Despite getting a UK launch on Wednesday October 26th at the Games Media Awards, which it is sponsoring, it appears that the PlayStation Vita (aka PSP2) won't be on sale on the UK until after Xmas.
A source 'closed to Sony' has let it be known that, "Sony know it's effectively gifting the festive handheld market to 3DS - but is still really confident of a success.
"The overall strategy is that they want the hardcore to buy first and then spread the word. It's a blow for us, but they think they can still do that in the UK without the Christmas sales boost."
As you might imagine, Sony has refused to comment on release dates.
