I know your technically from a commonwealth where English isn't a dominate language (although it's still there), but goddammit, speak English. I can barely make out half the crap you say.

What's with all these assumptions that Sony will overprice it. I'm assuming you're going to go "OH IT'S SONY THEY OVERPRICE EVERYTHING" but they're a smart company. They know how to go up against the competition. Remember the PS3 Slim? The PS3 was pretty out for the count in the console race and when the Slim came out, it skyrocketed PS3 sales. Even though they lost money on console sales for it (since it cost more to produce than it did to sell), they made all that money back and then some with software sales. Even if it does cost them money, they'll probably try to undercut the 3DS pricing. It's a perfect opportunity to anyway; the 3DS is seen as pretty pricey this generation, undercutting the price with a handheld that can boast higher power, higher resolution, and a ton of other stuff would be a really good kick in the pants to Nintendo.

I wouldn't see the PSP failed. Sure, software sold like garbage on it but it's still an awesome handheld. I was pretty adamant at first that the DS was the better system this gen but after taking a second dive into my PSP, I'm really unsure.

Well they won't really over-price it, but it will still be expensive because of those specs and features.
They might lower the price if sales don't go too well.
So i think it's best for people to wait for it to get a price drop if it comes out expensive.

The PSP didn't really failed because of piracy, but it didn't have insane amount of good game too >.<
And the NGP will be released in one year so W&S.

WOW * Eats popcorn *

Sounds really impressive, but the final judgement is when they announce the pricing.

Sadly, this.

Meh, still getting a 3DS. Seems nice for emulation, though.

The PS3 Slim still is a PS3 without PS2 compatibility and costs like half of what a PS3 cost at launch. Let's say, for instance, the tech costs $250 when it comes together. They sell it for $200. People buy video games for the system and once the video games outweigh their production costs, they become pretty much pure profit. And once that pure profit fills the price gap for the system, then it outweighs how much they price it and Sony gets a successful system. Aka the PS3 Slim.

Looks like I'll be keeping my DSi XL for awhile and waiting for the PSP2, how can the 3DS compete with this?

The 3rd Gen PS3 wasn't a slim but they didn't have PS2 game compatibility.
Speaking of Gens it's pretty funny how ppl complain at the DS for having so much revisions when there is the PSP 1000, 2000, 3000 and Go.
Iphone 1 2 3 4, PS3 Gen 1 2 3 4, i only heard of BBOX 360 and 360 Elite but i am sure there are more, i dont know much about xbox really.

I got my psp when it first launched, and a good game will only come along once every other month, after crisis core I sold it because it was just collecting dust
Lately I have seen some good games, but not enough for me to go back and get another PSP

 

[narutofan777]

damn damn damn! now we're talkin next gen. im absolutely stunned by the awesomeness of the psp2. holy cow this is like i don't know lol . shit im lined up sony. u got me

 

[Rommstain]

Kinda makes one wonder about the battery life for this new unit -- if it is indeed " more than half as powerful as the PlayStation 3," that would make it one incredibly power-hungry gadget!

Games, more games, and Nintendo games. The 3ds will probably be significantly cheaper AND get a price drop just before this comes out. And been on the market 9 months before this is going to be will help.

And it's not like it's that more powerful. The psp was a lot more powerful than the ds than this is to the 3ds.

EDIT: Either way though I want this to do better than the last one. One of my favourite gadgets but the worse games console ever.

Subliminal messages?

The no good games on the PSP is such a lame excuse. It's more like "I didn't play any games on the PSP, but I heard people say that there are no good games on the PSP, so it must be true." It's like saying Nintendogs is the sole of the existence of the DS.

Uncharted is pretty much confirmed since they demoed in-game content. Kojima is quoted as stating a new game will be announced at E3. They have pegged Killzone and Resistence on it, too. The system is heavily leaning towards core gamers. They did throw in a couple of stuff for the casual crowd like the roll-y game and Hot Shots Golf along with the social networking stuff.

All accounts from the developers is that moving their existing systems over to the NGP was relatively quick, but most of them still aren't optimized. I'm curious as to what the launch titles will be.

My money says that this will retail at $300-350 U.S. dollars (with Nintendo doing a price drop to $200 at holiday). Anymore than that, Sony prices itself out as a competition. The amount of tech in this thing is insanely crazy, and at that price Sony will definitely take an early hit for it, but if they remain heavily focus on pushing out AAA content then it'll be made up on the software side and the back end of it's life cycle.

Just because you were out of loop in PSP games doesn't mean it didn't have good games during that period.
