Team Ninja, the Tecmo Koei-owned studio behind the Ninja Gaiden series, has a PlayStation Vita development kit in-studio, but are still considering whether or not they’ll develop for the platform.

Speaking to PlayStation UK, Team Ninja boss Yosuke Hayashi said, “We’ve received a PlayStation Vita system and are thinking about it. Having said that, right now we’re focused on Ninja Gaiden 3 for PS3 [and Xbox 360], and after that’s complete we’ll start to look at ideas such as bringing out Ninja Gaiden on PS Vita because of course we’d like to expand the series.”

Ninja Gaiden III is scheduled for a Q1 2012 release.

Thanks, Joystiq.
