Where is our proper new Ape Escape game?

via pspfanboy

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?

yes totaly

i liked hitting monkeys over the head

oh well

not to sound to totaly negative or anything.. but this has to be one of the worst ideas for a game i have seen since...i dunno, i cant think of a lamer idea for a game. dont get me wrong i totaly loved ape academy but this is just crazy! what were these guys smoking when they thought "hmm instead of making a possibly cool ape escape game, lets deform our simian freinds into gay little racers....sounds freeking brilliant!"
