PS Vita’s North American and European Release Date Finally Revealed
Jealous of all the Japanese gamers who are pre-ordering their PlayStation Vitas? Don’t be, because Sony have finally announced the Western release date for the Vita since it was unveiled back in January. Jack Tretton, President & CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment made the announcement at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco, and luckily it looks like we won’t have to wait too long after Christmas.
On February 22nd, 2012, the PlayStation Vita will be available in the United States, Canada, Latin America, and Europe. The Vita will launch with an unprecedented line-up, and already has more than 100 games in development.
In the US, the Wi-Fi only Vita will cost $249, which you can pre-order on Amazon here, and the 3G one will cost $299, which you can pre-order here. UK gamers can pre-order the Wi-Fi here
The only people who might not be happy because of this news are the gamers who spent over $1000 to import a handheld this December.
Are you going to get it day one? Let us know in the comments below.

I remember seeing shots from GDC or something where there were like multiple colors of the PS Vita. Red, Purple, Blue, I want one of those! Have they announced any SKU’s regarding those different colors?
Odd, the amazon page linked for psv preorders says release is march 31st 2011. Not doubting you guys, guess amazon hasn’t gotten word yet.
Yeah, they haven’t updated the date yet. This is straight from the horse’s mouth
i preordered mine with uncharted and for the game amazon has a December release date and for the Vita it has a March release date kind of confusing
I better start saving up my pennies right now.
………Hey!, I found another penny!
Here’s 2 more. *Gives dsslagl82 2 pennies*

I’m gonna wait until I get a break from school and Disgaea 3 comes out, becomes I’m a frugal college student~
Weird.. Amazon has an add saying Vita available 2.22.12, but when on the item, it still says march 31 LOL. Even when I crave a vita, not sure yet about the model, or if im gonna preorder. I got the money saved but not sure yet =/
