The PSPgo hasn’t been selling well at all since it release. This may be due to the lack of UMD drive and having to download games of the PSN. But recent rumors have been surfacing that a possible UMD reader is in development from Logitech. While both Sony and Logitech USA have refused to comment on the report, the drive would enable PSPgo owners the ability to play the entire PSP library without the need to purchase new digital versions off the PlayStation Store.
CVG has an unnamed source telling the online mag that the upcoming drive add-on will plug into the PSPgo via the memory stick port on the left side. This will defeat the handheld’s overall concept of compacting the original design to better accommodate portability. “The only problem is that it’ll make the PSPgo a little bulky,” the source told CVG.
CVG contacted Logitech in the UK, however the company said that it didn’t know anything about the supposed drive, indicating that it may be something Logitech USA is working on.
Or maybe it’s not selling well because this is the first time I’ve even heard of it…
