Sony Exec Confirms PSP Delay Possibility

Posted by Zonk on Friday October 15, 2004 @06:15AM from the raise-your-hand-if-you're-surprised dept.

PSP launch delays have been discussed before, but GamesIndustry.biz is running an article today in which network systems exec Izumi Kawanishi confirms the system may be delayed. This despite continuing announcements regarding launch titles for the system. From the article: "Speaking in an interview with Impress Watch AV, Kawanishi said that it is still possible that the console will be released this year in Japan, but that this depends on whether game publishers will have software ready for launch."

Look, nobody believed it, but /. posted it anyway ... exactly when DS info came out. Now that more DS info is coming out, everyone's reporting on how the PSP is being delayed. This is a standard Sony strategy to keep their product in the press as long as possible, and to keep the competition out. Unfortunately, the ever-retarded video game press still hasn't caught on.
