Yea, little deviants is the only thing I’ve seen that uses the back panel and it’s also one of the only original titles. Thanks for the high-quality Gamespot vid, it looks really interesting.

Considering the PS3/PSP connectivity was limited to “buy games” or “Play games on screen”, i wonder if they will add more with the NGP. That is the thing i am more interested in watching with this then the consoles themselves

Kojima has talked about the “cloud” and how that will play into his plans (and plans in general for the NGP) and Sony is rumored to be adding cloud storage for save files in firmware 3.6 so I really wouldn’t be surprised if the connectivity between the PS3 and NGP is absolutely amazing. I would easily pay $30 more if I could buy both versions of a single game (like for Tekken or something) and take it everywhere with me.
Bundling PS2 games with PSP counterparts was something they planned before the PSP launched but that never worked out. Hopefully this time around it won’t be just a pipe dream…

I’m not sure where I stand on the NGP vs 3DS. I’ve had a DS but only because it was 2nd hand and cheap and it was a bit of fun but more just a timewaster for me. I tried my friend’s PSP and again it never really grabbed me.
I’ve had a go of a 3DS and to me it’s just alot of rehashing the same old games with updated features like Nintendo loves to do, along with 3D. But it’s just another marketing gimmick. I don’t care if a game is in 3D or not if it’s a good game. I know it’ll still sell loads as the DS has a wide fanbase.
I had a check at some of the planned games for the NGP and I see alot of the same games just being remade or games that don’t interest me at all. What I get from it all is if you like the DS, you’ll get a 3DS. Or if you like the PSP, you’ll get an NGP.
Another great video though. It really shows that you research your subjects well!

This has sure changed since your rant about the NGP now VITA device eh. Some of your concerns are now moot.
