How The US Promotes The Vita

The Japanese have revealed their advertising campaign to promote the Playstation Vita ahead of its December 17 launch (which you can see for yourself here and here). A few months later, on February 22 2012, the Vita will debut in North American and European markets. So, how is the United States going to promote the Playstation Vita exactly? They are not going with a teaser spot like the Japanese. In fact, they are going the complete opposite.

The ad for the United States market has been posted online and, if you do watch, Sony Computer Entertainment America seems to go for a more direct approach. It shows off the Vita and several of its features and games. It also notes that there will be support for cross platform multiplayer, showing WipEout as the example. No actors, no school kids. It is just the Vita. You can watch the video below.

Josh is the name, writing is my game... well my degree will say that. But, when uni gets me down (and it does), there is no better way that to grab a chair, sit back and slicing up some DarkspawnI started my gaming interest back in the good old 16 bit era with the Sega Mega Drive and Sonic The Hedgehog 2. I was roughly five years old. To this day I still try to fire up the dusty companion and speed through the wacky and bright levels, jumping on some Badniks, collecting those damn Chaos Emeralds. Then I moved onto Sony's disk based console the Playstation (thanks to my uncle). Since then I have picked up each of Sony's consoles from the 5th to current generation that has been released in Australia (with more to come).In terms of writing about games, I am quite new to the field. I started out late last year with my own blog before deciding to move to greener pastures. I have written a few reviews for the Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable. Features as well. I hope I can flex my muscles while writing with Capsule Computers.If I'm not gaming, however, I'm writing narratives. I am currently trying to kickstart a high fantasy novel (which, hopefully, turns into a complex RPG) that I want done in five years or so. My passion of writing has been there for a long time and has flourished as I grew. I'm into the fantasy genre, both games and novels, and thoroughly enjoy a deep and complex RPG, whether it comes from the East or West.Oh and anime is awesome!
