Rumour - PSP 3000 Might Feature DualShock 3 Support

***wraggster*** · August 28th, 2008, 22:52

A Best Buy tipster informed Max-Console that the upcoming PSP 3000 will feature support for the PS3s DualShock 3 controller. The tipster also noted that it will use 480i composite cables to play games on the TV instead of component 480p. Obviously, this is just a rumor—but it is definitely one I want to believe.

(also a word of advice, the site named has previously posted fake emulator news so take with a pinch of salt)

Yea, that would be a cool feature.

I'm glad Sony didn't steal the idea from the homebrew community like they do everything else.

The comment wasn't aimed at hardware just ideas, but if you want, the TV-Out device for one.

Just ideas.

Dualshock via the homebrew community.

There was also TV via homebrew before sony did it.

Just about every feature on the PSP that wasn't included with firmware 1.5, started from homebrew that sony copied.

bleh tv output has been the "idea" since the cream and spinach gameboy

and most of the implemented features of late were already planned, i remember glancing at prototype psp's with google on the screen ... i hardly doubt you can claim stealing from already defined and widely used technology's

just because the home brew community did it first doesnt mean sony stole the idea of a computer device with a web browser, or a game console with a controller
