IGN - they get good exclusives and have some entertaining ppl working there, but hell are they as dumb as patrick the starfish.

Firstly they dont point out that the event is 2 hours. Do they really think it takes 2 hours to announce a ps vita model.
The PS Vita also is not called the Ps Vita Slim. Yes it is slimmer than the vita 1000, but it is called the vita-2000.
In igns article (Dont wanna link to give them views) they consistently call the vita as the vita slim.
Yet from  acouple months ago they refer to it as vita-2000, and from a ctrl-f of multiple pages, i didnt find any slim word except when it says something along the line of 'the vita 2000 is 20% slimmer than...' etc. etc.

 

 

IGNS description of vita 2000 from japanese release:
The PS Vita PCH-2000 is the latest Vita model announced from Sony. It was debuted on September 8th, 2013, a few days before the Tokyo Game Show.[1] The new model is 20 percent thinner and 15 percent lighter than the standard Vita model, and is more “affordable,” packing a 5” LCD display in lieu of an OLED screen. Battery life has been increased by an hour, as well. The new models are also slated to come in different colors. They will feature 1 GB of internal storage.

 

Ok so it may be me being fussy but I see it more likely as being the vita TV. That is the slimmest PlayStation device to date, I believe, the extra time will probably be for them to announce a couple big games, and a few indies.
I highly doubt sony would introduce a new model vita in the US, when the current model being a couple of eyars old is selling 5k a week average.
They are calling it the slimmest launch, so I think they are planning to essentially 'relaunch' the vita in western markets. 

Remember, the PS4 event was 2 hours, and that revealed not only hardware but also tons of software.

Now please tell me im wrong.............
