Rumor: PlayStation Vita To Release In January
Early indications suggest that the new Sony handheld won't make the holidays, but will arrive in time to usher in the New Year.
Yesterday we had a rumor that the Vita might be headed for a November 4th release. Today, Destructoid is reporting that several readers have been quoted an arrival date for their PlayStation Vita Amazon orders hovering around the first week of January. If accurate, the Vita may have a tentative release date of December 31st, 2011.
We don't have any corroborating evidence for now, plus it's worth noting that many outlets are in the habit of setting release dates even when they haven't been confirmed by the product maker. However, it wouldn't be the first time that a purchasing outlet let the cat out of the bag on a release date.
