Nee, serieus. Er is nog niets over gezegd. Ik gok dat het toch wel een uur of 6-8 mee zal gaan. Op de een of andere manier heb ik meer vertrouwen in PSVita dan in 3DS qua batterij. Dat PSP niet veel meeging was vooral omdat die UMD draait en dat sowieso meer batterijvermogen kost.

Mwah, de PSP Go heeft ook geen UMD drive en een kleiner scherm maar die accu gaat ook niet zo heel erg lang mee.

Sega building 'unique' Vita game at new studio

Publisher opens its third UK games developer.

Sega has today opened its third UK studio, formed from key staff that headed up the now-defunct Sega Racing Studio.

The new group is formed of six talented staff that, in 2008, were given the chance to remain at Sega when the racing studio was shut and sold off.

The Solihull studio is currently building a PS Vita game set for release in 2012, Sega West production boss Gary Dunn has said.

"It’s going to be a PS Vita game that absolutely uses many features of the hardware to the max, and gives you some truly innovative gaming opportunities not seen before," he explained in a new interview with Develop.

"I personally wouldn’t want to put this project under a genre of any kind."

Sony portable not ready by Christmas in US, Europe
TOKYO (AP) - Sony's next-generation portable game machine, the PlayStation Vita, won't be going on sale in the U.S. or Europe in time for Christmas — a key sales time for game-console makers.

Expectations had been high the machine would be ready worldwide for the year-end holiday shopping season. Sony earlier promised a "phased global rollout" starting late this year. Sony Corp. Executive Vice President Kazuo Hirai said Thursday the PlayStation Vita will go on sale by the end of the year in Japan, and early next year in the U.S. and Europe.

Hirai did not characterize the timing as a delay, but said Sony wants to be prepared with solid game software offerings timed with the hardware launches. He did not give specific dates, meaning that it was still unclear whether the gadget — a touch-interface and motion-sensitive handheld that outdoes Sony's PlayStation Portable — would be ready for Christmas even in Japan.

He was far more clear in flatly denying that any price cut for the PlayStation Vita was in the works, brushing off a decision by rival Nintendo Co. last week to slash the price of its 3DS, less than a half year after it went on sale — stunningly quick in the industry.

"We packed so much into the device and made it very affordable," Hirai told reporters at Sony's Tokyo headquarters. "There is no need to lower the price just because somebody else that happens to be in the video game business decided that they were going to lower their price."

The PlayStation Vita will cost $249 in the U.S., and 24,980 yen in Japan for its Wi-Fi-only version, and $299 in the U.S., and 29,980 yen in Japan for the version that will also have a cell phone service. Under its latest price cut, the 3DS will cost 15,000 yen in Japan starting Aug. 11, down from 25,000 yen. In the U.S., the price drops to $169.99 from $249.99 on Aug. 12.

Although game fans may be disappointed by the Vita's slow arrival, delays are rather common in the gaming industry.

Sony delayed the introduction of the PlayStation 3 home console a couple of times. Nintendo also delayed the launch of the 3DS, which meant it wasn't ready for Christmas.

Wat maakt dat nou uit? Ik kan bij mijn telefoon ook de batterij niet zomaar even verwisselen en bij mijn 3DS boeit het me ook niet eigenlijk.
