No first-party titles in development for the PS Vita, says Sony

The odds are that you heard of the PS Vita and how it’s been tanking. Sony hasn’t invested into the device in quite some time and judging by comments made during an interview between Executive Vice President Masayasu Ito and 4Gamer.net, it seems that they won’t be returning either.

When Ito was asked about first party titles that are in development for the PS Vita, this is what he had to say:

“Currently, there are no first party titles that are in development for the PlayStation Vita,” says Ito. “Third party companies are working hard on the PlayStation Vita, so we here at SCE have strategized to focus on our new platform of PlayStation 4.”

The PS Vita launched back in 2011 and since then has only been given a handful of exclusive games. Ito even goes one step further saying that he "recognizes that it’s no longer on the level of high-end smartphones as of late, and honestly speaking, I'm sure if it’d be the best idea to simply change its architecture and remake the handheld device for now.”

As of now, we can probably say a Vita 3.0 is completely off the table. Ito states that Sony will be releasing new colors this fall, if you have yet to get one, perhaps a colored Vita could persuade you. Since nothing major is releasing on PS Vita anytime soon, you might find use in playing Fallout 4 remotely with it.
