PS Vita Is Region Free! Import Friendly

AppId is over the quota

Hurrah hurrah! The PlayStation Vita will be REGION-FREE and import-friendly, confirmed SCE President of Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida.

The new was confirmed via Yoshida’s official Twitter page, when the question about whether the PlayStation Vita would be region-free, and thus friendly to importers, was posed. Following Sony executive Michael Denny stating the PS Vita would be region free “as far as I know”, at E3 2011.

But this is the first time that official confirmation of the PlayStation Vita’s region-free, import-friendly status has been confirmed.

This, of course, will come as music to the ears of otaku everywhere who love to import obscure Japanese games that would never be released in the West. This also means you could import a Japanese PS Vita system and have it play your American (NTSC) or European (PAL) videogames and media just fine.

Will you import a PS Vita or do you plan on importing PlayStation Vita games?

Here is a video from the TGS 2011 PS Vita keynote.
