3DS is already out in Japan, and is heading west at the end of March. Sony’s NGP, the console many hail as impressive, was set to release late this year in Japan, and early the following year in the West. Sony’s not having it. The giant’s attempting to release NGP on November 11th in the UK, with a U.S. release coming around the same time.
That’s according to MCV, citing its sources, and online leaks. The website says “third party licensees insist that NGP will arrive in Europe this year”, and that “development deadlines have been set to ensure key Western releases are finished before the end of the summer for deployment in the autumn.”
The Next Generation Portable was first unveiled, Sony’s Kaz Hirai said it would begin a roll out of the device in different markets this year.
If true, this is amazing news for gamers looking to get their hands on the device, and with titles like Uncharted and Killzone, plus Call of Duty appearing, there’s no stopping NGP.
Unless Sony kills us with a nasty price. Don’t worry, it’ll be attractive, because Sony’s learnt its lessons.
