I'm not sure if this has been covered before but hey.
I have been a long time user of a psp grip controller. The psp sits in it and it basically gives me two dual shock style handles. I find it infinately more comfortable.

I'd find it interesting to hear if other people use such a thing.

yes or no?

thanks!

Ive never seen that, looks interesting, I spend too much time using my DS3 too have a need, but it definatly looks interesting.
 
haha I second Sin's choice. Playing with the DS3 is nice because my hands don't get cramped from playing on the Go.
 
Cool, I never knew these things existed but it's a damn good idea! The PSP is not comfortable at all and I find it awkward getting my hands/fingers into comfortable positions.
 
Yes, I've got something like this. Love it!

Posted it here some time ago.
 
Do your homework before getting one of these. I recently got one for my new PSP3000 / GT "Special Edition" and found that what most reviewers said was true ..... they are made for the original version PSP and do not fit the newer ones or "Slim" version very well. The PSP slides around easily and is not gripped by the intended arms as intended. I was able to wrap the soft half of a velcro strip around the top arms and insert rubber strips at the bottom to secure the PSP as necessary.

I also had to file away a portion of the left handle to allow clearance for the AV Component out cable that I use to connect to a TV.

Also, the one shown above with the battery and connecting cord is not available thru Amazon anymore with no stocking date apparent. The one I purchased was made by CTa and is not a powered unit.

I'd also be aware of the battery on these things. Mine was really not much more than a gimmick and the thing lost it's charge, never to return, after about 2 weeks of use. Don't buy one thinking it's going to double your battery life.
As a grip though for the psp phat it's killer. Amazon (amongst others) do them for the psp slim too

That happened to mine too. During its first charging the thing got very very hot and that was the end of it. The plastic casing has actually deformed somewhat, from the heat I assume. :ouch:
 
I had something similar. It was actually a protective case with expendable grips built in. Loved it... before some filth got under then screen cover and ruined the screen.
