Sony has officially announced the release of its PSP successor, the PlayStation Vita, formerly known as the NGP.
The new handheld will be released at the end of 2011, priced at a distinctly reasonable (for Americans at least) $249/€249/¥24980 for the standard wifi model and $299/€299/¥29980 for the 3G/wifi model, which requires the usual exploitative data plan.
The launch titles:
PS Vita’s launch lineup is a force to be reckoned with, featuring exciting and attractive new titles from SCE Worldwide Studios, including UNCHARTED: Golden Abyss, LittleBigPlanet, and Ruin (working title), which utilize PS Vita’s groundbreaking technology to make unprecedented immersive, interactive and social game play available on-the-go.
In addition, titles such as Little Deviants, Hot Shots Golf, Reality Fighter, Hustle Kings, ModNation Racers, Wipeout, Super Stardust Delta and a broad range of third-party game developers and publishers make use of PS Vita’s unique feature set.
The wildly optimistic trailers and preview footage:
Sony further promises new ways of having personal information stolen whilst being stalked in public, by way of its “LiveArea” system:
Further enhancing your entertainment experience are new PS Vita features, such as “LiveArea,” an interactive space for each PS Vita software title that allows you to access the latest game information through PlayStation Network; “near,” a pre-installed application that lets you see what other PS Vita users in the vicinity are playing; “Party,” which lets you voice chat or text chat while playing games or using the Internet browser; and “Welcome Park,” a tutorial application designed specifically to guide you through PS Vita’s new user interface.
The future of the 3DS suddenly looks distinctly troubled…

PSVITA has a lot of the features the PFP has in TWGOK.
Maybe Sony's been jealous of Keima's handheld.
the only difference is that it's connected to PSN...
Keima: i can already see the ending...
I see what u did there x3
more like 3 days til its hacked then sony stops support for it
or they sue some guy then get hacked again, again...... again.
FINALLY we get what Keima has in masses at home,
though i doubt it will have that nifty email app...
inspiration from God Keima
It also allows hackers to steal your information and track your entire movements real-time!
hope it have a virtual reallity mode like the pfp...
PSPVita-tan....hehehehe....Is she gonna look like Vita-chan(Mahou Shoujo Nanoha)?
I was about to say that :)
what a stupid name psvita,,,,,PFP is better,,lol
It doesn't have the keypad
Can't wait for the loli mascot to show up!
Can't wait for a "Top 10 Reasons You Didn’t Buy The PSV" in Sankaku!!!
It's Coming!!!
Can't wait for a "Top 10 reasons you won´t buy a 3ds".
Some reasons:
3d sux.
3d hurts my eyes.
3d is a gimmick.
Battery is weak.
Don´t have original games,just ports.
Don´t have 3g(for countries without at&t)
There is already one. -.-
I believe most Australian telco's offer 3G services, you make it sound as if in America, AT&T is the only company with 3G service? Hell.. I don't even think AT&T is a name in Australia...
We already had that article, Anonymous.
wow!talk about speed!
Nickname will be Vi-tan.
it will be worth the wait, i am sure.
btw i love your avatar ;p
The funny thing is the price...It's the same as 3DS but the PSV is alot better in any aspect.
Thats maybe true but the (exclusive) games will ultimately decide their fates.
Well Lying is also a part of Strategy Sale after people line up then SURPRISE!
psv is great on paper, but i bet the only games it's gonna get are crappy ports from ps3... The reason why DS dominates so much atm is because the games for it are in majority completely different from what you play on PC/stationary consoles, not to mention that ds was working so much better as a handheld than psp (much stronger battery,able to play comfortably in a strong daylight)
3ds is great on paper, but i bet the only games it's gonna get are crappy ports from ps2,n64,ds,game cube and pc.
3d sux.
Anoncorrector.
Didn´t you see little big planet,little deviants and reality fighters?
I think we will have a bad surprise about psv,but not about casual gaming.
If graphics doesn´t matter go play NES.
I already play NES, thank you. The best things about this is that there's no loading time and you can start the game and play.
Today it's more like start the game, waste your time while the game loads, than waste your time some more reading boring instructions.
Most of the 3DS games are ports from the DS/DSi.
Bust a move, Class of Heroes, Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon, Legend of Zelda (not from DS but a remake), Mario Kart, Love Plus, Nintendogs, One Piece, Raving Rabbids, Ridge Racer, Samurai Warriors, Devil Survivor Overclocked, Super Mario, Tales of Abyss (PS2 remake with no changes), etc, etc. So many are remakes with no or little changes...
You`re just whining because there's no remake of FFVII.
lol which ones exactly?
No picture of Nanoha's hammer-wielding-loli-knight makes me sad...
NEED to agree..
Same here.
who is nanoha?
I'm just excited that vanillawares new title is gonna be on it :D. I think it was great knight history
Odin sphere sux.
Princess Crown was great.
*goes to play muramasa to visit my waifu momohime-chan*
muramasa was like one of the only games i actually looked forward to playing on the ds, but alas, my ability to misplace anything and everything never fails to impress me.
The "PSV" huh? Not that catchy.
But like most people, I'm getting it..
..when the price drops down a bit~
The graphics quality on previews were the real deal. It really is amazing.
PSV, a new Russian sniper rifle?
well the PSG (pspGo) already flopped, so they wanted to use another letter
Or PSV Eindhoven,A Dutch (Soccer)Football Team.
@xxxfl0od3rxxx
PSV is also a dutch football club and I must say, they're frickin' good. Hope there's a some sort of parallelism with PlayStation Vita...
if by good you mean bankrupt without support from the goverment. Then yes frickin' good.
your mom's bankrupt without support from the government.
PVP anyone?
should i laugh ?
PS "V".....
but it really is pretty affordable considering how loaded the functions are.
