It seems like more and more Adventure Games are using online distribution as their main form of distribution (with tangible copies still available, but not quite as high a priority).

I've been reading a little about the PSP Go and it seems that they're doing away with the UMDs and instead all games will be downloaded. (It'll have a 16Gb drive and you'll be able to transfer them from a memory card or download them directly through WiFi or through a PS3). Correct me if I'm wrong about any of that.

I wouldn't go as far as to suggest that a PSP would be as good a format for the genre as either the Wii or NDS but I can't help but think it would be more appealing to developers using, or intend to start using, online distribution as a key feature of their business model than any competing console.

Thoughts?
