One of the strengths that the psp has right now, is that it has the largest base of what traditional core and hardcore gamers like. However, there are a lot of things Sony can do to hold this and also introduce new concepts or control styles.
However, the problem with having this advantage is that the ds2 is supposedly a graphical leap to about Gamecube levels. Along with improving hardware and graphics, dev costs are going to go up for psp, whereas for the ds2, dev price will be about the cost of what regular psp developing is. This is a strength for nintendo because it represents an improvement with no added cost over psp. This means that current psp devs could potentially make multiplat games, or switch over entirely if the dev costs for psp2 are too high.
However, should Sony come out with the glasses thing like I mentioned, or something similarly unique, they could not only maintain the devs and prevent cross platform development, but also expand the market to other consumers and create new tech possibilities.
