Playboy to Offer Content for Sony?s PSP - please note my comments inside!
 

Playboy Enterprises announced plans Wednesday to offer content specifically formatted for viewing on Sony's Portable PlayStation. Full Story

The interesting thing however... Some time ago I have suggested making some adult games for GBA (Game Boy Advance for the ones who don?t know). I'm a professional system programmer and I know well the GBA architecture so I can do VERY exciting games for it. However, when I suggested this at XBiz, the ppl. There told me "NO-NO!" The GBA is PRIMARY intended for kids, so Nintendo will never allow me to issue such a game... So Here is a question: isn't PSP also PRIMARY intended for kids?

Your opinions PLEASE!

thats what the kids need.. porn on a gaming console.

sounds great.

vids just need to be encoded to mp4... psp video 9 does that... hop on the wagon ppl!

cry. 678

Yeah. Because Leisure Suit Larry and Grand Theft Auto are games designed for kids.

If people think that games and consoles are designed only for kids these days, they have their heads somewhere else.

Might as well say that no adult will ever watch cartoons...D'OH!

Cyberxxx, that's a good idea. Run with it.

Nintendo is more a kids brand then Sony and Sony's Playstation line.

the majority of consumers are kids.

do you ever post anything usefull, you stupid turd ?

Yes the majority of consumers are kids.

The majority of movies on dvd and vhs are not adult movies. Does it mean that adult movies don't sell?

It's all about hitting the right niche. There is a certain niche where people will say "I'll play a smutty video game". And I'm sure that there are enough of them out there to turn a profit.

Actually I won't run into inything until I'll be sure it's completele legal thing. As about the tech. possibility, so I can make really good games for GBA, but... I don't want any troubles with Nintent. Is there is any BIG BOY who feel he could settle the legal side, I'll be happy to do some parthership biz with him. I'll make the games, we'll sell them FOR ADULTS and share the earnings. At least why the Adult Games are ok with mobile phones, and why they are ok with PSP??? At least GBA must more powerful for game gevelopment than ANY mobile prone...

Sure. But what about PSP? In't it mostly for kids as well? BTW, the comics are also intended for kids, but every adult-shop has a bunch of it for ADULTS.

So if any BIG BOY see this thread and he thinks he could help me with a legal side - my ICQ in profile.

A lot of games coming out these days are rated Mature so I think the mentality that these games are for kids is really starting to change.

dont think many adults will get excited over porn games.

they got the internet.

New Sensations and Digital Sin has already started the process about 3 months ago - Were stockpiling the content now to offer adult stores loaded DUO's. As it stands right now, you can stick any images and MP4 video on a PSP - Just drag and drop on your DOU card simple as that. So on that note I think Playboy was just looking to get a cheap press release lol

Porn Magazines, Adult Comics, Adult Games - these are completely different things.. They were selling BEFORE INternet and the are seling now.

"Do you want a Harley?"
"No, thank you I have a truck." :1orglaugh

Ok, once again. Is there any BIG BOYS there who'd like to do some parthnership biz with me? Just ICQ or email me. Perhaps it will bring you some additional millions... course if the legel side will be setteled...

The Sony Playstation 2 was primarily marked towards 18 - 30 year olds (with a focus on sports games) with the majority of ad placement in lad's mags (Maxim, FHM, Stuff)so I'm assuming that the PSP is as well.

Good job comparing porn video games to porn magazines, tard.


P.S.
Porn mags are doing pretty shitty these days. Only the strongest remain.

2DarkJedi: if you are traveling (by bus, subway, plane, train etc) do always have the i-net connection to play some adult flash games and strip or virtually fuck some cute chick? ;)

My dear tard, I just shown you that Internet is not a God for everything. As about the Mags, so they go pretty well even now. Some people like to watch, but others like to examine... Learn the market rules, if you want stay hard with this biz.

I don't play adult games at all because they are stupid and are not fun (much less while traveling.)

Anyway, looks like you've already figured everything out. Why ask for oppinions then ?

Don't get all freaked and get into a internet vs portable pissing match. Its not the end all to your money woe's - It's another rev source and in my book... The more rev sources the better. (i'm just never satasfied)

So what? I tell you some secret now. I even don't surf for adult websites, and I don't buy a membership to them. But some others do...

Not everything. I figured out only the tech side: I can make very good games for GBA (actually I knew that before to post this topic), but I haven't figured out the legal side of this. I.e. am I allowed to do this? Or why PSP and GBA so different in legal sense? That's why I posted this thread.

I think Nintendo has to license all their software developers. Plus I think they use cartridges again for the DS. I don't think there is any money to be made trying to produce porn for any Nintendo system.

The PSP might be a different story.

Um.... you guys are missing the point, and it doesn't have dick to do with a gaming console.

The device has access to the internet... therefore, it will have porn.

Same with mobile phones. All this talk about regulation is bs... The only way to prevent it is to prevent access to ALL sites outside the immediate control of the manufacturer, and manufacturers, liking money, aren't very keen on doing that in the long term.

Sony wants to dominate the mobile market with their PSP... they aren't going to shut it down because someone realized that web browsers can be pointed at porn sites *gasp!*

:2 cents:

cough - http://pornparadisegals.com/stuff/pskonpsp.jpg - internet on PSP

Why? Could you explain this?

BTW, making cartridges is very cheap process. I can produce them right at home.

Perhaps that's a eason. However I never contected Nintendo so I even don't know their point of view on this...

:thumbsup case closed.

The DS has been out longer than the PSP, and from what I understand there is still no way to even surf the web on a DS. While the PSP has already been hacked and you can surf porn and do many other things on it. Nintendo is keen on preventing this sort of thing, while Sony appears to be embracing it.

In the past Nintendo has even threatened to sue porn websites that simply mention their name. (such as the Suicide Girls case). There is no way they will allow porn on their system.

Nintendo has always considered its systems as being for kids. That's why when everyone else was designing CD systems, Nintendo stuck with their cartridges for N64.. Any games that get released for systems like Nintendo and Playstation, have to be APPROVED by those companies... And you have to pay them a license fee per unit. I doubt there's chance in hell you could get adult content out on a Nintendo system. I doubt Sony would be into having hardcore adult content for their system either.

Agreed. :yinyang

All I can say is, if you are waiting for someone else's approval of your ideas, you aren't going to get very far.
If you really have those talents, we'd be happy to give you some direction on what to do to help us make money!

Encoding is one thing, do you have a delivery avenue?

Healthier to look at that than killing things all the time on screen maybe :2 cents:
