Zenrin has offered a Portable Game with GPS function, why not? Zenrin was reknown with their mapping technology with 60 years mapping experiance. Zenrin was founded in 1948 Beppu, Oita Prefecture of Japan by Masatomi Osaka as a publisher of tourist maps, with the 60 years experience boasting a wide range of maps for various purposes that cover an amazing 99% of Japan centering on residential maps, original computerized mapping technologies and unrivaled know how in the digitalization of maps, ZENRIN has emerged as a leader in the industry.
In addition to maps, ZENRIN possesses a strong market share in map software, in-car navigation software and related IT services. Moreover, ZENRIN has expanded its opportunities overseas with offices in the U.S., Europe, China and Taiwan, further extending the already expansive cartographic database.
Therefore Zenrin relaesing a new Portable Game console with GPS functionality is a good idea and we don’t have to doubt with thier products, it will giving you a lot of help when you are lost directions, especially in Japan. At the Zenrin GPS app for PSP allows the map view in 2D mode but it automatically switches into 3D mode when arriving to a complex intersection to provide detailed models of the surrounding and a clear path.
