On November 13, Sony is releasing a new light pink/white version of PlayStation Vita for 18,890 yen in Japan. The front of the Vita is white and the back is pink, making for a somewhat strange reveal when Sony Japan and Asia's president, Atsushi Morita, introduced the system by showing only its backside.

No US details were provided during Sony's press conference.

Vita is such an anomaly. Sony talks about it twice a year, almost no one buys it but yet it has a big library of titles that sell like crazy.... relatively speaking. I never use mine but for some reason I love it. Sony must know voodoo... I like this color scheme.

In other game industry news, Iwata farted and Hirai overslept. Inafune created a groundbreaking title (that looks like a HD version of games he did 15 years ago) and Kojima got plastic surgery so he looks even more like an anorexic fox (you know, for his engine and all that...).

If you've been waiting to pick up a cheap Vita, wait 6 months. The pink will be on sale for 1/2 the price because stores will have stacks of unsold units because the market for pink systems is so small because girls never play games

I just ordered a Vita last week finally so I can remote play PS4 games and finally enjoy the really nice library of games out for it and coming out. I don't play handheld's a whole lot anymore but I dunno... there is just something about the Vita.

Nintendo - "Here's the New Nintendo 3DS." Sony - "Here's a light pink/white Playstation Vita."

So again…where are all the color options for North American fans? I wanted the Yellow vita, but we still only get black, while Japan gets the whole damn rainbow!!!!

My wife saw this and asked me if I could pick this one up for her. I told her it was releasing in Japan. Her response, "and..." Made my day.

So let's put the color on the side we never see? Makes sense.
