Rumors for the PSP2 have been actively swirling for months, and it’s widely believed that the portable console will have a touchscreen on the underside. Despite denials by SCE, Netherrealm Studios executive producer Shaun Himmerick almost casually confirmed the fact that they have a PSP2 development unit.
We have a PSP2 in the house and we re looking at the engine, like what can it support. Always a big thing for us is the performance, said Himmerick. We’re running at 60 fps, what can we do and do we have to build all the art assets over. We’re definitely looking at them. PSP2 looks like it s a pretty powerful machine. We don’t have a 3DS system in house yet, but we’re looking to get one, and we’ll certainly look at what its power is.
