PS Vita won't get a price cut in the U.S.

Sony has confirmed that it has no intention of cutting the price of PlayStation Vita in the U.S. just yet.

Quizzed by Joystiq if the high-powered handheld would be getting a price drop, head of Sony Worldwide Studios, Shuhei Yoshida, replied: “No, it’s not.”

The comments come following the electronic giant’s decision to slash the price of PS Vita in Japan.

Presumably Yoshida’s comments also rules out a PS Vita price cut in Europe, although we’ll have to wait and see.

Sony announced yesterday during the PlayStation Meeting that it will release PlayStation 4 in holiday 2013. The console will share a strong relationship with PS Vita, with remote play being a major focus for Sony going forward.
