The PSPgo is a successful platform for Sony and met sales expectations, SCEA senior vice president Peter Dille has insisted.

"People, I think, have a mistaken perception that the Go is its own platform," Dille said in an interview with Joystiq.

"The Go is a form factor for the PSP platform, and it was always intended for a specific consumer: the high end of the food chain that's very comfortable with digital. That's not everybody, and therefore, our expectations weren't that this was going to replace PSP.

"It's met our expectations, it's part of a bigger ecosystem and it also helps us evangelise a digital lifestyle that we think will continue to plant its roots. In that regard, it's been a success."

The PSPgo was launched in 2009 as a digital-only alternative to the standard UMD-enabled PSP. In June, Sony offered 10 free games as a purchase incentive to boost flagging sales.

Sony's PSP Go PR is a special kind of Bull****

TOKYO — Japanese publishers looking to import American games face a daunting task in a country that hasn’t warmed to next-gen graphics and first-person shooters.

“Japan’s never been very receptive to foreign games,” says Gwyn Campbell, who works for a major game publisher in Tokyo and is the host of a gaming podcast with other expatriates. “The term ‘foreign game’ is traditionally an insult — it means ‘low quality.’”

The anti-Western prejudice is deeply ingrained in the minds of Japanese gamers, who traditionally favor handheld devices like the Nintendo DS over high-powered consoles like the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3.

Yo-ge, kuso-ge, goes the saying: “Western game, shit game.”

Is it wrong that I'm tempted to buy this, just because I live in London?

You should buy it regardless, because it's faaantastic. Will pick up Last Window at some point as well.

And yes, Castlevania looks RAD. I must get an early copy.

Have you played the Unwound Future?

...Rising demo reminds me of one mirrion troops.

I don't really get that slicing demo. Is that using Move or just a normal controller? With move it would be fun. If they are turning a stick whilst standing in front of a table that would be slow and unwieldly. Also, it cut through the items but not the table. So there is some sort of obvious assist there. What happens if you want to slice the table? It looks lke the sword equivalent of HL2s gun demo where you shot the barrels and they fell down that trap with realistic physics.
