Mario isn’t the only thing to die, as the PS3, Vita, and PSP stores are going away along with the idea of an in person E3 this year as it’s all going online. Usada Pekora has been thrown into VTuber Jail with a new outfit and she’ll probably be joined by Sonic the Hedgehog now that he’s started to carry a gun.  Disco Elysium: Final Cut also came out with a cool jacket that sold out almost as fast as the Sanrio Animal Crossing Amiibo Cards and the most important piece of news we could ever report on. That’s right Rose, Bloodborne Kart is real.

The post VGCC Episode 352: It Was Sonic And Friends That Did It appeared first on Gamesline.

For those who don’t wish to watch the video, the short of it is that Josh Stinson, associate video editor at Volition (and one of the best Let’s Players of all time, but I digress) stumbled upon a PSP dev kit with the game loaded inside. Stinson, community manager Mike Watson, and video producer Alexander Mejia pushed for the game to be showed off to the public, and after a lengthy discussion, convinced the highers-up to let the game see the light of day.

Flash forward to today, and the stream came and went, showcasing the game in all its unfinished glory. This would be nothing more than a neat blip in game preservation history, but then Volition did something awesome. They dumped the ISO.

Unseen64 is currently hosting the Saints Row: Undercover ISO on their website, which can be played using a PSP emulator. It is completely free, but be advised that the game is unfinished and will most likely be riddled with bugs and crashes. As Stinson points out in the video, this game could’ve been cast aside and lost to time if the dev kit it was on was thrown away. I wish with all my heart that more developers choose to preserve unreleased content in ways similar to this, so let’s hope they follow Volition’s example.

While the move seems to be specifically Japan-focused right now, it’s probably safe to assume that it won’t be long before the North American, European, and Australian storefront also closes. The move effectively ends the life-cycle of the PSP, and the PSP Go – which still enjoys substantial popularity in Japan. With the Vita having never reached the highs that it’s older brother did, it’s fair to wonder if this signals the beginning of the end for Sony in the mobile market.
