If you?ve been looking to take Sony?s upcoming handheld for a spin and you live in the United States, now?s your chance to do so in a retail shop near your home. GameStop announced today by way of press release that the PlayStation Vita is officially available for demo in more than 3,300 retail locations.
As for which games will be playable in the shops, the press release lists a few that will be available:
- UNCHARTED: Golden Abyss(TM)
- Little Deviants(TM)
- Hot Shots Golf(R): World Invitational
- EA SPORTS FIFA Soccer
- ModNation(TM) Racers: Road Trip

GameStop also indicated that they wold have a special 3G/Wi-Fi bundle for the PS Vita that includes a few extra goodies for sale on February 22nd. Here?s what that bundle includes:

When it comes to handheld gaming, as far as I?m concerned, one of the most important enjoyment variables stands in the comfort of the device. If you can?t hold and play a portable for more than 20 minutes at a time, then you?ve likely got your hands on something that isn?t exactly ergonomically sound.
So, if you?re on the market for a new portable and the PS Vita has your interest, I suggest you head to a store and check it out. Worst case scenario: you try it, you hate it and you save yourself some scratch. Or, you?ll try it and fall in love with the device even harder.
The PS Vita will launch for special pre-orders on February 15th. It will hit retail fully a week later on February 22nd. Will you be picking one up?
