Bought me a Psp Go....

Piracy is against the rules. Reported.

I bought a white one back in 2009. Shit was pretty sleek back then. I wish I still had it and knew how to mod it myself.

I had one, definitely a pretty console, good screen. However it is not ergonomic at all, pretty much impossible to play action games without getting cramps.

Pretty sure that Sony provides a PC program to transfer your PSN games to the console through USB.

Still got mine. Fully cracked open and stuffed with PSP, PS1, N64, homebrew, SNES and Genesis/MD games. Great system both in life and in death :)

I remember this - wasn't there some outrage that this was racist or something? Imagine this billboard even getting off the drawing board in today's climate. Man.
It was one of the first catalysts on Gaf, and maybe one of the first that created internet outrage.

This ad and Janet Jackson’s boob happened very close to each other.
no?

Ah 2006. It's weird reading articles like that eurogamer one from back then. Before everything was infected with sjw rage/agendas. Good times to be a gamer back then.

The Media go pc program no longer works unfortunately. The only way to purchase psp games and ps1 classics is through the psn store on a browser or the app. (PSN store no longer works on psp) Downloads can be accessed by logging into psn account management via the psp. Then go to transaction management, than download list to access purchased games. I presume this will work for a psp go. If not, well might as well do the jailbreak thing. Or use it a s a paper weight.

Design-wise it's very un-Sony. It looks cheap and uncomfortable to use for long periods of time. The original PSP-1000 was a beautiful handheld, though.
 
For $20 it'll be worth it. Such a clean looking handheld
That's a great price considering how much I have seen some going for.

You should still be able to buy and download games from PSN.

The real fun is in hacking the thing and making it a go to emulation system. There is a ton of potential in the palm of your hands.

If you're into jrpgs, get persona 3 portable. The ability to control your teammates makes it the best version.

Objectively not true. Besides that and the FeMC, everything about the PSP version is much worse. I even think FES isn't better than the original, because you lose the incredible battle theme and you fight a lot.

Agree to disagree. I dont like having to rely on brain dead AI, but that's just me.
 
You should have brought an Xperia Play which is basically a more powerful version of the Go, you get your PSX emulator and you can easily install a PSP emulator with universal SD card support, better screen, and and arguably better analog "sticks" and the slide out controller is better built and the screen actually has a tocuhscreen.

Especially if you get the later Black versions of the Xperia Play.

So many good games to buy digitally. I really enjoy my PS Vita. For PSP games, buy them form the internet store (in your browser) and you should have a list to choose from on the system (PSP Go). That's at least what I got from doing a bit of research.

That's the one red flag flaw with the PSP GO, I mean we're all digital know and PSP GO did that years ago.

Welcome to 2005 you bitch. Seriously, you know what to do with these old devices ;)
SoR and Miku.

How so? The PsP drives were notorious for messing up. The only way to keep playing your games was to jailbreak it. Sorta like the Vita after the expensive memory card dies. THANKS SONY IT WAS ONLY 80+ BUCKS FOR 64GBS!

I need to pick one of these up for my collection. I only skipped it because I don't do digital on consoles.

Yes.

But nothing will ever trigger me as much as this:
