PS Vita: The end of Sony handheld gaming?
Sony has officially ended production of its PS Vita games console. The PS Vita struggled against rival devices as well as a surge in the popularity of mobile gaming. "Now that the PS Vita has officially reached the end of its lifecycle, I think it's time to admit that Sony's handheld console was a bit of a misstep," says Nathan Spendelow, from the technology website Expert Reviews. Although the Vita rolled out with high-profile titles such as Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Assassin's Creed III: Liberation and LittleBigPlanet PS Vita, the beginning of the end came when Sony announced in 2015 that it would stop making its own games for the Vita - deciding to focus instead on titles for its PS4 console. While the PS Vita has been consigned to history, Sony is believed to be readying a new games console.
