Talking to Kotaku, Mizrachi reminded that the rates of downloadable games on the PSP Go versus on the App Store follow a different rate schedule, particularly for smaller games. “The ESRB has a reduced fee of US$ 800 for games that have development costs under US$ 250,000, which would likely apply to virtually all PSP Minis.”
