I fully understand the decision, but I'm totally not down with this. Like, the game is meant for the DS. You use the stylus in the majority of the game, so how are they going to implement that into button controls? I know it could work, but it probably wont work very well. Still, PSP owners should be happy because Chinatown is an amazing game.

Wow. I doubt it will be as good without the touch control. A game thats better on the DS rather than the PSP? Sounds good.

The reason they are putting it on the PSP is because no one is buying it on the DS.

If they add voice overs, that might make me want to buy a PSP.

I don't see it being very good on the PSP as well. The PSP really is a completely different system from the DS. They really need to take advantage of the screen and graphics capabilities or else Chinatown Wars will be a joke compared to other PSP games. I mean, the people and cars are all 2D sprites.

And like you said, how the hell are they going to do this without a touch screen? Half of the time I was using the touch screen!

Ugh... Oh well, I'll just watch it fail.

I still think that some exclusives are safe...well, Nintendo games and Halo. >_>

I heard No More Heroes will be going to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and immediately thought about this thread. Nintendo sure is losing a lot of good exclusives right now. :(

If people bought the DS version they wouldn't port it.

I wonder why Chinatown Wars tanked? I mean, Grand Theft Auto is a huge brand name and the game was excellent. Plus there are, what, 100,000,000 DS consoles out there?

Maybe it was the dumb box art. :erm:

Every GTA has boxart like that. I actually really like the boxart of the GTA series.

But anyways, it didn't sell well because of a bunch of reasons:

1. Tons of Japanese people hate the GTA series, so it didn't sell well there, if at all.
2. Most DS owners in North America are kids, and it's an M-rated game.
3. No ads at all for it. Do you remember a commercial for it? I don't.

I know it isn't, I was just saying that because the game was terrible.
