The PSP's been getting a lot of flak since last year. I often hear the questions "where are all the games?" and "what the hell is Sony doing?" (I mostly hear it from you guys :p.) Maybe these words from Laurent Benadiba, CEO of Smack Down Productions, can give some insight on the situation. At least, from a developer's point of view.

For the rest of us who couldn't make it to the 2009 Jump Festa, here's a little taste of what went on during the event. Check out the PSP games for Capcom, SCEJ, Koei, and Square Enix with their infamous Closed Mega Theater. Details after the jump.

Play Arts was able to bring their Square Enix figurines for display in the Jump Festa event in Japan this weekend. While the Mega Closed Theater is remaining very much closed (without any leaks so far, mind you), we're off to the display cases. Check 'em out - it's the Dissidia folk and some Kingdom Hearts peeps, but more importantly, there's Lightning from FF13 as well as some girl-to-girl action with the Shiva motorcycle.

Expecting to see some new footage for FF13, yes? Wanting some slight hint or clue that Square Enix is actually making progress since the E3 and DKS trailers? Well, good news is that the Jump Festa event in Japan is coming soon. The bad news is that the woe-of-woes Square Enix Closed Mega Theater will make its presence felt.

[insert collective sigh here]

Jump Festa '09 is drawing closer, with only but a couple of weeks to go before the event unfolds. Square Enix is making sure that you'll be dropping in as they prepare a hefty lineup of goods to show for you.
