Katamari PSP bonus details News

PSP News by Tom Bramwell

19 December, 2005

The PSP version of Katamari Damacy includes a 2d side-scrolling mini-game version as a bonus, according to Famitsu.

The Me & My Katamari mini-game features graphics done up (or rather down) to resemble an 8-bit 2d game, although the idea remains the same - create a katamari by rolling it around.

Good news, then, for those of you hunting it down when it comes out in Japan this week on December 22nd.

Naturally the main game mode remains in 3d - and Namco's managed to recreate the PS2 games' dual analog controls by treating the d-pad and face buttons as a pair of d-pads instead, and mapping camera controls to the shoulders.

Apparently the plot of the game this time has to do with creating islands for homeless animals to live on. What does Phoenix Wright have to say about that? Let's see.

The controls does not sound awful, in fact with the rotation on the trigger buttons they seem perfectly fine. 1UP Preview

Like the others say, this will be a killer app for the PSP. I've got the game preordered from Lik-Sang. I don't care if it forces you to use 2.5 firmware, I bought my console to play commercial games. Homebrew was always just a bonus really.

So Katamari PSP 2D might look a lot like LocoRoco? :)

Except LocoRoco has that excellent and by excellent I really mean excellent puzzling element.

I thought this was coming out for the DS as well? Rolling the ball by touching it surely is more of a 'killer app?!
