Well if this system had looked good I was thinking about getting one. It was just leaked.

Uh, no thank you. That is one ugly piece of hardware!

This is better thant the thread of mine.

Also I saw this.

43% lighter than previous versions
3.8" screen

Smaller screens... And wow is that system just plain ugly!

I merged both topics. I definitely will not be buying one of these things, I'll stick to my PSP-2000.

no touch screen? if not then FAIL

does it still have a UMD slot?
what is the price?

where is the second analog ~~stick~~ nub? they have the room now, so why not include it.
did they still stick with mem-sticks? if yes then FAIL (the new SE phone uses microSD)
SDcard won, Sony should just accept that and conform to standards.

edit; No UMD and that youtube clip has the first footage of LBP PSP

It looks terrible. Why would anyone want this? A larger screen is only going to make the games look worse.

No UMD slot, no price point announced, yes to Micro memory sticks(Sony will always stick to their own standards), no second nub.

The point of the PSP Go is if people don't want to deal with UMDs and just download games and content. In Qore the Sony rep said that this is NOT replacing the PSP-3000.

Okay so this means that Sony still isn't marketing to Nintendo's audience. They've essentially decided to keep their own market. I bet piracy is wicked locked on this thing.

Till next-gen Sony. Expect a more casually marketed handheld later on.

And the Gameboy and DS co-exist in the same market too.

They should just get rid of the UMD slot on the regular PSP, instead of making this ugly piece of ****.

Wow, it IS fugly. Yuck.
What were the designers at $ony thinking?!

And thus the Pirates win.

Sony encourages piracy.

I bet piracy is wicked locked on this thing for about a week.

Fixed.

I hope this will drive down the price of a used PSP-3000. I wouldn't mind picking one up for cheap in order to play homebrew and the hand full of games I'm interested in (FFT, Mega Man Powered Up & Maverick Hunter, Castlevania Dracula X)

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #14 on:** May 30, 2009, 08:32:03 PM »

So when you combine this and the PS3 Slim, you get Failtron: Defender of the Profit Loss?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #15 on:** May 30, 2009, 09:57:56 PM »

Sony's third pillar.

The ashetics feel off. It seems unbalanced, like the screen would be too heavy. I wonder what the price point will be.

Deguello · « **Reply #16 on:** May 30, 2009, 10:20:47 PM »

Why is the screen still open to the elements? Seriously, copy Nintendo's clamshell design, it just makes sense.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #17 on:** May 30, 2009, 10:24:59 PM »

Nintendo's design isn't as cool as the immensely more popular and more successful iFoan.

It's just my personal opinion, but I actually don't like the clamshell design of the DS.

I agree in regards to aesthetics, but supposedly it weighs less than the DSi.

Why would anyone want to buy this machine when they probably already have something they can download games onto? Anyone who wanted a portable gaming system will buy a "real" one, such as a DS or regular PSP.

Adrock · « **Reply #20 on:** May 31, 2009, 01:34:29 AM »

I don't think it looks ugly. The lack of a UMD drive basically makes it useless to me though. Sony should have kept the UMD drive even though its pretty obvious why they got rid of it (battery life, size etc.).

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #21 on:** May 31, 2009, 01:54:26 AM »

It's only ugly when the Dpad is out, that whole button layout is terrible.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #22 on:** May 31, 2009, 02:20:18 AM »

Why the hell does it slide instead of fold? Folding means the screen is protected when it's closed, sliding just invites scratches. Oh, right, the PSP is designed for looks, not usage.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #23 on:** May 31, 2009, 02:47:29 AM »

You know I bet this does have a touch screen. just a hunch.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #24 on:** May 31, 2009, 04:54:54 AM »

Your probably right every portable has one these days.
