Sony Corp. may stagger the global release of its next-generation PlayStation Portable game machine after the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan last month led to production disruptions.
The new PlayStation Portable, dubbed “NGP,” may be introduced in a single region this year instead of starting sales in Asia, Europe and the U.S. in time for the end-of-year holiday shopping season, said Jack Tretton, president of Sony Computer Entertainment of America, citing production problems related to the March 11 disaster.
