Sony Can’t Keep up with Demand for the Vita in North America
Posted on the 02 July 2014 by Sameo452005 @iSamKuliiIn a bit of surprising news, the Vita is in such high demand at the moment that Sony’s having trouble keeping enough stock on hand.
The Vita is notable absent from store shelves and online sellers in North America, according to Polygon – especially the Borderlands 2 bundle, which only released in May.
A Sony spokesperson said the problem is increased demand, not diminished supply.
“We’re seeing healthy consumer demand for PS Vita globally, particularly in markets like Japan,” the representative said.
“The U.S. launch of the slimmer and lighter PS Vita has generated strong interest among gamers, and we’re working to replenish supply here to ensure continued momentum leading into the holidays.”
