Yesterday news broke on Nintendo's next hand held console, the Nintendo 3DS, and today Sony told IGN that they are not following that with a PSP 3D. "Our focus on 3D right now is on the console. There's a tremendous amount of opportunity on Playstation 3 with 3D", Sony's John Koller said. "The amount of interest in 3D from the retail side and game publishers is off the charts. We know we have a hit with 3D on PS3 and we're going to concentrate our efforts there."

He also seemed pretty sceptical of the whole thing, and added that he thinks that "it remains to be seen where Nintendo goes with 3D on a portable. Having been in the portable space for quite awhile, I think it's an interesting move but one I'd like to see where they go from a demographic standpoint. 8 and 9 year-olds playing 3D is a little bit of a stretch given where some of our research is right now."
