[Definitive] Sony PSP Thread

[ZZOOzzoo]

I saw a picture of a Sony keyboard that went on top I think and it looked clear almost like glass.  It liked awesome!!!  Wait just found the pic!!!

This was a display of the PSP when it was not released in Japan yet.  Hope they come out with this one because I think it looks alot better even though its on top.

But that looks like it would be too inconvinient to type. :(

I prefer the top one, although the glass one looks better.

I thought the first one looked very cheap.

I've been reading this thread and have to say, I'm even more excited about getting my PSP than I was when I pre-ordered one from my local GameStop.

I'm curious about how easily the PSP scratches and what those of you who have one are doing to keep it free from 'injury'. Both my iPod and GBA have quite a few scratches and I'd like to keep my PSP as clean as possible for as long as possible. TIA.

BTW: My local GameStop says that they may be able to fill both 1st and 2nd shipment preorders on launch day since it appears that Sony will be sending more product than initially thought. At least that's what the guy said when I called the store tonight. Hope it turns out to be true.

Im definitely going to have questions once I get it.

^Just visited the site and notice that it says the Value Pack includes a Spider-Man 2 movie, is that the whole movie or demo?

[JHAirforce05]

Whole movie.

[bob_loblaw]

I dunno, I've had mine for over 2 months and it's scratch free. It's been to work, in my bag, round relatives and friends houses. Just gotta look after it. Saying that, I just bought a new case.

Just an update on region free gaming:

Time to bump up my order of US games from 1 to tonnes :D

Importers should be aware that, as with any other game system, you should not expect import and domestic versions of games to link multiplayer together -- the systems should connect just fine, but because the US and JPN editions have a different code base because of all the language and tweaks and other edits that go on when localizing a title, the two versions are technically two different games. (We have already tested the US and Japanese editions of Lumines, and unfortunately, they won't link together

Every image of the PSP that I've seen makes it look like it's got a lacquer coating on it. :D

That's why I'm planning on doing what's necessary to keep it scratch free. But I guess I'll have to touch it once in a while. :D

Thanks Dazzla - that case looks perfect. It also looks like the case that's supposed to be available in a bundle with Dynasty Warriors. I just put a reserve on that game today. Now I have to find a U.S. source for that case!!!

Are you just using the case that came in the value pack? TIA.

[Liquid]

I am thinking about getting about 3 or 4 cases. One big one that holds everything for travelling. One small one that holds a UMD or two and a memory card for basic use, one hard one for short trips, maybe out doors.

[MaskingTape]

Nice, Sony has upped the shipment to North America a bit, now it seems like I'm 100% certain to get a PSP in the first shipment. YAY.

Still dunno which games to get tho :(
