In September 2018, SIE Vice President Hiroyuki Oda announced that plans were underway to halt PlayStation Vita production in 2019. Sadly, it seems such a time is nearly upon us. Production of the handheld could end in Japan in the next few months. According to Gematsu, product pages for the final two Vita SKUs in production in Japan (Black and Aqua Blue) note: ?shipments are scheduled to end soon.?
