Slitherine Software still believes in the PSP

Great Battles of Rome - Image 1 UK independent games developer and publisher Slitherine apparently still believes in the PSP. In an interview with GamesIndustry, Marco Minoli of said company expressed their confidence in the Sony handheld describing it as a "huge opportunity" for them.

Said Minoli, "To be very honest nobody's looking at the PSP as a huge opportunity at the moment, and I really think there is a huge opportunity out there. I've seen sales charts for some territories now and a top ten PSP game sells more than a top ten Nintendo DS game."

There's reason for them to be optimistic about their games on the PSP. After all, their Great Battles of Rome game, made in association with The History Channel, sold the most for the said handheld, despite the franchise having a solid PC fanbase.

To be honest, the PC version of the History Channel game was the least-performing one, because we already had our core audience from previous games, and if I look now at the success of the game itself, the PSP version gave us the best results. That's why we really keep pushing the PSP now, it's perfect for us, for our strategy of history and strategy.
