THE BUZZ: Rumors that the 3G version of the PlayStation Vita has been cancelled have been rubbished by Sony, who claims this is not true at all.

The Amazon.com listing for the product stated that the 3G version has been ”Discontinued by manufacturer,” which led many to believe that after poor Japanese sales this version had been thrown out by Sony. ”It’s not true,” a Sony representative has told IGN. “We’ll look into this now and ask our team to connect with Amazon.” Since this statement the listing has changed back to an official release date.

EGM’s TAKE: This appears to just be a crossed wire somewhere along the line and has now been straightened out.
