PSP Fanboy reader Michael sent us the opening for Ape Escape Racer and while it looks to have the playfulness that embodies the series, it got me thinking. Why is it that the PSP has yet to receive a proper new Ape Escape game. Just like Nintendo home consoles don't get proper Pokemon games, the PSP has yet to get a proper new Ape Escape game. It's not that we haven't gotten plenty of Ape Escape games, just the opposite. Between a port of the original Ape Escape, the mini-game Ape Escape Academy 1 & 2 and Ape Escape Racer, the PSP has been home to many a simian adventure. Where is my new Ape Escape platformer though? I realize the system doesn't have the ability to do the series trademark dual-stick gameplay, but adjustments can easily be made. Am I the only one looking for a new monkey tale?
[ Thanks Michael ]
Where is our proper new Ape Escape game?

I'd love a new, REAL, Ape Escape game but the devs probably failure if they were to put a game on the PSP since their last game didn't sell as well as the others.

Ape Escape isn't a good game. Let's not forget the PSP remake:

[b]You know, Sony Europe will release a game named "Ape Escape Quest" in Europe next month and it can't be either of the Academy titles, because those are already out[/b]
