Then, hopefully, the platform will actually get enough interest so that people will make a game specifically for it,&#8221; Perry said.He referred to the recent PSP Slim and Lite remodel as a &#8220;head in the sand&#8221; move.<\/p>\n<p>As for what current PSP owners will do with their UMDs if Sony turns to a download-only handheld, Perry said that it would be fairly trivial to include software to validate that a user owns a certain game, much like iTunes.
