PS Vita TV is geared towards the Japanese market for the time being, but Sony's President of Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida has asked gamers to "stay tuned" on the matter.

Yoshida tweeted out his message today:

For people wondering about PS Vita TV outside Japan, we are just saying now "PS Vita TV releasing first in Japan". Stay tuned.

It follows yesterday's comments from Sony's Andrew House, in which he said the device is pegged for a wider Asian launch, but that there are no Western plans at this time.

It's essentially a device that allows gamers to play their PS Vita cartridges on their television, as well as streaming TV services and PS4 play.

What do you think of the device so far?
