Just for Gamer

Finally PlayStation Vita release date in US confirmed! In my previous article, I said if PlayStation Vita will be released in Europe and North America on March 2012 but based on the recently information, PlayStation Vita release date in US is February 22, 2012.


The good news is although PlayStation Vita release date is February 22, 2012 but you can pre-order PlayStation Vita now! So many people have been waiting for PlayStation Vita which previously codenamed "Next Generation Portable" (NGP). PlayStation Vita is the long-rumored successor to the PlayStation Portable hardware series. Projected for a holiday 2011 release, Vita retains the familiar general form of the PlayStation Portable hardware series while dramatically improving on virtually every aspect of its use with powerful and exciting new features including: dual touch pads at the front and rear, dual cameras at the front and rear, dual analog sticks, a 5-inch OLED screen, GPS, six-axis motion sensors and a three-axis electronic compass and exceptional built-in connectivity via Wi-Fi (PlayStation Vita WiFi Edition).* Taken together this makes for a handheld gaming device that truly signals the entry of handhelds into the world of Next-Gen gaming.

There are 2 editions of Playstation Vita:

• Multi-touch 5-inch organic light emitting display (OLED) as the front display
