Former Sony Europe boss, David Reeves, says that Sony needs to release the often-rumored PSP2 soon if they want to compete in the handheld market with Nintendo. Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, the current Capcom Europe COO states:

“It’s an exciting time and you could possibly have two handhelds coming out within months or a year of each other. I’d like to the think it would be for the publishers and developers and consumers. Sony tried to make the transition with PSPgo, I think that changed some consumers’ attitudes, but they need to come back with something on PSP pretty quickly to stay in the game because Nintendo are s*** hot at getting these things right. And they always get these things right.”

A lot of us were expecting a PSP2 unveiling at this week’s E3, but, unfortunately, it didn’t happen. What we got is a shinny new 3D enabled handheld from Nintendo, that created a lot of buzz in the industry and could potentially kick down the PSP even further down the drain.
