Sony's fight to re-gain lost ground


If rumors are to be believed, Sony is looking to expand the value of its upcoming (NGP) console by simultaneous retail and digital videogame releases. According to popular site Eurogamer, “NGP is a developer’s dream—Sony is finally doing the things developers have been crying out for for years. Sony is also planning to unveil more details about NGP at Gamescom , Europe's largest Gaming expo. It's true to say that NGP a.k.a psp2 has ps3 level graphics, but will consumers buy NGP(Next Generation Portable) as handheld gaming market is bleeding at the moment . According to leading market research , Apple iOS devices such as iphone & ipads has become a challenger to  market leader  DS followed by PSP. If Sony wants to succeed over 3DS (Nintendo's upcoming glass free 3D handheld console), they must price NGP as par with 3DS .One of the biggest worries for Sony is to retain third-party developer support for NGP, as they had a bad experience with last generation PSP.
