PS3 PSP remasters considered - Flonne - 2011-08-10

While is seems that Sony has already decided this is a bad idea for some godawful reason that only Sony will ever understand (or not), it's still a great idea. I would buy 10 copies of La Pucelle Ragnarok PS3 if I had to. And we all know how persistent people can get about things not happening (Legends 3 group is huge now even though they've told them twice that it's not gonna happen, and it's still getting bigger). Hopefully that 200+ page request thread on the NIS forums will convince them that it is a good idea, but convincing Sony that something is a good idea is like convincing Namco that porting certain things is a good idea.

Or telling Capcom that a remastered version of RE 1, 2 and 3 is needed.
Sony will NEVER make it. I know of no company that has ever made what the public wanted (In the videogames world).

I've been wanting a La Pucelle Ragnarok localization for a while now too. NIS seems hesitant on releasing PSP games in the west, so I hope PS3 remasters might get them to change their minds a bit, especially since I'm interested in a few of those Imagepoch titles. A Valkyria Chronicles 3 remaster would be nice too, since Sega said they don't have any plans on releasing titles if they're on the PSP

I'm actually unable to find any official proof of Sony refusing to do this other than a couple forum posts from a few hours after this announcement, anyone have any official response links? I would really like to believe it's just people making things up, but it really sounds like Sony...

It really does sound like Sony, but I won't believe it until I have solid proof. I wish they'd lighten up on some things besides this though, especially the whole VNs aren't games thing, I'll never see White Album or Im@s 2 in America ._.

im@s deserves a friggen port. They don't even have to dub it, because 100% of the people that buy it will not use the dub in the first place.

it's a response from the CEO of the company though, so I would take any "technical details" from a suit with a huge grain of salt.
aha, I found that article those forum posts were quoting.

They were quoting it out of context; they were not referring to the remaster editions in that press release, only the original versions were denied. So technically, unless I am missing something, there is no proof that Sony has said they won't take the remastered versions of these NIS PSP games.
