PSP Phone Confirmed at PAX?

Sarcasticgamer.com scored a juicy tidbit from a Sony rep at PAX about the PSP-3000.

From the article: "While I was at the PSP booth, a very nice Sony representative allowed me to try out the PSP 3000. My impressions and the unconfirmed, confirmed, unconfirmed, yet totally confirmed rumor/truth, after the jump."

Now that would be awesome but could you imagine if the phone was the size of the psp and basiclly you would be carrying a brick.

But kool never the less

That's true, it would be a bit on the big side for a phone, but at the same time, you wouldn't really hold the phone up to your head anyway if they actually did make the PSP a real phone. I'd imagine that most people would just use a wired or wireless headset. Given that a lot of PSP owners take their PSP with them everywhere, it'd be pretty sweet to have a full fledged phone support in the PSP. Play games while you chat with your friends, sync up with the PC, etc. Even if it didn't have a touchscreen, I think the idea could work and would be fun nonetheless.

Nintendo Accused of 'Bullying' in Weak Patent Dispute Over Palworld

The article discusses a claim by an intellectual property (IP) expert that Nintendo likely does not hold patents strong enough to prevent the game developer Pocketpair from creating Palworld, a game that some believe resembles Pokémon. The expert suggests that Nintendo's legal challenges against Palworld could amount to nothing more than corporate bullying, as the patents Nintendo might be relying on are not robust enough to stand up to legal scrutiny. The situation could be seen as an example of a large corporation trying to exert undue influence over a smaller competitor.

Crazy how far they are willing to go over nothing rather than tell Game Freak to get their shit together and sort the quality of the mainline games out.

Personally I'd drop the two game bullshit, make a full on complete game, and take their time making the best game they can without relying on a silly battle gimmick they'll ditch after one game. Gimmicks out of battle is what they should be focusing on, beauty contests, berry making, secret bases, the underground, Seasons, events during day / night and post game content like travelling to a new location or something.

That's the thing, this is why we're now seeing more serious competitors in the genre. Game Freak has just been coasting by, doing the bare minimum in innovation for the last 20+ years. They need to get with the times. Hire more devs, give more dev time to foster creativity, etc. But now that they can't get away with that bare minimum they're trying to sue their competitors out of existence. It's disgusting.

been saying this since sun and moon.

gamefreak just isnt used to, still isnt used to, the console market. they did well on the handheld space but as a complete 3d developer z they fail miserable

the last two pkmn gens look like gamecube games. not to mention the bugs at launch.

but uve seen the ridiculous anount of copies sold at launch too.

Realistically though palworld Pokemon with guns featured so many themes and concepts that Nintendont
There's no way they would make a game where you could use realistic weapons or have pals slaving away.

They're not the same genre at all they just feature similar characters

I pretty much agree, two editions of the same game shouldn't even been a thing at this point. The foundations are solid, but the lack of content and having a lived in world really let the latest games down.

why would they do that when the fanbase is still willing to buy whatever low-effort and low-cost crap they are churning out? they are out to make as much money as possible with as little investment as possible and say what you want but GF is excellent at that front mainly because the fanbase allows them to. Nintendo is saying nothing because they are making money.

The article is actually Gamesradar's. MSN just used their page like a URL shortened link.

It's straight up bullying with mooney and using the government laws as a tool to do so. They should be fined.

force unleashed is a great game. Thankfully the 360 version is bc on the XBO/Series. It looks and plays even better than on original hardware.

A true classic. Recently I was experimenting with injecting ray tracing into this game using nvidia’s SSRTGI. The results were pretty slick!
