InvizimalsandEye of Judgmentare looking like two hot PSP properties, using the portable system’s camera peripheral to either scan cards or hunt for invisible creatures. The only problem is, it’s looking like neither of them will work with the PSPgo, since the camera doesn’t fit on the redesigned machine.
The chaps working behind the cool-but-silly augmented reality gameInvizimalshas confirmed that its game will not work with the PSPgo at launch. The original PSP had the camera mounted on top of it, but the PSPgo’s sliding screen wouldn’t be able to move if the peripheral were attached. The developers are trying to find a workaround, but it won’t be ready in time for launch.
“The camera will work with the go with an attachment,” the devs have toldKotaku. “We are looking into it, but it’s a matter of logistics.”
This is, of course, the problem when you throw a complete redesign at people five years into a system’s lifespan. I do hope that the boxes forEye of JudgmentandInvizimalswill warn consumers that their games won’t work with the newest PSP.
