I'm creating this thread as a guide for those who are considering of getting a PSP at the moment and could not decide on which PSP to go for...like me

All I know about the new slim PSP is that its slimmer by a few mm, has TV-Out, and a new mainboard which may be hard to crack for all those copy gamers out there. Can anyone else share a light on this issue? Picking between slim or old PSP I mean.

Definitely get the PSP Slim version. the TV out feature is a great feature. i do hope it use better screen and better control buttons.

yes, they mentioned that it will have better control buttons...but it will be also much more expensive. Old PSP is selling for $169, new one is expected to be at $199...means the PSP can be around RM1000 compared to the current price of RM8XX

The thing for me is not really about the price, but to a certain extend, how long will it takes before PSP SLim can play homebrew games..

PSP slim also same price $169. check the Amazon.com for pricing.

Already pre order for special Edition FF : Crisis Core... .. hope receive it soon... ask my friend to order it... from japan...

NDSL kaler pink ko ape cite?

yes, but I remember Xbox 360's mod came out quite fast. Was any mod released for the PS3?

Dunno...I found another website saying PSP is RM169 but never mention slim version...
If its a packaged PSP then its definitely $199.
samurai20's Crisis Core is selling like hotcakes $290 I think....$100 more than usual

u tgk sini la.. http://0okm.blogspot.com/2007/07/some-inte...n-psp-200x.html
ok...

full pakej .... FFCC + PSP Slim = RM800+/-... hmm ok wat.. .. my friend said la.. in japan.. order kat 7 Eleven (he working part time at 7E) only... .. why 7E here only sell condom... why.. sell la PS3 or 360 ke??

sbb org malaysia (terutamanya ko) suka main condom dr main console...wakaka...
yus orderkan aku punya skali...

if you buy from Japan...how to warranty? Can claim from any Sony service centres?

cant la.. just can order one la... very sorry.. but heard that bernard taking order for that PSP.. better ask him la.. .. really sorry...

should include some pics for making comparison,.. "see eye to eye" "seeing is believing"

maybe these should help a bit...

its beginning to feel to me that the PSP slim is overrated. Only thing to really look forward to is the D-Pad upgrade. TV-Out won't be used that much since we're "on the go" with the PSP. Other upgrades doesn't seem interesting since technology is supposed to have advanced a lot...

nice 1!! great for those still deciding to get either 1

ketul besar better... can hit dog

The old PSP still looks sexier with it's curvy back lol xD

later the slim psp juz like ps2(slim) cant play long hour it hang after play few hour....hehe jz my opinion...

you should be thinking of using it to whack thieves

it is possible...but very unlikely. If Sony says that it consumes less power this close to release - it will consume less power. Correct me if I'm wrong...but isn't there a compatible USB charger selling in shops? One of PSP slim's extra features

psp slim! because it's lighter, the old one is like a brick in your pocket.

psp slim = 64MB main memory

psp fat = 32MB main memory

so, that means some games that is designed to work with PSP slim only cant work in PSP fat ??

so it is not like NDS and NDSL,where it is only physical difference,

it is like ps1 and ps2 ??

I don't think memory affects games to that extent...
Its just supposed to help load games faster. Old PSP models should still be able to play newer games with a little longer loading time.

btw...long time no see mindkiller6610

I was hoping for the same as well. If the old gen PSP is not able to play the new generations one, then i'll be doomed..LOL..

i will get the slim one...
coz got tv out put...

another thing springs to mind..... anything from sony, first edition, sure cacat. hahaha. donno when will the psp lite b stable? i think i'll jz get the old 1 la. can reuse my old accessories

was there any problem with the original PSP with the first batch? Only firmware problems izzit? Shouldn't be a problem since they seem to be upgrading from the old PSP

oh i see..hope after they release the psp slim, more nice games will be followed..

ya..long time didnt play my psp edy..coz not much new games recently..

now playing transformers toys..hahaha

when r they releasing the slim edition or is it out already?

