Nintendo recently announced 3D portable gaming on their DS console, dubbed the “3DS”. You would expect Sony to pursue in a similar direction with the PSP console, however, SCEA’s Director of Hardware and Marketing John Koller said the company is only focusing on the 3D console space right now. “Our focus on 3D right now is on the console,” he said. “There’s a tremendous amount of opportunity on PlayStation 3 with 3D.”
Koller also questioned the announcement of the Nintendo 3DS, saying he wasn’t sure if there is a market for 3D handheld gaming with a younger audience. “I think it remains to be seen where Nintendo goes with 3D on a portable,” he added. “Having been in the portable space for quite awhile, I think it’s an interesting move but one I’d like to see where they go from a demographic standpoint. 8 and 9 year-olds playing 3D is a little bit of a stretch given where some of our research is right now.”
