Are you getting a PSP Go?

[fatdragondzc]

How many people plan to buy the new PsP Go? So far the only reason I've heard most people (including myself) complain about is the $249.99 price tag.

Edit:

SCEE boss Andrew House explains why PSP Go is so expensive

No, I already have a psp.

 

[ric1287]

id like to have a pool on how long it takes for a price drop. I'd put money on <3 months

 

[Dumac]

No, I have a PSP already.

 

[SunnyD]

Nope. Mostly because it's more expensive with "less" features. The older PSP's will do everything the Go does and more (UMD, h4x0ring), cheaper.

 

[DaveSimmons]

I want a PSP eventually, but to me the Go is hideously overpriced compared to the 3000.

Maybe after a few price drops when it's well below $200.

 

[mmntech]

I already have a PSP. The Go is way too expensive anyway, plus I like having tangible media.

 

[Baked]

Using that money to buy a netbook instead. I have a DSLite already.

 

[Crow550]

Nah. I have a PSP that is just collecting dust. I play my DSi more. The games on the PSP have very few great games that warrant upgrading it.

I think you should add a "HELL NO!" option to the poll

Agreed ^

no emulators (homebrew) = why even get a PSP

Most people that are interested in PSP have a PSP. Others have a DS, iphone, or a combination of the three if they are portable gaming fans.

 

[biggestmuff]

Fuck no. I have a PSP-3000 that I'm pleased with.

 

[Phobic9]

After owning 2 actual PSPs... nope. I've even put aside my DS since my iPhone is good enough and I don't have to carry anything else.

 

[Dari]

Better to buy a regular PSP and get an 8GB or 16GB MSPD.

 

[Barfo]

No, I like my DS.

 

[Rage187]

No. I would have considered it if it was $99 but losing features should not result in a higher price.

This. Hell, I would even go $150.

 

[Industrial]

Yes. My son is getting it. We already have the PSP and 2 DS. I don't play the handhelds, maybe once every 3 months. However my son is always on his PSP, using it for games, music...etc., might as well get the iPhone, but then I'd have to pay the $100 per month service. No thanks.

The size, bluetooth and battery life is a big feature for him. I don't think he really needs it, but it's his own money. Teenagers these days *sigh*

 

[PieIsAwesome]

Hell no. I already had a normal PSP, did everything I wanted to do with it, then sold it.

If I were in the market for a PSP I wouldn't pay $100 more for an inferior version.

 

[fatpat268]

I am.

Why? The size mostly. I used to have a PSP but sold it long ago and there's a few games I want. Digital distribution doesn't bother me. The price doesn't bother me either.

I went through 2 PSP's as well and although I don't game that much, I have used DS more. I am waiting for my 32GB iPhone S :laugh:

 

[purbeast0]

no, i'm just not really into portable gaming.

i had a DS, traded it to a friend for a PSP a few years later, and now that collects dust.

if I was into them though I'd probably get one, although I think it is way over priced.

 

[gorcorps]

I sold my PSP for a reason, so no

 

[mugs]

No. I already have a PSP that I never use.

 

[AstroManLuca]

No because it removes access to cheap used games on discs. I love bargain hunting for games and the last thing I want is to have my only option to be to buy games directly from Sony, guaranteeing I pay full price for every last one.

Lack of homebrew + smaller screen + much higher price pretty much seal the deal.
