Ridiculous

Those of you in North America will be forced to stick with the classic blue version of the PlayStation Store for the time being. Following the disastrous roll-out of the new storefront overseas, Sony has decided to postpone the release of the revamp in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Brazil. Eric Lempel explained that an “exceptional experience” must be guaranteed before a new launch date is decided. Judging by the response to the European release, we're guessing that might take a while yet.

The new PlayStation Store arrived in the UK on Wednesday before being pulled due to complaints about slow loading and general bugs. The refresh has since launched in some smaller European territories, while Sony works through the issues.
