"The PSP may not be perfect, but it's far from a failure, even if it hasn't managed to knock Nintendo off of its lofty perch in handheld gaming.
Sony's console has sold nearly 25 million units worldwide. To put that into perspective, the original Xbox sold 24 million units in its entire five-year lifespan."
"In two short years, it has gone from being a non-entity in the handheld market to a worthy competitor, capable of competing on some level with seasoned handheld pro Nintendo."
"Reason 1: Improved services
Reason 2: PSP games are getting ever better
Reason 3: PSP is getting cheaper"
Acquire, famous for games like Tenchu and Octopath Traveler, becomes KADOKAWA subsidiary. Can this mean a revival for beloved series?
I would kill to have a Way of the Samurai game with a huge budget and modern tech... The first game was one of my greatest joys on PS2 back in the day. And I really hope From Software will do something with Tenchu... I hate that they're just sitting on the IP like it doesn't even exist.
Tenchu would be superb in this day and age. Ninja and samurai games are hot right now and more is better.
Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?
Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.
Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida is interested in working on a brand new Final Fantasy Tactics game.
Not from you.
Knowing how you handled FF16 by trying to make it appeal to non-fans and changing the entire gameplay design I can see you changing Tactics to appeal to non-fans.
If they’re going to do this please give it to someone who wants to keep the game and genre in tact.
I wouldn't mind a new FF Tactics longs they keep the tactical elements of Tactics in it as well as a very in depth story. Which FF Tactics years ago has by far one of the best stories in the series.

When there are 10 games that I want to play... I'll have to start looking through them and make a list or something. I just really enjoy my DS right now, and see no present need for a 2nd portable.
I dont think I'll ever buy a psp. The battery life is terrible and the games just arent all that good despite what this article says. I'd take a ds over a psp anyday.
The best purchase i ever made, its brilliant thanks to darkalex's custom firmware, the option to backup and play all your old ps1 games on it, backup your psp isos, nintendo64 emulations, snes emulation with wi-fi link for multiplayer, gameboy emulation, its brilliant!! i really love it!
