PSP2 will have a harder time but not majorly because how PSP performed but because Playstation brand is not the biggest thing in gaming as it was when PSP released.PSP performed very well and sold comfortable the first two year both HW and SW the first two years and then it went downhill because of piracy,if they can solve that and they surely will then it won't be much different 3DS is getting games that are usually bold and on Playstation system doesn't mean PSP2 can't get the same franshise and a few ninty third party games and even if MH is announced for 3DS,nothing will happen as PSP2 will still have the big games. "as soon as MH gets announced, it's over completely".......................lmao
how is 3DS what japanese devs have chosen when its not even launched and we haven't even heard the PSP2 lineup,man tone down your comments,you are gonna fall hard |
PSP made a LOT of headway on Sony's reputation at the time, and on the factors going into the handheld war. I mean, at that point Sony was the undisputed leader in gaming, had the best selling system in history under their belt, had almost all the biggest games on their systems, and was coming into the hardheld market (Nintendo's last area of real success) with a sleek PS2 level, $200, disc based wonder that was going up against Nintendo's weird, ugly little, cobbled together, two screened, cart based, handheld N64. We had Sony's PR promises of lifting us out of the "Handheld ghetto", we had PS2 quality games like a FFVII prequel and a full sized GTA, we had Hollywood movies... everyone thought Nintendo was going to get massacred.
Looking at where Sony sits today, where PSP sits today, it's a world of difference. And that, chiefly, if why PSP2 has a much tougher road ahead of it than it's predecessor got.
As far as MoHun, it's pretty much the only reason PSP's at all successful it's one decent market today (Japan). PSP2 losing that would be like a Nintendo handheld losing Pokemon, it'd be detrimental to the system. If Nintendo snags MoHun for 3DS, it's about as close to fatal blow as we've ever seen in videogames.
