Sony has sent around an invite to an event next Thursday where the company will be introducing its slimmest launch. There isn’t any more clues other than that, but it’s quite easy to hazard a guess as to what will be announced.
The most likely thing to be revealed is the new Vita model, the PCH-2000 which launched in Japan a few months ago. It’s 20% thinner than the standard Vita, 15% lighter, and ditches the OLED screen replacing it with an LCD screen. It’s also available in a host of colours too. If that’s the case then it could give the Vita a new push in western markets.
Other possibilities could be the PS Vita TV, though it would make sense to call it something else like the tiny launch, considering the Vita TV is only 6cm x 10cm in size. Then again it could get announced too during this reveal alongside the Vita 2000.
Another possibility, though an outside bet for now, is the new PS3 model recently announced and created with PlayStation Now in mind. However, that reveal may be saved for a bigger event such as E3 or Gamescom. It will be interesting to see what Sony will show on Thursday.
