Rumor: Sony’s new handheld renamed to “PSVITA”

Posted by: 5/30/2011

onPause has gained information that has pointed to Sony renaming the new handheld “NGP” to “PSVITA”. These images are assumingly for the e3 2011 five hour marathon press conference. A blogger named Hugo Miramontes released these pictures of some press release images regarding the handheld. Since the release of the images the owner of the blog had taken them down.

Stating “This has to be one of the stupidest things I’ve ever done. I don’t know what I was thinking. I’m sorry. I really am.”

With the immortality of Internet. The images live on and we are glad to share with our readers.This may be a Hoax right out of the box. But, who knows with five hours to cram with information this may me right on. It also could be a code name that was for NGP before the original announcement. Onpause has reached out to Hugo for comment. Any information we receive we will follow up on.

[UPDATE] Sony has just opened a sub domain for PSVita aka “NGP”. Vita.SCEdev.net is the site. No other information is on the page regarding the PSVita. Maybe this rumor has some merit.
