Yeah,and it costs 19,800 yen.That would be €145.It's definetly cheaper then i thought it would be.The price in Euros is a direct conversion from Japan but in Europe i think it will cost a little bit more with all the high taxes everywhere.Still,a reasonable price.
I also just found out that a remake of Final Fantasy VII is in the making for the PSP wich is planned for release sometime in 2006.

Here is the image that confirms it:

It's not 100% sure that it's a remake but it's very likely.

Nice, I'll probably get one whenever it comes to EC..

And here is an update on GT4 Mobile. It comes out in Spring 2005, and not Winter as hoped. I don't think any of us will be surprised to hear that.

Awesome. But probably I won't buy the PSP.

 

[slackbladder]

Hmm...I'll get it when it comes out. It'll be interesting to see how good those PSP games are, at least graphically.
However, seeing as this is brand new hardware I'm not expecting it to hit the UK until late next year, though the US will probably get it sooner.

Metal Gear Acid is a release game I believe.

I will be first in line to purchase a PSP when it hits U.S. shores... I didn't realise it was coming out so soon....

Doesnt the psp use mini discs?

 

[sUn]

PSP will be $199.99CDN, about the price of the new PStwo.

Doesnt the psp use mini discs?

No, they use "UMD" discs... They are proprietary Sony discs...

 

[Iceman]

But they are fairly "mini" in size. The U.S. releae date is somewhere in Q1.

I won't get one as my rich, gadget loving mate will no doubt get one. The sad thing is he gets these things buys a couple of games and never uses it again.

i cant quite see the point of a portable ps2.....

something about playing games on 3m projection screens that does it for me

bit too expensive as well!

Three Ridge Racer videos released! Wow! Great graphics!

 

[bustwave.]

Wow. I am totally SOLD. I shall buy a PSP.

 

[ForNgoods]

God i jus realized that thing is a lot bigger than i thought it was gonna be. Reminds me of the sega game gear, lol well maybe not that fat but still. I jus pictured it being a little smaller in my head. Does anyone have the dimension of the screen??

 

[Velocity_strike]

I might a PSP if the battery life is over 3 hours at least. i also heard that it had a rechargable battery pack that takes a 1.5 horus to charge unless Sony said otherwise.
