Capcom, one of the largest publishers of PlayStation Network titles, is planning to launch a branded PlayStation Network Store.
"Out of all of the third-party companies making use of the digital space, [Sony] recognizes Capcom is one of the best partners for content," said John Diamonon, product manager of Capcom's PSN titles.
This is a major step forward in the establishment of Capcom as a "digital brand."
"With digital, that object can be highlighted in about 20 different ways," said Diamonon. "I think Sony is first to recognize that. The more opportunities that someone has a chance to see or be exposed to our content ... the more likely it is that someone will give a Capcom title a shot."
Expect other major PSN publishers to follow suit. The Capcom PlayStation Store will be available this November alongside the launch of Age of Booty.

They are obviously going to have a sort by publisher section now that the publishers can customise the look off, a very handy feature to have

Imagine if EA said to Sony "yeah we would like a store space too, but were afraid it might be too difficult to program for"
I will never forget EA saying that the PS3 was too difficult to program games for.
I had a new thought, yes Capcom having their own store is a very good idea, i would like to see other Devs using this feature too to sell their stuff, i look forward to watching in the coming months.

LOL @ 15 Aye how many companies will say "we would do it, but to customise the Store is too difficult". I'd imagine it to be Bebo-esque custom options.. Good news tho, I reckon it'll be very wise for companies to intigrate their shops into PSN directly, tho for current games, they need patches, so expect MOANING devs...
