Datel, manufacturer of various peripherals for both home consoles and handhelds, will soon be releasing their Tilt FX product for the PlayStation Portable. This tiny device senses motion on a 3-axis basis and is confirmed to work with Need for Speed, Wipeout, and Loco Roco titles. Tilt FX will only be compatible with the older PSP models (sorry PSP Go owners).

Tilt FX is the first 3D motion control for the PSP:

Tilt FX sensor features a 3 axis high resolution MEMS sensor.

That's worth £15 any day, this thing might actually let me dig out my Psp and use a bit more because there's some crappy games that might be a bit more entertaining with this.

It seems one cannot use earphones while using the tiltfx. Too bad.

Yeah NEO's Motion Sensor was kinda half assed though, because they didn't provide continuous support and updates for newer games...on the Good side, I remember NEO's also worked with some homebrew. I hope Datel's does this as well.

its no different than tilt...if you read their website you have to "request" games to have added support....and they will only do it if they get enough requests.

Never know this could attract some homebrew developers back onto Psp, obviously that Neo version 3 years ago was never gonna get interest because no-one bought it, but Datel can sell enough to get some interest, even though Datel steal most of their ideas this is the kinda thing that shows how important they really are.
