when asked if this year meant fiscal year ending in March 2012, or this year ending December 2011, Jack clarified that the PSVita will not be hitting America or Europe until 2012, but should be coming out in Japan by the end of 2011.

This leaves Nintendo in the clear for this year with the 3DS, Nintendo does great every Christmas, and this year they will have zero competition on the portable front.

Playstation Vita $249.00 for Wifi $299.00 for 3G

Monday, June 6th, 2011

According to Joystiq the PSVita will be $249 for the Wifi only version, and $299 for the 3G model, and Eurogamer is saying 250 euros for those guys too.

Looks like Sony is looking to put 3DS in a corner here, though Nintendo has plenty of room to move on price, I wonder what kind of loss Sony is taking per PS Vita at that price.

This holiday will be interesting for the handheld war with Mario 3DS coming out, and we’ll see what 3DS price is by the end of the year.
