Or they can make the PSP come with a 3.71M33 firmware like all of Earth with a PSP have and make the world a better place. Then you get all the games in the world and more!
most poorly supported platform ever. seriously, it only took them 3 years to confess that the library is trash. there have been less then 10 AAA titles on this arthritis enducing torture device. i still don't get it, its really not a bad piece of hardware, and more then powerful enough to deliver some great games. i blame the UMD.
It is looking pretty bleak, that's for sure. I love my PSP to death, and not just for the homebrew, but it's getting really hard to support it in the coming months.
I mean, through summer alone, DS has Drone Tactics, Dodgeball Brawlers, Summon Night, Etrian Odyssey 2, Mega Man Star Force 2, FFTA-2, Trauma Center 2, FFIV, Izuna 2, Bangai-O Spirits, and who knows what else?
PSP has...uh...well. Erm...-maybe- Star Ocean in the -fall- if the rumor is true? I dunno...Really, really sad.

And they have to take surveys asking why people have been modding and emulating with the thing. Because, there's not a whole lot else to do with it.
As a Sony fan, I think one of the bigger disappointments that gives the rivals an edge is the lack of retro options. If they started re releasing more PS1 classics on the PS3 store, they'd gain a lot of ground on the others. Of course, that would likely require a second thumbstick-thing.

There are a good amount of PSP games that publishers simply won't translate and sell in the english-speaking markets. Even if some are repacks of older games *coughSuikoden1&2cough*, maybe I want those?!
I think the homebrew scene is huge and Sony should, somehow, use it to their advantage but block ISO's. Thats the only reason I still play my PSP.
yea, i have homebrew on my psp and thats pretty much all i use it for these days... especially since i beat patapon... needs moar games
Honestly, there aren't that many more games on my DS that I want to play versus what's available for the PSP. I'm just spending my money on console games instead. I'm kind of glad PSP isn't just remaking crap and putting out junk like most of the DS stuff, but they do need to kick it up a few notches.
hint:solve this by making the GT4:mobile,also another MGS:PO or siphon filter could do no harm or just release mgs on the PSN.
and why the captain obvious?sure may is an empty month but next month there's secret agent clank among others.

Uh, I'm sorry, but...what? o_O Aside from FFIV, do you even know what the hell you're talking about?

They just need to drop the PSP at a loss, make a PSP 2.0. Make sure its 100% secure aka needs updates as soon as possible. In fact they should just go ahead and issue a patch before PSP 2.0 that requires it to activate.
Right now the games are not coming because everyone hacks their system and gets them for free. No ones going to develop on a console where they don't get paid. Its easily over 30 mil in losses each year for these companies that'll do probably double to triple for those games that don't sell well in the first place.
They need to lock homebrew out altogether it's just a security risk. There probably 6 out of 10 people hacking these PSPs. So for every sale theres one or more people not buying the game. Thats just fucked up. I pirate too but I also suppose gaming, especially independent gaming with donations.
These fuckers are just plain dragging down the whole system to the grave.

Yes, because FF VII: Crisis Core, God of War: Chains of Olympus, Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops, Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, and Monster Hunter Freedom 2 are all entirely original and non-derivative.

The PSP certainly has more games for it I want than the DS. My GBA is getting a bit long in the tooth for the system I take to the can, especially since I've only bothered to keep two games for it, Advanced Wars 2 and FFT: Advance.
I think he means that the phenomenal games arent anything like Monster Hunter, in that theyre actually phenomenal new games (or so i hope). The MH series is pretty good, for sure, but its only such a big success because theres no other series like it. And capcom are lazy bastards, they wont improve it if its gonna sell as is.
@Volomon - You know why people pirate the games? Because none of them are really worth full price. Every decent game on the system is a deriative of a ps2 game that did it better anyway. The only real exception is Crisis Core, and the Monster Hunter games (which for some reason seem to suit the psp better).

The DS has more shovelware because they cost less to make and they have more people to sell it to. The Wii has more shovelware because it costs less to make and they have more people to sell it to. It costs more to make a PSP game. It takes loner to make a PSP game. And then you get to watch as people pirate them. Pirating is shaping the future of the videogame industry. I just wrote a term paper on the subject. Everything is right in the industry for another golden age of videogames. But the money isn't there because investors hate pirates.
