I'm looking forward to Nintendo's response. Apparently they didn't expect such a massive wave of PSP support. The handheld market could become interesting again.

What kind of response? Does this change anything for Ninty?

 

It does, definitely. No matter what some people say Nintendo and Sony are at least competing for 3rd Party support. And Nintendo had to face the effect of decreasing 3rd Party support in 2008 on both Wii and DS, at least in Japan. Nintendo want to appeal to a different market but if developers feel like Sony is the better way to go they'll develop for Sony platforms obviously. Nintendo hasn't announced a big DS line-up so far as they are focusing on the Wii currently.

With DS worldwide software numbers 3-4 times bigger than PSP last year I can't see any reason for concern. I guess you informed better than me, that even in Japan DS software far ahead of PSP software numbers. Highly unlikely that even a bunch of blockbusters could change anything drastically.

The best we can hope, that we'll get some good games this or next year on PSP.
