‘Unique’ PSP games are promise by SONY
This year a number of ‘unique’ PSP (PlayStation portable) games are promise by SONY.
In addition to Secret Agent Clank, Final Fantasy: Crisis Core and a bunch of additional sports games, Sony marketing manager John Koller said he didn’t want to “scoop” anything, but that some “very unique” titles are coming later this year, with a focus on “franchise umbrellas”.
In terms of downloadable games, Koller said consumer education will be a hurdle in the coming months because the PSP store is still in its infancy. “The Store will be very, very important for Sony and for the PSP’s future,” he said, including both PS1 and PS2 re-releases.
Koller also mentioned that upcoming PSP peripherals will include North American version of the GPS add-on, camera and a keyboard (for internet browsing) planned for release this autumn.
To date, Sony has sold more than 31 million PSP systems worldwide. By comparison, Nintendo has sold more than 65 million global DS units.
