Sony Confirms 59 In-Development Japanese Titles for PSP

roadies writes "As tangentially mentioned a day or two back, Sony has confirmed 59 PSP titles currently in Japanese development, with many likely to make the Japanese launch of the handheld. Depending on how many debut at hardware release, this may make other handheld system launches pale in comparison, at least compared to the U.S.: the GBA had 15 titles, N-Gage only had 6 titles, and the cult favorite Neo Geo Pocket Color had around 10 launch titles. This is interesting in light of rumors that PSP dev kits haven't been widely released." Which of the games on the current list actually excite you?

  1. That number will come down for the launch by Bloomy · · Score: 3, Informative

    Here's another IGN story from December 2000 that said around 22 games would launch with the GBA in Japan. And Majesco said they would have 7 games for the American launch. The IGN list above has been whittled down to 3 Majesco titles. If you follow some of the links from the IGN's GBA list, some missed the launch, and they don't have Castlevania : Circle of the Moon, which did make the launch.
