If you actually read anything, the battery time is about the same as the PSP. For gaming probably 4-5 hours, but it can last up to 10 hours on less intensive stuff.
Law was nice enough to point out that the battery life is comparable to what the approximated 3DS battery life is (which is apparently 3-5 hours). So if you're gonna criticize the battery on this, go say the 3DS has a shitty battery too.
It's still unconfirmed on whether it'll have an easily removable battery like the PSP 1000-3000.

Considering the pictures I've seen so far, I'm betting on "No, it will have the same type of battery as the Go"
Could you guys point out the source to the Battery Life. When I went to bed last night, I heard they closed the event before stating anything about the Battery life.
No actually i am just comparing the two. I have had the problem with my DS vs PSP on which i prefer to pack with me at times. They both have good points and bad ones. I am just wanting to just get one system this time around.Guild McCommunist said:

That should cover all of my importing needs, makes me want this more and Sony at least had the liberty of having an alternative (Wi-Fi only version) in case of region lock and I'll have to do the same thing as 3DS. I'll give them credit for this. Although I'm concerned about some of the companies (Nippon Ichi, D3, Atlus, Enterbrain) since this will be released after July that they'll be hit hard by Ishihara's bill 156 (It covers video games).
So, again Sony releases a ridiculously overpowered system that is going to cost a fortune (Unless Guild still thinks it will be under 250, like he did in the 3DS vs PSP2 thread...lol) and really do nothing new but look pretty. Obviously they haven't learned anything from the PS3.

You mean, just like the 3DS?mysticwaterfall said:
OH SNAP SON.
Really, if you're going to troll, you can do better than that.
If this is anything like what happened when I bought a PS3 and PSP, there won't be shit for me to play on it.
well all i can tell ya buddy, is the 3ds is not much better in my book on the starting titles. by way quit trying to troll will ya.silverbullet1080 said:

Not necessarily trolling - I had a similar problem when I received a PSP at launch for a gift. There was very little on it, and what there was simply wasn't for me. I had a similar problem with the PS3, but as it was also a gift, I was lucky enough to receive Marvel Ultimate Alliance as well, which was decent fun with the family.
Of course, later on more games came out that I liked, so I repurchased a PSP here and my sister received the slim PS3 for her birthday, so we have stuff to play. But I can see the concern for launch titles. Though I'm sure the launch of this system will have more interesting titles than the PS3 and PSP launches - it doesn't take much to beat Blazing Angels and Ridge Racer 7.

Not even trying to troll. Do the games look really nice? Yes, without a doubt - Better then Wii and 3DS games, not quite PS3. Is the screen truly gorgeous? Yes. Does the OS look far more polished then the 3DS OS? Again, yes. So I will freely admit at first glance, the system is amazing from a technical standpoint.
When you add all this stuff up though, it gets really expensive for something that, besides the new touch controls, doesn't change too much in terms of games. Is the concept of a portable near PS3 cool? Yes. Is it worth costing more then a PS3 will? That's debatable. The fact that they still make PS2 games shows that a of people didn't feel it worth it to upgrade to the PS3 at it's until recently, extremely high price point. I feel this will go the same way, and after the initial rush of hardcore, technogeeks, etc, will fall into the same rut the psp did.
Now, to get the, "We all jnow you're getting a 3DS" stuff out of the way, yes, I'm getting a 3DS. Why? Because I think the 3D effect in the palm of my hand is really cool, and if nothing else, something at least new. Could it turn out to be gimmicky (and in some cases, pointless) in the long run like motion controls? Perhaps. But to me, I'll take something new over simply better graphics anyday.
So yes, those are my opinions. An overpowered system which at the end of the day, brings little new to the table we haven't seen before, barring graphics upgrades, which will easily cost $400.
They will release it for 250$, Im pretty sure about this, so they can get the people which wanted to buy an 3DS, even if they lose 100$ - 150$ per unit, it could be Sony's chance to get even causal players.
Nintendo made a big mistake to not release the 3DS Christmas 2010.
Personally I will give both a chance, Im sure both will sell pretty well, even though 3D without glasses is for me a more important feature than a portable ps3.

I doubt they'll release it for $250. Sony is known for selling cutting edge tech at a premium, which is justifiable.
They won't sell it at $250 because they'll lose too much money and then even more when their forced to lower it even more.
My estimate is in the $300-400 range, with a ~$250-300 price range with in 2-3 years.
I really am not that excited about the device, to be honest. The 3DS just seems a little big more innovative than this.
Not that this looks bad. On the contrary, it looks absolutely stunning. I wonder how the final product will come out. I hope it doesn't break the 400 dollar limit though.
Not a must-buy for me, but those Nintendo-haters must be drooling right now.

Maaaannnn if they price it at 200 they would flat out kill nintendo. But I'm gonna go ahead and guess it'll be 300+ because of what their one guy said.... Yoshida said. "but I hope that when we announce the price, people will say it makes sense."

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
