i dont think they should scrap it. shore the DS has sold a hell of alot more than the psp and it hasnt had an easy life but the fact its sold almost 60,000,000 shows that it has been a sucses and alot of people forget that this was sony's first venture into portable gaming where as nintendo been there ages o however you look at it they sucseeded


Perhaps not if you look at it from a return on investment perspective. Remember that the end goal is not to sell the most consoles, it's not even to make some profit. It's to make a worthwhile return on your investment (compared to other things you could invest in). If you can't do that, it's not worth it.

 

It could have been argued that PSP had gotten a foothold into the handheld market and was therefore a worthwhile investment, but the situation for Sony now is different to the situation when they launched PSP, as it is a PSP2 is going to have an even harder time than it's predecessor. This one will not have the confidence of the industry behind it, and on top of that Nintendo have a head start this time.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
