If I'm not mistakened, that's clearly footage of KHBBS on a white PSPgo. Does that mean that it will really be on PSN?

If BBS is going to be on the PSP Go, then I'm totally getting one. It's the main reason I wasn't going to get a Go.

Might be looking into it too much. No announcement of it going to be on PSN.

The funniest part of this topic is that this question is being asked on pretty much every PSP and Kingdom Hearts message board there is out there. There was an article on the Kingdom Hearts Insider website quoting Tetsuya Nomura saying that BBS will not be on the PSPgo. There is also a poster on the Playstation forums saying that there are piracy issues making BBS impossible to be put on the PSN, due to the code only being able to be read by a UMD drive.

Compounding the fact is that Sony cannot force third-party developers to put their games on the PSN, and it seems like those Go owners who want Birth By Sleep will have to switch to a UMD model.

Plus there is this link: http://us.playstation.com/games-and-media/games/kingdom-hearts-birth-by-sleep-psp.html

Says UMD only.

Oh well. Too bad my 2000's UMD Drive got busted again, might as well get another "backup PSP" for these UMD-only games.

no. Thats clearly a video of footage simulated on a pspgo. same thing with the video of Ace Combat Joint Assault. Is the first Ace Combat on PSN? no, will they put the next Ace Combat on there? Probably not either. There's already plenty of reports/rumors that KHBBS will not be released digitally, and only on UMD. But we'll have to wait and see. Same thing with Ace Combat, I dont think it'll be on the PlaystationStore. I would rather buy a game on SALE or USED than pay FULL price for a digital version anyways.

Further proof that it won't be on the Go.

Word. It's been known for a looooong time now that most Go users are not going to get what they want, and that they should have probably bought a UMD model if they wanted to avail themselves of truly great games like "Ace Combat X" because it's never coming to PSN... With Kingdom Hearts there is way too much high-power corporate nonsense between Disney being involved (they are aggressive at protecting their licenses, to put it mildly) and the flagging sales from day-one on the Go hardware.
