They need more and better games to hit western markets to be successful. In Japan where it competes head to head with the DS week after week it receives its best support particularly from third parties. Sony talks endlessly about its first party studios but big games from them are few and far between. Where are the western developed third party games? Why is the only GTA the PSP has received in what 3 years a DS port? Why didn't Sony push Monster Hunter for the PSP like Nintendo is doing for the Wii? When it was launched the PSP looked like it would walk all over the DS but it seems like the platform became an afterthought to them or they thought it could get by on brand recognition alone. Sony made a big deal about s flood of games being in development for the console last year what happened to those games? Only the new Metal Gear game looks like it will be a hit and will likely be heavily front loaded and disappear after a month. Sony needs to sort out its software issues before it even looks to launch a new PSP. If the PSP2 is going to have 3d I don't think the gloves or glasses idea will work all it will take is one idiot to get hit by a car using it for people to be in a uproar. People playing on the same system would limit system sales as well though maybe accessory sales could make up for it. I always thought the PSP could be a great phone but then I wonder how they make it compatible with the different networks. GSM or CDMA, European or North American frequencies. They could sell it unlocked but I don't believe that works on CDMA carriers. Anyway Sony has a lot of things to think about and they have to think fast as Nintendo and Apple seem exactly the type to kick you while your down.
