| KungKras said: I know this is just a rumour, but I do belive it is true. Sony's marketing KNOWS that they can't have similar specs to 3DS, because that would make it too similar to PSP, and people would not see the point of upgrading. So they are practically forced to make another powerhouse handheld, while people will see the 3D screen and PSP-like graphics as an impressive improvement from the regular DS. Nintendo's got Sony exactly where they want them. Jugding from the third party games, that would be typical launch titles for a Playstation appearing on 3DS, I think third parties know this too. I don't see what Sony can possibly do with another powerhouse handheld like the PSP. The successor won't be made by an 'unbeatable' console company, and it's competitor is not considered the underdog anymore. EDIT: I'll also add, that moving upmarket is the textbook incumbent behavior in disruption litterature. |
They could be moving down market.
See: xxxx millions of Apple iOS products.
See: xxx millions of DS products.
Which has more x?
Obviously the wider the market the more downmarket you're going and you can achieve that by adding more performance so long as that performance is relevent to the wider market. So really now the question of how downmarket the PSP2 has gone is in relation to how good the software is and how good the user experience is in doing non-gaming applications. Sometimes it is the core who accept lower performance whilst the wider market waits for the solutions to become practical.
Tease.
