hmmm...your right I didn't read the gaming news or have the time like you have to view or search around for that particular info like you. Just to make it clear to you so you will understand. I watched the conference I didn't read and during Sony conference they didn't mention that. But thanks for letting me know the information that they are doing a system for UMD users. So now I don't have to go search and look around on the net for info or neglect the PSP since you were my source. Two thumbs up for you! |

"[Update] Additionally, Sony intends to make upgrading to the PSP Go more viable for those with large existing UMD collections.
John Koller recently spoke with Gizmondo regarding the burning question, "what will gamers that upgrade to the PSP Go do with their collection of UMDs?" The answer is apparently that Sony has a good will plan to offer PSP owners to obtain digital copies of their games for ease of use with the PSP Go. Koller says, "We're in the midst of putting together a good will program. We'll be unveiling that soon [because] we actually think there's a significant group that will be upgrading from the 1000...In the past, we've seen a 20-25% trade-up factor, and I assume that's going to be the case here. We've modeled that. So we're looking at a good-will program—a short term good-will program that would continue for years afterward." As mentioned before, the availability of digital copies for some third party games may be iffy. We can only hope that this transfer of physical titles to digital at least encompasses all the good PSP games." There was a thread on it a while back, but I dunno where it is. Hope this helps!
