Sony to stop selling PSP dev kits [UPDATE]

Sony has contacted MCV to confirm the exact situation. The licence of the current PSP dev kits expires on November 15th. The company, however, WILL be renewing them and when that is complete the sale of current PSP kits will resume as normal.

So i guess its officially not a rumor anymore, but who cares, the psp life span will last 2 to 3 years from now...

Kors5753d ago (Edited 5753d ago )

Yeah, just because PSP2 is coming soon - it doesn't automatically mean PSP is dead.

Just like Sony is still selling both PS2 and PS3 - PSP and PSP2 can exist together, imo.

And PSP still has excellent support from Japan developers and gamers.

Its called legends of heroes vi trilogy.......thats all i need for the nextyear

Oh and 6 square psp localizations
valkyria 3
god eater burst
monster hunter freedom 3
yakuza black panther
shining hearts
the psp sure is dead

King-Leonidas5753d ago

yeah i agree. On the other article some idiot said:
'Oh psp is dead.
so now im looking forward to the 3ds'
i guess they just fail at trolling

maniac765753d ago

theyd be stupid to release a new model of the current and that dont count they new monster hunter one lol,guess ill give up buying for psp now unless i get a real cheap deal on games that are seald

cliffbo5753d ago

“We will continue to provide loan stock for registered and new developers until a new certified model is available.”

that sounds to me like they have a new kit nearly ready for release. that doesn't suggest to me that they are stopping PSP1 production

jneul5753d ago

just to think we still have awesome games coming in for PSP, there is PE:3rd Bday, Dissidia 2, FF Agito.
when the PSP time is done I think it wil be remembered for sticking around on the handheld market, every other company failed, well other than nintendo because they have always had the handheld industry

IrishYamato5753d ago

You forgot to add Ghost of Sparta- it's supposed to max out the PSP.

BillOreilly5753d ago

ive been waiting on ff13 for psp so long im starting to believe it will be a psp2 game

Fishy Fingers5753d ago

Should start seeing a few PSP2 info leaks soon then.

Stealth20k5753d ago

The article basically says that the psp will be around for a long time

The soonest youll see the psp 2 is E3 in 9 months

DrillaKid5753d ago

I think we could see the PSP2 at CES11 which is in January; it would make sense to at least announce it before the 3DS is released so people at least know it's coming.

Stealth20k5753d ago (Edited 5753d ago )

Not really a big place for gamers though......

The rumors are saying we wont hear about it till after the 3ds launches
