Play-mag: "The PSPgo has had its price dropped in the US and Japan. But is it too little, too late? What can be done to save the handheld?"

The PSP was ambition personified, so much so that it’s kinda wild to look back and realise what exactly Sony cooked up in 2004.
I still play my PSP. Sadly the UMD drive has stopped working, but I modded it to still be able to play my games (and then some). Such a great little portable.
The game looks like fun and here is the announcement trailer.
This is going to shock a lot of people but in many ways the PSPgo is the best version of the PSP. I know the analog nub is not ideal for games like Monster Hunter. (Doin' the claw!) However, the fantastic D-Pad and button layout is perfect for 2D games, fighters, shooters, etc.
Also, its small size and easy portability are an obvious bonus. Battery life is a bit of a downer but that technology always improves over time.
The cradle, TV out function, and the ability to use a PS3 dual shock are the icing on the cake. There is amazing untapped potential in this device. I imagine Sony will use some of the best ideas found in the PSP Go when they make the PSP2.
$50 would be great!
no price is good enough when you cant get wot you can on umd. plus its so crampt,ive given up on psp in uk,the psn doesnt got anything good or as big a choice as other regions,will save for 3ds instead
when did this happen?
Ive got one and i think its great.
If you want the option of disks and dont mind a bulkier unit then get the regular PSP.
If you want a smaller unit and like digital distribution then get a PSP Go.
