-

-
thats pretty fucking awesome if it will be $60...sure it's not $600 ;D
-
Yeah, the specs looks pretty sick..
But they have tough competition, so they better launch/market it good.. Nintendo 0wns handheld.
Sony says they're aiming @ making it top the Ipod-success, and if you look at what they did with PlayStation 1 & 2, they're the company to do it.
-
damn the getaway?
i mean...that was a dope game and all but fuck...i beat that shit in like 4 days. they should put out a new GTA game first
but fuck for 60$ i'll be coppin this shit for sure...especially since im sure my work will be carrying it.

I also will cop it if it cost 100 $ .... I mean shits sick.... you can play it like the PS2....the best thing is you can battle all the games via IrDa...
psp brings gamin to another level...... fo sho

I don't see it costing $60.00, but maybe. Hopefully. They should do well with it, but I don't see them taking over Nintendo's handheld market, because the Gameboy is aimed at children, while the sony whatever will be aimed at teenagers and young adults. Kids wouldn't be as interested in it, because it's bigger, more complicated, and the CD's are more fragile. They could possibly beat Nintendo in the older demographics, though.
-
what are the dimensions of it?
-
Well, those little discs are usually a little over 3" wide, so in comparison, it looks like it's about 7 inches long, 3.5 inches wide.
-
Sure, 60, but how much will the games cost? :P
-
lol,what is ur source????
im 99% sure it wont be 60,it will be at least 100 if not more
-
lol,what is ur source????
im 99% sure it wont be 60,it will be at least 100 if not more
it would be a great way to get people to buy it tho.....so it wouldnt be such a bad idea...but i also doubt it would be 100 bucks but if it was 60 i know i would buy it if it was 100 then i dont know i would have to think twice about it you know what im saying?

yea it would be a good idea because more peeps would buy it but sony would be losing money because of how much it costs to make each one and everythin
for sure it wont be $60 i say it will be $99 or more
-
dude i can garuntee you it doesnt cost nearly 60 bucks to make that. it probably will cost them about 5 bucks. i work electronics retail (i think a few others on this board do too so they will know what im talkin about)...but the markups on electronics are insane. we'll buy a cordless phone for like 6 bucks and sell it for like 200. we'll buy batteries, 100 of them for like 5.00, and sell each one for 2.99. shit is cheap as fuck to make and they sell it to companies cheap too. everything after that is markup.
-
yea i knoe it dont cost 60 to make one,but i dont see how sony would sell it for that cheap
and the guy who started this still hasent supplied a link or anythin to prove that $60 is a eligible price for tha psp
-
Actually, it may very well cost them more than $60.00 to make that. Microsoft lost $100.00 each on the X-box whenever it came out, for instance. They didn't even show a profit in their X-box division, to this day. They lose money every quarter, because it costs more to make the X-box than they sell it for.
Rumours are that at $99.00, Nintendo has more than that in the Gamecube, too.
-
microsoft make money on the games, not the consoles themselves like trauma said. that's what sony should do with this
