I don't believe that Sony will release anything this ugly and expect us to buy it.... I mean really? All fan concepts for new DS/PSP/PSP2 were better than this.
All fan concpets for the PSP2 thing looked near identical.

It's a handheld that is roughly as powerful, if not more (in theory), as a PS1. 3D Action games can happen for it, and it doesn't look like they aren't going to stop trying. Granted you do not play said titles, but that's subjective.
Being "theoretically" as powerful doesn't mean anything, there are hardly any real 3D action titles on any handheld whatsoever. Most people play handhelds for a pick up and play puzzler or RPG or something, much more often then to play a 3D action adventure game at least.

Ok let me try a different approach.

Number of consoles with two analog sticks in 1996: zero
Number of consoles with two analog sticks in 2009: six (counting all that have existed to date)

One of those six is the PS1, post-introduction of the dual shock controller. What is the PSP? A handheld with roughly the PS1's power. Do you see why people are expecting two analog sticks now?
Number of handhelds with two analog sticks in 1996: zero
Number of handhelds with two analog sticks in 2009: zero

The DS seems to handle no analog gameplay just fine, albiet with the added accessory of the touch screen, just no analog gameplay fine nonetheless. I don't see the huge gripe for the PSP to have a second one if the DS handles none just fine. Granted, two analogs are better than one, but there's really now HUMONGOUS point to having a second analog stick, at least right now.

You'd think they'd have realized that everyone wanted a second analogue stick - then I would have bought it - as it stands its just a rehash of my current PSP. I just want a portable games console I can play JRPG's on - is that to much to ask?

I guess I better buy a DS lite...when the price drops...
Uh, unless I'm missing something here, can't you already do that regardless of if it has a second nub or not?

The points are not connected, but rather a rambling chain of thoughts. I would have liked a second analouge stick because I find controlling the camera awquad and painful after long playtimes.I would also like some decent games to play - don't give me all this "you have such and such on the system" because I'm exclaiming that I don't like the games on it at this momment - I own Daxter, Virtua Tennis 08, LocoRoco and a few others I never play. Theres just no longer lasting games that appeal to me on the system.

Why would you need a second analogue stick to play JRPGs?
You know I answered that exact question...its in the post above this one - but I'll reply again for the sake of it.

The points themselves are not connected, I would like a second analogue stick because I find the camera controls generally annoying or painful on the current PSP.

The JRPG comment was to do with the systems distinct lack of good JRPG's.

It's like a DS nobody wants! This will totally help make up for the terrible sales of the PS3!

Ugh.... Why do they even bother? I'd be embarrassed to have that thing out in public.

Gee...wonder where they got the design idea from lol



I don't think it looks ugly, just a tad awkward I guess. Although I still find the uncanny resemblance amusing.

Yeah sorry about that. I clicked Reply before your post appeared.

Seriously? I'd say the PSP's lineup of JRPGs is excellent, almost as good as the PS2's. It's lineup of TRPGs is also second to none. Which ones have you played that were so disappointing?
I disliked FF: Crisis Core for one. I guess Monster Hunter could also be classed as a JRPG. I didn't realize there was a Valkarya (spelling?) Profile game and the early Star Oceans out for the PSP though - Might have to check them out.

Valkyrie profile is a real tough one time find unless you use online, and the Star Ocean remakes are pretty good especially if you enjoy star ocean to begin with. Have you played Jeanne D'arc? really good, if not innovative, SRPG by level 5. There's also FFT but you probably have played that and there's Disgaea. Persona remake, Lunar, Ys, Crimson Gem Saga, Yiggdra Union, Disgaea 2, Tales of games, class of Heroes, and some others I can't immediately remember are on the system and are being made. I hope some of that helped peak your interest at the very least.

Oh please! Why does Sony keep trying!? They know DS is more popular, advanced, and better. I hope that rumor of Microsoft buying out Sony comes true.
Really Microsoft buying out one of the biggest electronic companies in the world? Where have I been? Oh thats right, I've been on planet Earth, not bizzaro world.
it's a rumor! WOW it doesn't mean it's going to happen. I just heard it on a different website that's all.
Yes but think about the rumor. The absurdity of it is well... Absurd.

*thinks about it* nnnnnnnnnnnno I could see that happening. Anythings possible. Microsoft might buy it out just so they belong to them. But that doesn't mean Sony disappears from the earth.

Right. We all know its spelt V a n g u a r d e x
Dingo: You're insulting another forum member for no reason other than you dislike his opinion. Reported.

I honestly don't know about this. I likely won't be getting it (due to lack of a second analog nub), but I've always admired the PSP for pushing the boundries of handhelds. It's just that I can't stand the idea of only having one stick.

Maybe I'll get one anyway, depends on how well it handles. If nothing else, it could serve as a handy MP3 player/movie veiwer/whatever I want to mod it to be.
