A Good Handheld Month
February 3rd, 2009I played almost no handheld games for most of last year, as it wasn’t a very good time to be a DS or PSP owner. Fortunately, the schedule this month looks pretty solid: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon, Legacy of Ys, and Blue Dragon Plus are all coming out, with Loco Roco 2 on PSP. They may not all be winners, but at least there are still signs of life for the non-Japan based audience.
It’s ironic that the most successful gaming device, the DS, makes tons of money but gets so little recognition. That said, it may be simply a reflection of the fact that the titles coming out right now - of the Brain Age and cooking varieties - are simply dropping off gamers’ radars due to their subjects.
