There are many third party developers and publishers feverishly working on titles' says Sony VP Scott Rohde
Sony has launched a staunch defence of its PS Vita handheld amidst rumours that developers are cancelling projects for the platform in favour of Nintendo’s 3DS.
Speaking to Gamasutra (http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/40335/Is_Vita_losing_developer_support_already_Sony_resp onds.php), Sony VP of worldwide studios Scott Rohde said that reports from Japanese website Nikkei of a developer exodus were “extreme” and untrue.
He said that many developers and publishers were supportive of the handheld and were creating games for it.
"I did not see that quote, but you see extremist quotes like that all the time," said Rohde.
"I mean, obviously, there is no way anyone could stand in front of a camera and say that all developers are changing focus from one platform to another, no matter what it is."
