With just over a couple of weeks to go until Sony’s new handheld beauty is released, Sony has today announced that it plans to give every GAME and Gamestation store in the country a PS Vita so that you the customers can try it out before its released. Sounds pretty exciting and aswell as giving us a try they are also giving every store manager a free PS Vita, the lucky devils.

Fergal Gara, SCE UK vice president and managing director said today:

PlayStation Vita is an amazing piece of technology – but the very best way to make people realise this, is by putting it in their hands.

The beauty and clarity of the five inch OLED screen, the ergonomic design with the dual analogue joysticks, the interaction of the rear touch panel, all come emphatically to life. With our own Vita Rooms and now, with this opportunity for consumers to sample PS Vita in any of GAME or Gamestation’s 600 specialist retail stores, the excitement can only continue to build.

Will you be popping down to your local store for a try out? And with only a couple of weeks till release just how excited are you? Let us know in the usual manner.
