There is no doubt the PSP is a very popular gaming system, but there is a problem that needs to be looked into right away—the PSP suffers from a content drought. There just isn’t enough content being released for the PSP to heat up operations. Right now, the handheld is admittedly rather cold.
However, the spirits aren’t doused one bit and our folks still look at the PSP phenomenon very positively. According to this post on pspfanboy, very recently, Scott Orr — the founder of D2C games — admitted in an interview that PSP is like a sleeping Giant and that the only thing it is waiting on is the input of quality content. This came about surprisingly after an earlier release from D2C did not fare well on the PSP.

“While porting over a budget title from the Wii is not really a clear indication of fully supporting the “sleeping giant,” it is good to see D2C putting something on the PSP. The company’s positive outlook does seem a bit surprising given that Orr himself admitted that D2C’s previous venture on the handheld did not fare too well in terms of sales. We’re talking about the digital comic The Cryptics.”
The company is also looking at ways to port some games from other consoles on to the PSP — although that might not be the best thing for PSP owners (original PSP dedicated games are often better), it still answers the drought question.
Lack of content is an issue but it is comforting to know that the effort is on and people seemed to have noticed the popularity of the PSP is soaring. It is only a matter of time now before we have some swashbuckling titles released for the insatiable bunch of PSP gamers.
