Try not to use arguments that can be used against yourself when you attempt to flame something

Just a tip.

Has Sony even used removable flash media as primary game storage? No, I didn't think so. It's a step back for them.

If you have 999.99 plus 6% for sales tax laying around, you can already pre-order the NGP at gamestop.com

No sarcasm, that's the estamated price.

 

[sightlight]

Because Gamestop is retarded. That's not the estimated price at all, they just put some random amount.

Wow 3G it's so ........ well pointless, for me anyway, there just going to charge for it and what can we use it for, playing laggy online games when were out? Searching the web? Millions of other devices can do this, lots of people these days have smart phones that do it.

And Portables are meant to be portable so you can actually say fit in your pocket and play on the go? And I can assure everyone the battery life on this will be terrible with higher end games

In short they just want a PS3 with a battery? Pointless in my opinion, at least Nintendo have kept it portable and added something different ( unique? ) and exciting

Yoshida said it wouldn't exceed $599.

You have a weird way of defining a portable

By your definition, a laptop isn't a portable computer.

3G isn't meant for online gaming on-the-go, but it'll be nice to be able to still check leaderboards, update your trophy status in real time, send messages back and forth from your PSN friends, etc.

It'll be portable. And battery life is, according to Sony, "about the same as the PSP", which can range from a couple of hours to 10 hours, depending on what you're doing.

What makes 3D more exciting than better graphics? It adds no gameplay advantage (outside of halving your framerate) and is basically just a graphics enhancer... Like getting better graphics. I don't really care if a system does little in its successor than better the graphics and controls. As long as it gets good games then I don't really care.

599!? XD
That's extremely overpriced imo. I didn't expect it to be cheap because it's sony.. but 599? (okay, it's a max, but seriously since it wouldn't exceed that price... I expect it to be 550?)


But really.. the specs on that thing are SICK.
There aren't even tablets with that kind of specs (except for the custom tablet with the i5 and 4GB ddr3 ram and stuff I don't remember

)
And sony comes with this..
Seriously? Those games will look like ps3 quality..
I want one... But I don't have the money for one x[. Heck I don't even have enough money for a 3ds.
(though I just bought a new pc

)

I swear, the literacy rate here is dropping. People see "599" and go "OMG THATS THE PRICE". He said it wouldn't exceed that and that'd it'd be affordable. I'll guess around $300 myself, as they have reported that they'll probably be losing a profit on its production cost.

You set the literacy curve for this place.

And that isn't saying much.

edit: what I'm trying to say is, they've always been this low.

I can agree.

Also, there will be multiple SKU's apparently. One with Wifi, and another with both. So that's probably $300-350 right there. That's affordable.

It's kinda reminding me of the GameGear in size. I think i'll stick with the 3DS it's more portable and better supported.




UpDate: the Gamegear's Length was 209mm
PSP2 Length:182mm

Oh hell no, I'm not paying $1000 for that, better drop it to $600-$700.

 

[PeregrinFig]

Edit: Argh, I was (unsurprisingly) beaten to it, it seems.

 

[sightlight]

*See's the price, re-pre-orders 3DS*

 

[Law]

"Actual Price to be determined" in giant fucking letters but that just flies over people's heads because FUCK SONY

 

[MrDiesel]
