Sony exec admits that PSP developer community should be revitalized

Filed under: Gaming, Handhelds

If you just can’t get enough of what Sony Europe execs are saying, here’s another mouthful just days after hearing from David Reeves. This time we’ve got SCEE’s VP of publisher and developer relations Zeno Colaço shouting out on the state of PSP, and overall, his comments weren’t that surprising. Most notably, he mentioned that the developer community needed to be “revitalized” so that it would get behind the PSP in a big way. When asked about the current dearth of games for the handheld, he commented that such a scenario happens “when you rely on a business model that relies on 25% games from Sony and 75% from other publishers.” He continued by stating that Sony “probably suffered” from being unable to completely recover when third-party developers refocused efforts away from the PlayStation Portable. Hungry for more? You know where to head for the full interview.
