PS Vita 2000 Slim coming to Europe
PS Vita Slim - but will we get all the pretty colours?As expected Sony has officially announced the PS Vita 2000 for release in the UK, and it'll be out on February 7 for around £180.
Also released alongside the new version of the console will be a 10-game Indie Mega Pack that includes Thomas Was Alone, Floating Cloud God Saves the Pilgrims in HD, Velocity Ultra, Total Recoil, Alien Breed, Coconut Dodge Revitalised, Men's Room Mayhem, Limbo, Superfrog HD, and Hotline Miami.
Original story:
Website ShopTo has accidentally confirmed that the new slimline PS Vita will be available to pre-order in the UK from later today.
Although an official announcement is expected later this morning (we'll update this story when it happens) ShopTo seems to have already confirmed that the PS Vita-2000 will be released in the UK this year.
The PCH-2000 is a relatively minor upgrade to the existing version and is 20 per cent thinner and 15 per cent lighter than the original. It also has a new micro USB Type B port and 1GB of internal storage memory.
Most significantly the new version has an hour longer battery life, for a total of four to six hours. However, this comes at a significant cost, with the 2000 using an LCD display instead of the original OLED, which many don't consider worth the increase in battery life.
It was released in Japan last October in a range of six different colours (white, grey, yellow, pink, brown, and black), although whether all of those will make it to the UK we don't currently know.
Although it mentions pre-ordering today the ShopTo leak (an online flyer that has now been taken down) doesn't give a UK release date, but that presumably will be revealed by Sony later.
There's no indication yet that the PS Vita TV device will be released in Europe, although given it's been a flop in Japan that probably means it never will be.
