Sony 'very encouraged' by Western response to Vita TV

4.6
Sony is "very encouraged" by the Western response to its Vita TV, the device that will be capable of playing Vita games and streaming PS4 games, Sony Computer Entertainment CEO Andrew House told Eurogamer on Friday. The Vita TV is currently only planned for release in Japan on November 14, with later releases reaching China and South Korea.

House explained that Sony is launching the Vita TV in Japan first because "there is no existing competitor in the region for the device, whereas streaming media boxes in the West are more commonplace."

In a separate interview, Sony Japan executive Masayasu Ito noted that the company would have to "watch the environment and identify what other services are available" before they decide to launch the Vita TV in the US or Europe. Until Sony makes their decision, you can take the pre-emptive route and see which Vita games are planned to be supported by the Vita TV.

PawnStars I wonder how well it will do in japan while they have to wait for the ps4


I wonder if it will be their alternative until it comes out. I mean a new gen of gaming technology would keep me occupied.

Any good reaction from fans should encourage a company. I plan on getting the Vita TV myself.

Mentalist I might even get a Vita, I've been hearing alot of good about it.


I have a vita and haven't even touched it since I got it. Their is almost no point in getting one.


I beg to differ, I now have a PS Vita and I think it is fun tbh, personal preference at the end of the day.


I think I'll get one around Christmas, saving my money for the PS4 first.
