PS Vita is officially dead, as Sony stops making handheld consoles and focuses on PlayStation

Sony has killed off the PS Vita, the handheld gaming console that was unveiled nearly a decade ago. The small unit arrived in 2011 but the two final versions have been listed as cancelled on the Japanese version of Sony's website, signalling the death of the console. It is likely that the Vita will continued to be sold in stores for a short period, but production has now come to an end. There is still a PS Vita page on the US version of the PlayStation site, for instance, though it is not listed in the headline links at the top. We'll tell you what's true.
