Yoshida: PS4 and PS Vita were developed simultaneously

In the latest issue of Edge magazine, Shuhei Yoshida, President of Sony’s Worldwide Studios for Sony Computer Entertainment Inc, looked back on the development history of the PlayStation 4 and revealed that the next-gen console was developed alongside the PlayStation Vita.

"PS Vita was a shorter project compared to PS4, but Mark [Cerny] and Worldwide Studios were involved in both projects, and we worked on both projects simultaneously,” explained Yoshida.

Hopefully this means the PS4 will have more features and cross-functions with the PS Vita. Sony already announced gamers would be able to play all PS4 games on their Vitas via Remote Play.
