Sony Cautious in PSP Production

Posted by Zonk on from the not-to-many-made-lest-they-go-broke dept.

GamesIndustry.biz has the story that Sony is limiting production of their new handheld. From the article: "Comments attributed to SCE spokesperson Kenichi Fukunaga in an Agence France-Presse article stated bluntly that manufacturing resources are being directed to the PlayStation 2 - a new slimline version of which was introduced earlier this month - rather than the PSP." Personally, I think this has just as much to do with a desire to create demand as it does with making sure they're not left with a dud on their hands. If you're going to release a handheld, release a handheld.

    I have one. They aren't flimsy. They're also signifigantly quieter than the old models.

    Try one, then form an opinion. That king of speculation if trolling.
