Pornos On PSP

Sunday 19 June 2005 @ 4:37 am

After almost two months I posted the news regarding Playboy Enterprises Inc will offer nude content on Sony PSP including photo galleries and videos shot that edited specifically for the PSP. Friday, June 17, 2005, sources say, at least eight pornographic videos will go on sale in Japan exclusively for the PSP.

Quoted:
A Tokyo-based sex-video maker declared on its website that on July 8 it will release the world’s first adult UMDs, optical discs that play on a PSP. The five titles carry price tags from 2,800 yen or 3,800 yen (25 or 35 dollars).

Another Tokyo company will launch three titles on July 16.

Sony said it had no power to stop the release of the PSP porn videos, even though Sony had shared the specifications for UMDs which do not need approval by the company, unlike PSP game titles which are all licensed. It is also up to the porn video makers to decide will they impose regional restrictions, such as blocking users from playing videos released in Japan on PSPs bought abroad.

Anyway, Sony Computer Entertainment spokesman Koichiro Katsurayama dismissed any idea that Sony saw porn as a commercial boost for the PSP, much in the way that adult titles helped spread videocassette players in the 1970s and 1980s.
