Sony is no longer producing the PlayStation Vita. The company announced that it’s ended production on the console’s last two models over on its Japanese product page. Sony already announced early on that it would stop producing the PS Vita this year. Any physical game cards produced for the device would also be stopped at the end of the 2018 fiscal year, which is March 31, 2019.

Launched in 2011, the PS Vita didn’t quite catch on, selling only 16.1 million units, which as The Verge points out is a far cry from the previous PlayStation Portable that preceded it and the Nintendo Switch that followed it.
