How Sony Can Make Their Next Gen Portable A Must Buy?

It's simple: New IPs that can sell more the than 20 million with one single game. I mean Uncharted, God of War, Heavy Rain, Metal Gear and even Gran Turismo (combined!?) aren't capable to move as much hardware as a simple 2D Mario (you just have to look at the PSP and DS software sales to see it). So instead of PS3-like games the NGP will need some DS/Wii-like games in order to become a must buy for a wide audience.

Did you even read the article?

The NGP is tapping into a market far larger than even a Nintendo game can dream.  Iphone type games, and this may be one of the single biggest reasons that Nintendo should be very worried about the NGP in my opinion.

I don't think companies like Firemint and Gameloft will be able to develop big hits to increase the sales of the NGP. They will probably develop multi-platform games for MGP/iPhone/3DS/Android.

And by the way, I'm worried about the 3DS sales as well... I think DS > 3DS and PSP > NGP in sales the next gen, but this is subject for another thread.
