Naughty Dog Would Love To See Uncharted Hit The PSP.

Naughty Dog’s president Evan Wells has told Joystiq that there is a lot of story to tell in the Uncharted universe, and he’d love some of that story to hit the Playstation Portable.

Speaking this week at GDC, Wells said:

“I think it would be fantastic to see the game (move) onto a handheld system,” Wells told Joystiq. “Each one of the episodes is sort of like a standalone thing and I think we could do that pretty easily. If we can find a partner to work with, I’d love to do that … we definitely wouldn’t do it ourselves. We’re trying to just focus on the PS3 technology and platform right now.” He added, laughing, “But, if we can’t find a partner, then maybe we’re going to have to find a budget ourselves.”

We’re all for it Evan! Get on the phone to Ready At Dawn… Or get to work on it yourselves. Either way, we’d love a pocket-sized Uncharted engine.

Blimey. Drake and crew won awards for Game of the Year, Outstanding Achievement in Game Direction, Outstanding Achievement in Visual Engineering, Outstanding Achievement in Original Story and Outstanding Achievement in Sound Design, and more.
