Senior VP of PlayStation’s brand marketing Guy Longsworth recently said in an interview with Gametrailers that we’ll be seeing some titles from all of Sony’s studios. “You’ll see a number of games coming out from all of our studios,” said Longsworth.
However, Naughty Dog’s comm manager Arne Meyer is saying otherwise. The award-winning studio behind Uncharted currently has no plans for the handheld system.
“We’re not working on anything for PS Vita,” Meyer explained in a NeoGAF post. “I won’t say never, ever, but there’s no plans for it right now — we’ve always felt that consoles play to our strengths as a studio the best.”
Maybe Naughty Dog might change their plans in the future. The current Uncharted title for the Vita, Golden Abyss, certainly stars the studio’s frontman Nathan Drake, but is being developed by SCE Bend Studio, and not Naughty Dog themselves. They are, however, overseeing the inner workings.
“I hate to sound like a treading the line spin-meister here, but I’ve said that tradtionally consoles have played to our strengths — and desires to push the utmost limit of resources and memory, our tech, and engine,” Meyer added after some further discussion. “That can change with the right handheld, as why I said I won’t ever say ‘never’ but we hadn’t encountered that yet.”
