If the unverified Blockbuster UK flyer above is to be believed, it can only mean two things: 1) Blockbuster done goofed it, and 2) Her Majesty's gamers will be able to get their hands on Sony's touchy-feely handheld (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/Playstation-Vita) as early as October 28.
The mailer was delivered to IGN (http://psp.ign.com/articles/118/1184950p1.html) by an anonymous reader, and while the authenticity of the advertisement has yet to be authenticated, the date does coincide with Sony's global launch window (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/06/06/playstation-vita-launches-globally-by-end-of-2011-starting-at/). As of press time, no changes have been made to Blockbuster UK's pre-order listing for the Vita (http://www.blockbuster.co.uk/product/ps3/consoles/playstation-vita-wifi/266311.htm), which still lists the street date as "TBA." We'll be keeping a close eye on this one, but for the time being we're going to file it under "hrmmmm" in our massive rumor rolodex.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Rumor: PS Vita UK release date outed by Blockbuster (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/07/30/rumor-ps-vita-uk-release-date-outed-by-blockbuster/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Sat, 30 Jul 2011 12:30:00 EST.
