Sony Butchers the PSP Minis, Takes Aim at the iPhone

Early today, Justin Cooney of Sony North America confirmed that it will be removing features it initially touted for the PSP Minis platform such as wireless multiplayer functionality, downloadable content for games and the ability to offer downloadable patches. All this is being down in order to speed up the approval time for games developed for the PSP Mini platform. The original idea of the PSP Minis was to offer an iPhone style apps platform to game developers for the PSP. With more robust features the the iPhone platform can offer, the PSP Minis have been eagerly anticipated by the PSP crowd. Now, there does not appear to be much of a difference between the platforms and only time will tell whether the incentives to develop for the PSP market are really there.via Gamasutra