Next month...may need to wait till end of the month. But US release date is 10th

hopefully slim psp can play *ahem* game when October comes... coz planning to get 1 psp during ctober...

hoping dark_alex return 2 d scene 2 make a new oe version of psplite... then ill grab 1... haha... if not, tpakse la go 2 mariefrance bodyline n send my psp ther... then go 2 some shop n hv em add some more ram...

The only reason to get slim psp is becoz it's ligther only for me.

for those wanted to get the psp slim & lite..

try ur luck..

camron, so ru selling off ur PSP and getting tis new PSP slim???

its funny to see threads like this, the thing isnt out yet and people has already expectiing this and that..let alone raping it..LOLz.

haha, fren, if u go phone discussion, search for SE w960...de phone wil onli launch by 4th quarter, but the discussion thread ord more than 40 pages!!!

that is a phone. different. this is a handheld game machine. what is promised not necassary will be delivered. and with the constant firware upgrades, prx, the menu, the compatibility issue bla bla bla. remember how they said ps3 gonna have dual hdmi ports? or ps2's graphics will be on par with toy story? or the rumor psp with built in hdd? comparing phone dev with game dev is totally irrelavant. and remember nGage? LOLz!

I think it is quite pointless what to get or not old. The old "fat" PSP production is stop and already in phasing out. From next month onwards the only one is the slim. No choice for future buyers unless, they buy recon or 2nd hand. Then the ones (that "promotes" fat psp is good but secretly want the new PSP), that sell the 2nd hand will buy the new PSP..haha. It is stupid even asking this question, definately the slim is generally better in everything. Lighter, slimmer, tv out already, more efficient battery consumption (doubtful but tend to agree), 64 MB Ram, sexier, and all for the same price as the "old" fat PSP. No brainer really.

Now, the question is, is it possible for homebrew for that FW 3.60 for the slim one. Possible for the "ahem" which will make it sell like hot cakes in Malaysia. Which makes the above question to get or not even more no brainer.

It's natural for some PSP old owner envious and jelous lar...but for true gamer and loaded one, they'll just buy another PSP no problem. The one, no $$$ will just bring bad negative comments about the new one bla bl or how the old one better la (can use to hit dog lar what lar)...common lar....who move my cheese liow situation... human nature loh. Understandable.

Can't wait for the new one to release soon enough, and let see lor...if homebrew catch up fast or not. Exciting games ahead..crisis core...hmm....

sauce?>??????????

hehe... dunno yet.. maybe getting another set.. hehe..
see how it goes 1st..
cz support ''ahem'' le...

guys, keep your conversations to the thread topic. No more rants about "conversations of the future" please. Its not that funny talking about something that might or is gonna be released but it is funny that you're still complaining about it. Phone, cars, PSP...its all the same. Stop whining already.

its not the same.

we currently have a PSP.

to compare the release of the future unknown hardware is funny. if you look at overseas forums, topics like this will be flamed to hell.

its cool suddenly mr. A from a phone enthusiaist likes psp, but generalizing the psp with phone is ridiculous.do you know why hardcore psp people is not here to comment anything? because some of us like to HOLD the thing first before we comment. let alone view the tech specs.

yes, WE now have a PSP...but this thread is for those who do not - as it is said on the topic. So WE don't compare...just let those who don't have speculate or whatever it is they wanna do to kill time while they dream for the PSP slim to start playing ahem games

and you do know how to say "some of us"...I for one do not molest every single electronic gadget there is in the world - does not mean that I cannot talk about it.

you can definitely talk about it, its cool. but the talk is like a blind man describing a car, and the talk is directed to deaf people.
well, i rape my psp. to the max, and was one of the early people who raped it early here. but we do not talk about sex that DOES NOT HAPPEN YET, or we will be called a liar. fantasise about sex? LOSER. winner describes real sex, sex that they had, not watched OR HEARD. my two cents

jeez, now we're talking about sex. I'm closing this thread. This is going outta control. Ask you to keep to PSP slim, but you talk about sex. Go to girls club already.

those who want info please look at the PSP beginner's thread. But be warned...snipersnake may start the "winner's sex" talk.
