(Update)
Sony have officially announced the remaining 15 titles coming to the PlayStation mini . Here is the pictures taken direct from its source .
Now as previously stated before Sony may go a head and change a few of these titles for releases in different region . This i believe is for the north American release but it have not been stated yet that they will go head with changing some up.
Personally for me and a lot like other people i am existed for a lot of the titles but not for all. The ones i am not too excited about are , Intelligent Qube , Rainbow six , Resident evil DC and Syphon filter . For the younger gamer i can understand that video games in general have came a long way and may not appeal to them.
This console is more for the nostalgia factor and convenience. The one thing i can encourage the younger ordinance is to learn the history of where a lot of these great titles came from and the game play factor is still there. For example Super Puzzle fighter has great gameplay that not need to depend on the graphics to relay playable captivity. With all theses great titles on a small unit with the best video output souse is great this is one to not miss up on.
Comment bellow and tell me what are your favourite titles you are looking forward to.
