well if they do, only trouble with that is that you need not only a $400 home console, but then another $250 system for just the starting gate. or what is ps3 right now price wise?

then how do you track this? out of the 50 million ps3 users and XX amount of Psv users how many have both? i guess by signing onto psn and linking or whatever they coudl get a figure, but then what do they do? do they announce regularily that currently there are 5 million people that have BOTH of our systems?

or how do they let developers know that there is a market for these types of gaming experiences?

its kind of like move. sure it has sold 8 million, but where is its support software wise? when something is not implemented from the get go its tough to pick up.

it would most likely be targeted at the already existing ps3 owners who are interested in the PSV.  getting support will probably be a problem but if developers are doing it for nintendo anyway then they might as well give it to the PSV, PS3 combo as well, this would make developers more interested in developing for the Wii U as well if it fails to impress one group of console owner it might just take of with the other group of console owner reduce risk.
