The folks at WayForward have announced today on their Kickstarter page that with Sony’s announcment of the newest model of PS VITA and PS VITA that the game they are fundraising for will also be released on Sony’s portable.

The release won’t be added as a stretch goal but will be included in the package as an option if the company makes their $400,000 fundraising goal.

“Hey folks, a lot of you have been asking for Half-Genie Hero on VITA. As it happens, the landscape of gaming has shifted somewhat today with Sony’s VITA TV announcement.
