I predict that very few developers (outside of Sony 1st party) will ever use the full power of NGP, it just won't be profitable enough for them.  NGP games are going to be very expensive to create and they will surely cost in the $40-60 range at retail.  PS3 ports will help fill in the games schedule on NGP.  However, few us will want to buy the exact same guy that we got on the PS3 for the NGP.

Also, if NGP is going to operate purely on raw power it has a difficult road ahead.  New Ipod/Ipad models will be released well in advance of NGP.  Apple will probably surpass the raw power of the NGP 1 or 2 years after NGP release.  What will happen to the NGP then?  Many of the exclusives that NGP would have had will probably eventual have multi-console releases on Ipod/Ipad and NGP. 

I think NGP looks great, but being in a technological arms race is very difficult in today's handheld market.  3DS has also shown it can receive HD console ports (ie SSIV).  It should be very interesting to watch the next-gen handheld battle ut unfold. 

 


Yes, thats why NGP got praised for being very developer friendly and all 3rd party developers said its amazing (SEGA, EPIC....)
