wait isnt 1seg only in japan? why should i care?
I bet some one will modify one of these to fit the original
PSP hackers are legendary
wow this is REALLY OLD NEWS! the tv was announced over three weeks ago at e3..(gamespot) and even then they said it would only work in jp. if u by this outside of jp ur buying a paperweight...like my ps3.
Hold on there isn't an expected release for USA for the TV tuner at all?
Even though I may never find use for one of these, if SONY starts releasing accessories, games, etc. that are exclusive to the "SLIM" PSP, it is a big slap in the face insult to the millions of current PSP owners.
Seriously, if SONY wanted to release a new generation of PSP's, they should have made a PSP2 or something. However, when they release a PSP with minor changes and then expect everyone with the current PSP to run out and spend more money on essentially the same thing, its not really looking too good in the eyes of the consumer.
I'm getting a PSP Slim but only to keep it and save it for use with homebrew if it is ever cracked/exploited.
agreed, it was posted here thereabout 3 weeks ago tooQuote:

btw guys, the allies won WWII too, just in case you didnt know
:eek:
It'll get worse if there's more memory in it then it will be used,
so more and more games will require that memory.
Otherwise there's no reason for imporiving it.

Nintendo released the Gameboy Pocket after the Gameboy, the Gameboy Advance SP after the Gameboy Advance, and the DS Lite after the DS. And how many accesories from earlier versions of these game systems fit newer versions? Seriously, there are plenty of consumers who happen to love Nintendo even after making these boneheaded moves, while SONY gets a bit more bad publicity for doing once what Nintendo has been doing just once. That does not seem fair to me at all.
And I say that as a Nintendo fan boy, for crissakes.
Now that I have gotten that off my chest, I still do not agree with the practice of phasing out older versions of a game system and forcing people to purchase a newer version with only a few differences for full price. I mean, the game system manufacturers are supposed to be entertaining us, not attaching strings to us and pulling them to make us dance for them (pardon the silly metaphor).
And yes, it would be a total insult to everybody if SONY did release games that are exclusive to the slim PSP.
"I'm getting a PSP Slim but only to keep it and save it for use with homebrew if it is ever cracked/exploited."
Er...isn't that just playing into SONY's hands? I mean, if you do not desire to purchase a slim PSP for the few added features it carries then there is no need to rush out there and do so right away until it is cracked.
At the moment the slim PSP is cracked people can go to the store and pick it up before SONY flashes an updated firmware onto it. it would take quite awhile for SONY to visit every single store around the world, recall every single PSP, and flash the latest firmware onto them.
You are better off setting aside the money for your slim PSP and keeping it in your bank account until the system is cracked. Who knows, by then the price might have gone down a little bit and there would be some added features and accessories that would make the system worth purchasing.
well
there not forcing anyone to buy the new one
this is more for people who havent gotten one yet, to maybe make them finally want to purchase one
not for current PSP owners
just the the 360 elite, for people who havent bought one yet
I love this sentence!!
I hope our hackers will still release their programs with support for the old PSP. Some kind of resistance to show Sony that the old PSP is far from being outdated!Quote:
