Hi everyone! PS Vita was developed with the idea of creating and delivering compelling content for gamers. With the recent announcements of applications such as nico nico, Treasure Park, Wake-up Club, and Skype, we’re continuing to build out PS Vita’s portfolio of applications. Today, we’re very excited to announce the latest application addition to PS Vita – YouTube!

Coming at the end of June, YouTube will be available as a free downloadable application for PS Vita via the PS Vita Store. With the YouTube application on PS Vita, you can watch millions of YouTube videos on the stunning 5” OLED screen, from comedy to gaming tips to today’s viral trends. The YouTube application features many of the functions you’re already familiar with – you can easily search for videos, choose favorites and make comments, and your personal YouTube account is available right on your PS Vita.

As we move further into 2012, we look forward to introducing you to more unique, social and immersive experiences only available on PS Vita. How will you use YouTube on PS Vita?

Vita has no Gaemz umm...I mean Apps?

I could have sworn youtube was already possible using the normal internet or does it not count anymore unless it comes through an "app"?



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.

It never worked on the vita through the internet because the vita does not have flash player.

You can already watch most of the content on Youtube without flash. Does anybody know good the Vita's browser is with HTML5?

I'm surprised that Vita didn't already have a YouTube app... It better be at least as good as the Android app.

You lucky bastards.

(Has been waiting for a 3DS equivalent for about a year.)
