Siliconera slipped a question to a Sony Rep at SDCC 08' and says "the 1.3 MegaPixel Chotto Shot camera wasn't powerful enough since many cell phones have cameras with a higher resolution."
Just need to make the PSP2 a phone with built in camera/bluetooth and all the features the psp currently has. It be a huge hit and seller if Sony would to do this. I probably would definetly pick up one if they are with my service provider.
Phones become obsolete within a year or two. Do you really want to lug around a dated phone just to play games? I say leave the gaming system and phone separate. What if your phone dies? You lose your gaming system. What if your phone keeps searching for a signal when you're underground or out of range and then you go to game and your battery is low? There are too many problems with combining technology.
Even though it would be cool to play with, i sorta agree. Cellphone camera quality is getting really good, pretty soon they will likley be just as useful as a standalone digital camera for everyday use. The convienence factor of them is also very good. All of which makes a psp camera kinda uneeded for the masses.
. . .question.is this camera made by sony? If so,why would they make a camera that is the same quality as their cellphones made in 2004 And 2005? My old old old K750i from a few years back had a 2MP camera.at the time,Sony were manufacturing 4 and 5Mp Standalone Cybershot Cameras.if this camera isnt made by sony,THEY BETTER MAKE ONE THEMSELVES and ship it EVERYWHERE!
good that they're realizing this and upgrade the camera.
:D Then make a better one and bring it down under!
Make augmented reality first person shooter!!
