Curious as it mentions UMD titles, do you guys buy them much?

The psp has done very well in a market previously owned by nintendo, and put up numbers similar to the PS2. I do buy the big first party games on umd I usually dont have time for any others. I am planning to buy Locoroco 2, patapon 2, and resistance retribution so far this year, we'll see what else good comes out.
[QUOTE="Atari, post: 0]Not to be a too much of a downer but, 200 million games divided by 50 million units is only 4 games per PSP. No wonder developers don't want to support it.[/quote]
Yea but your forgetting the fact that its not 200million games sold, its how much money they made from selling those games, or am i wrong because 200 million just sounds like a money number not a games number

yea the psp is a great handheld (i own two, ice silver & piano black 2000 series) its so much more than just a gaming device, i have movies, games, music, photos on my psp...you really begin to appreciate it when you use it for all of it multimedia capabilities...apart from games, i love having movies on the go.
honestly i'm in no rush to see a psp2, i think their is so much more that developers can do with the system if they invest their time & money. also their's a slew of psp games coming our way...prinny can i really be the hero? Resistance Retribution, patapon 2, FF Dissidia, KH BBS & hopefully many more.
honestly i'd love to see that rumoured LBP & motorstorm psp titles, as well as an uncharted psp title...that would be awesome.

The PSP is a great hardware. As much as what certain "fanboys" may want to say, 50 million is not shabby at all, and this is at a higher price point than its competitor's product.
The UMD tie-ins are crap, though... 200 million UMD's shipped is 4 per PSP... Man, there's so much piracy on the PSP. As much as I love my home brew on my PSP, I really hope for OUR sake that Sony fixes the piracy issue with PSP2 so that it'll have more developer support!
This little device probably saved me hundreds of dollars over the years as I didn't need to replace my MP3 when it reached its end of life usefulness-wise (it's only got a 256MB of storage) or get some sort of mobile video player since the PSP does both
. Not to mention, it's provided me with hundreds of hours of good fun!

That's an awesome mile-mark for Sony. I'm sure they didn't expect to sell such an amount of systems in a market that has been nominated by Nintendo for such a long time.
Now if only they could sell some games for the damn thing...
I'm sure Sony has learned a lot of valuable lessons from the PSP though, and it will be interesting to see what they do with the PSP2, when the time comes.
