"There is no PSP2" says Sony

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has shot down alleged 'leaked' information on a PSP2, saying flatly "There is no PSP2".

Reports hitting the internet yesterday featured a supposed image of a new version of the handheld, saying the codename for the machine is Cobalt.

Reports said it featured the likes of dual analogue thumbsticks, an improved display, an 8Gb flash drive, wifi and Bluetooth support and an in-built camera that lets users stream live video to PS3 over wifi. But it's all just wishful thinking, it seems.

Who's been having fun with Photoshop in their bedroom then?

When they say "There is no PSP2," they really mean "There are no designs, ideas, or prototypes for a second generation PlayStation Portable."

I knew there was no psp2. With sonys ps3 launch having been shaky in the us and japan, and the psps slowdown in sales, as well as the failure of umd which, in order to call the new handheld a psp2, would have to be used in psp2 led me to say in forum ( me and some friends get together and debate our views in the technology industry) to say that sony is going to be out of the handheld market for a while. let me put it this way, there will be a dual launch of the psp2 and ps4 some time in the future, by my speculation.

[voorheesda]

maybe psp2 isnt existing now, could still be plans for it.

[chrisrulz555]

Hopefully they hold off on it til 2009-10 and release a handheld that has the same if not more power than the original xbox. Imagine what could be done with something like that.

[snkrock25]

Of course they're researching a successor to the psp. Just like they're researching a successor to the ps3, and msoft is researching the follow up to 360 and maybe a handheld system, and likewise with nintendo and their systems. It's what smart companies do, they plan for the future. But just because they actively do research, doesn't mean something will be made into a finished product.

[Cloudhunter]

I still have faith in the original PSP yet, no need for PSP2 yet ;)

[Cloud_35]

that's a relief.


Ok I confess! It was me!

oh, really???

[Demolition49]

Well looks like DS crumpled PSP, even though i like nintendo PSP did seem superior... but Wii is superior to PS3.

[acn010]

oh well, ill save my money for my wii :)
