In a move that is of little surprise to anyone who has the console in question, Sony has just announced that it will be ending production of the PS Vita in Japan, according to the official PlayStation Japan website.
The pages for the PCH-2000 ZA11 (PS Vita Black) and PCH-2000 ZA23 (PS Vita Aqua Blue) SKUs, which incidentally were the only two remaining models of the handheld being produced, now read “shipments ended.”
For reference, the PS Vita first launched in Japan in December 2011.
