Sony Hints At PSP Delay

Sony Computer Entertainment network systems chief Izumi Kawanishi has become the first Sony official to admit that the PlayStation Portable may miss its intended December release date in Japan this year. Speaking with Impress AV Watch, Kawanishi admitted that a release this year would be partially dependent on whether game publishers could have enough software ready for launch. Since virtually no game was more than 50% complete at the recent Tokyo Game Show, this could be a tacit admission that the console will not be released anywhere in the world until 2005.
