Sony Demands $188,000 from Lik-Sang by Nov. 1

Here's an idea, Sony. Why don't YOU pay the judgment awarded to Immersion Technologies before you start demanding court fees from everybody else? *******s.

Um why would people buy a japanase psp anyways? A european would b better?

The Japanese PSP was available earlier than in Europe and it has a superior LCD screen (Sharp rather than Samsung).... Other than that its exactly the same as all other PSPs! (I have a Japanese 1.5 myself )

I live in the UK. Its a huge pain in the ass now because they are going to be strict on other sellers in Asia and around the world.

I use a Canadian retailer for my U.S Imports and Play-Asia although they dont sell PSP related items to the European Union because of Lik-Sang.

I'll be really bothered if I can't import the great Japan and North American only releases such as Street Fighter III Third Strike which aint available for the UK PlayStation 2, SNK's Fighting games which are released in Japan and other kick ass titles.

If PS3 is region free, that will be great. I am however still getting a European PlayStation 3 because it is a pricy piece of kit and if it breaks, I can get it replaced easily.

My PSP however is Japanese (1.5) and I'm not too bothered if it breaks as I know a repair person near my house who fixes PSP's so theres my cover plus it isnt as expensive as the PlayStation 3.

I personally wouldnt want to import a PS3 as the shipping could be expensive, the console's price will inflate when they are available and I dont want it to break coz if it breaks, It aint covered and loads of money would have gone towards a few hours of entertainment and then a broken PS3.

But onto the subject, its a shame Lik-Sang are out of business, I used them quite a lot but hey Business is Business I guess.

**** Sony!! I bought my psp for one thing only, emulation. I've owned 1 original psp game since launch (GTA) and that was sold when I no longer needed the disk to boot up homebrew (2.6 down to 1.5).
They're moaning about continued poor psp sales yet they've just shut down one of the busiest import game sites? Nice move $#@!heads, way to keep them sales falling!
