Surprisingly, Sony also officially launched Playstation Vita, a new entertainment system within the PlayStation family that will allow users to easily access various content on their TV at home. Game titles may be purchased and downloaded online. Sony also showcased the new and cheaper Playstation Vita, which is a rich portable gaming console in its own respect and doubles as second-screen to the PS4.

Benefits of Pre-Purchases and Launch-Day Buyers

During the launch, it was announced that those who pre-purchased and who will buy PS4s today until tomorrow, are entitled to have an additional ONE YEAR WARRANTY COVERAGE in countries where the product has been officially launched (including Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia), and the warranty will be valid throughout these countries. Wherever the customers are, they can also have the repair service for their products. That’s really a very good deal… especially for early adopters!
