The 3DS costs more than a Wii and 360. Not that difficult to imagine PSP2 being more than the PS3.OneMoreQuestion said:Is it even possible that the PSP2 would cost more than the PS3?

The Take Out Bandit said:What region are you in?
USA, PS2 launched @ $299.99
USA, PSP launched @ $249.99
So no, not in the United States.

Commanche Raisin Toast said:don't think he's talking about launch price for the console. handheld being more expensive than whatever the current price of the console is. that's where i think the discussion is going.
The Take Out Bandit said:And I didn't say they did.
It's silly to imply the price of inflation somehow then makes PS2 launch price parity with PSP launch price. Accounting for inflation PSP was priced better than a PS2 adjusted for inflation.
So what's your point?
Quixzlizx said:The discussion was about whether the the PSP2 launch price would be higher than the PS3's current price ($300).
The PS2 was $200 I believe when the PSP launched.
The Take Out Bandit said:PSP2 @ $349.99 would hurt my wallet; and cool my jets for some time to come.
Commanche Raisin Toast said:if the PSP2 launched at (price that the masses deem way too high like PS3's $600) and it had a huge impact on sales in the bad way, how long can we realistically expect sony to continue their high-priced electronics game? is it the japanese sector's philosophy? is it something that yet another shake up in the higher ups could fix?
i'm just trying to get an idea of how often sony admits that they had a bad way of doing things and then adjusts. if the PSP2 is a reflection of them changing their tune with the way they do business then awesome, but continuing their trend says a lot.
i just hope it turns out to be the former.
Sony sells cameras with 450 PPI screens, and 300+PPI devices existed for years. People are not holding it up to anything because marketing isn't telling them to do so.julls said:You can also guarantee that if a screen came out with higher resolution/PPI/whatever for the size than the Retina screen, people would be holding it up as some 'Apple-beating' tech.
I see Phones and tablets from a large variety of manufacturers (Apple is not even the most expensive one anymore) that offer a similar price frame of reference IMO.The Take Out Bandit said:The only frame of reference I have here is the PS3

Yeah, that is looking more and more likely. The PSPhone seems to be labled Xperia.Fafalada said:Ultimately they might be better off to shed the PSP name in that case though.
I would buy that. First mock-up I like.AAK said:

I use my PSP as a MP3 player all the time. I just put my phone in the back pocket.-Pyromaniac- said:Shit would be too big to carry around as an MP3 player. Because you'd be carrying your phone as well. Two big things in pockets can't end well.

BowieZ said:I know it may sound silly, but would it not be smart for handheld gaming devices (presuming they don't make phone calls) to come with a special case or strap or connecting compartment that fits 95% of smart/phones?
Router said:I really wish it was a clamshell like the 3DS. I don't like the brick design really. Come on announcements! I want some Syphon Filter love.
Oh, don't give a shit about media features of the thing. The only reason I would buy it is for games.
I have the belt case thingy....nerdy!duckroll said:Maybe if you're a girl or something. Real men just shove our phones into our pockets. We don't keep them in a purse! Why would I want my phone in another case or pouch which makes it even more out of reach when I can just have it in my pocket?!
