Thanks for your response Mike, and thanks to EnGhedi for articulating perfectly the motives of those of us expressing our disappointment here. While I accept your answer that publishers are not required to release content into every store, I also understand that SCEE are not powerless to influence this situation. Publishing agreements are entered into with input from both parties, so by not requiring (or otherwise incentivizing) publishers to release content across all SCEE territories, SCEE have in fact let us down. I imagine you will continue to field this question “every single week” unless something is done to address the imbalance.

I agree with relaxedcashew… there are a little few titles (I don’t blame you Mike), I blame Sony, they should had all done in the store before lauching the PSPgo (which is a great system, congrats)

Hi Mike,

I’ve been reading a few of the comments over the pages and noticed that you are always very helpful. I have just one simple question to ask – I am planning on buying a PSP Go, but am disappointed at the lack of content on the UK store at the moment (mainly PSP games).

I know you had a massive update with legacy UMD titles last week because of the Go’s launch, but are there plans on having similar-sized updates in the coming weeks for all the new Go owners? Because there are loads of games I’m interested in that just aren’t on the store right now, and for that reason alone the Go would be a bit of a pointless purchase for me.

Hi Mike, in response to your reply to #570

I don’t think the users that show their discontent here are aiming the responsibility for the lack of content towards you. And, even though I believe we all understand your explanation that the publishers are to be blamed for the lack or delay of content, our protests have the sole intention to 1) demonstrate our dissatisfaction since we have NO alternative, 2) request your best efforts to contradict this tendency and 3) make sure this isn’t forgotten because you guys don’t have access to all other stores, or if you do, you don’t visit them that often, which is perfectly understandable.

But, hey, like I said, we have no alternative, and much more than explanations, with all due respect, we just wanted some pressure on those publishers to make them realize we are complaining. And why do we ask for that pressure? Be sure we would make that pressure on the producers and developers, but they don’t care for our complaints saying we should complain lack of content to SCEE, not them… So who’s to blame? We’ve passed that coin tossing stage, I believe.

The last two are out tomorrow, so you’ll be able to get your hands on Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta – hillbilly mutants and aliens, what a fine mix

It’s been resubmitted for release into your store, should be available in the next couple of weeks.

I answer this question constantly (i.e. every single week); the publisher decides which stores to submit content to, we cannot force them to release content into every store, there can be varying reasons why they decide not to release in certain countries, but we are seeing content released into the majority of stores more frequently, however, this is not always the case.

Why have the Australian & New Zealand PSN Stores been short-changed? If SCEE don’t see fit to give us the same content as Europe, the LEAST they could do is offer us an explanation.

Why do we not have Tetris, for example?
