PSP Go - Official Press Shots

Here it is, the official press shot of the Sony PSP Go

[Ziriux]

Oh this are very nice I must admit, cute little system.

[Silellak]

I love the overall appearance, but I'm not sure I like the placement of the D-Pad and analog stick. Should they really be so close together?

[Milky]

that guys hand is HUGE!

I cant wait to get one of these.

[Tsar4ever01]

Is it me,Or that HAND around the device is VERY BADLY Rendered. Look it was imaged around the psp go!

[RememberThe357]

Not as nice as that artists rendition, but still nice. I already have two PSPs but I'd consider getting this. Only because I love the PSP.

Now bundle this with Monster Hunter or the new FF game, and this system will fly off the shelf.

[Mindboggle]

This thing is really getting slated...Look at the comments on engadget

http://www.engadget.com/200...

I kinda feel bad for Sony as this was blatenly their big announcement at E3, and now they are going into E3 with a product that everyone has seen and not alot of people like.

I think it looks really cool...I dont know why all the hate is coming....

I also have a gut feeling It wont be long before MS come along with their own gaming Handheld and satisfy all these complaints, by including a second analogue stick, achievments and full Live support.

[Pika-pie]

No thats what a handheld should look like.

It is real as it was shown in the latest episode of Qore where they discussed E3 in the past tense.
Shipping fall and LittleBigPlanet portable all sounds good.

Yep someone is going to get fired

[Face Palm]

I hope the screen is GLASS like the iPhone and iPod touch so it doesn't scratch. I love how I don't have to worry about my iPod touch scratching when I put it into my pocket and since the PSP Go looks so pocket-friendly, it seems like a logical addition. Looks like a neat redesign but I'm disappointed that it still only has one analog stick though >:(

Fall of this year... damn suddenly that seems really far :/

[PS3 FanBaby]

That POS is ugly than the DSi! The graphics appear to be that of the Sega GameGear ROFL! Sony should stop making systems and turn into a developer like Sega since they clearly don't know how to make attractive devices.

[theEnemy]

Although I find this one very weird.

;)

[doctorstrange]

I see what you mean, looks very odd

[Ju]

That's a pinky..lol

[nikola987]

it's ugly as hell :(

[njr]

Just wait till its gets out to the public, it will grow on people.

[bym051d]

IMHO, the artist concepts we saw a couple of months ago were better. I don't feel bad about buying a PSP-3000 at all.

I was hoping it would at least have a nice big screen, but it looks like the same size as the other PSPs.

[XxSolid SnakexX]

The screen is actually smaller the original psp is 4.3 and psp go is 3.8

[BULLETBOI]

Dam, i might preorder it if this is for real...the screen looks sweet, big and nice...now just the price...

[blind-reaper]

I hope is somewhere between $150 and $200, I won't pay more than $200

[happyface]

I really dont see this turning the psp around, I expected more than some lame sidekick design

where is the dual stick?

[shysun]

It's not the PSP2, it's a redesign of the PSP. Just like the DS lite.

[Salvadore]

Looks similar to Sony Mylo:

[NegativeCreep427]

I haven't seen any video footage of it yet. Does the screen flip up at the push of a button?

With a disagree assigned to my question, I'll just assume a Microsoft a$$-slave just came in here and wanted to act like a douche bag!!!

Edit @ ravinshield:

Oh sure D*ck head, whatever you say. Games are just coming in left and right for both the PSP and PS3 and E3 is only going to push that notion to new heights...and make little mommas boys like you look even more delusionally retarded than you are now.

[ravinshield]

too bad the psp is also dying like the ps3rd.

[TheColbertinator]

So do your brains.

[pwnsause]

whats wrong poor bot, waiting for the ZUNE to break into the ipod market? AHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHA

LMAO at Disagree

[saimcheeda]

who cars what u think geek!!....actually ur not even a geek or u would have common sense...ur just a loser!

[50CALheadshot]

grrrrrrrrrrr

[ARog34]

I'm happy for Sony... but I hope this thing sells...

I was hoping for a touch feature for the XMB, along with the controls would make it the GOD of portable systems...

..still, if this and the PSP-3000 lower in price, I might have to buy one by the time all the good games come out: KH Birth By Sleep, Motorstorm, LBP, Gran Turismo...!

[Cajun Chicken]

Well, I certainly ain't buying all my old PSP games again in data form, Sony'd better come up with a way for me to play my old games on the PSP Go.

[Silellak]

Yeah, that was my thought as well. They're crazy if they expect me to "upgrade" without the ability to play my old games.

[sniper-squeak]

release a UMD - PSP converter, I might as well just get the new games on UMD too and just convert them onto my PSPGo wenever I feel like it, saving space and knowing the games are there in material form :)

[shysun]

I think the PS3 is going to have a hand in this.....

[Hockey11]

So that means you could basically get all the games from your friends, put them on the flash memory and give them back to your friends. I don't think sony would do that. I smell DRM.

[Tomonobu Itagaki]

So is there touch-screen or not?
If not, what a terrible mistake, and a big waste of time and money.
If yes, it can be a perfect opportunity to take their late on DS back.

[theEnemy]

no touchscreen.

Maybe on PSP2.

[carnex]

No info on PSPGo as of yet so we don't know is there touch screen or not but it's a longshot. It needs it tho, to work in closed position as media player and internet browser.

[theEnemy]

They would have mentioned the touchscreen here if it does have a touchscreen.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

16gb Flash memory
UMD-less
22% lighter than the PSP3000
Bluetooth support
and new games coming soon. :D

[carnex]

That video ended before the presentation is over. I still have about 0.004224% of hope for touchscreen. Even pressure sensitive one if they can't budget in capacitive one.

[theEnemy]

"But wait, there's more!" thing

Just like on TV-Shopping.

:)

[raztad]

It should have a touchscreen, NOT for games but the xmb interface. Music, Video, PS3 interaction. I dont see any buttons for volume control. Being labeled as GO probably means you dont need to slide up the screen to access your media content.

[Ju]

It should have 3G if not a phone. Don't need it to talk. But for google maps on the road and stuff.

[shamska]

Is that me ? or the logo on the top right front near the blue light is the bluetooth logo (blue light, bluetooth logo, it seems to match perfectly)? Could we image to have all the bluetooth accesories from the PS3 compatible with this PSP (headset, keyboard and DualShock 3 in order to solve the second analog stick issue).

[aiphanes]

With bluetooth 2.1 you would be able to attached anything to the PSP 2 go.

And tether it to an iphone....

LOL yes...we will have to wait till tuesday....

[Avenged Sevenfold]

yes, bluetooth confirmed. it will support headsets, keyboards, etc.

[SmokingMonkey]

lol i guess it's true

[SKUD]

I'm completely torn. I hate it but yet can see it grow on me. Final decision will be made when it gets its true test. Watching porn.

[shysun]

You sick man you....

[SmokingMonkey]

PSP = personal sex peripheral

[carnex]

hmmm... Where are the volume controls? Home Button is probably he PS button on the left. This redesign really need some explaining....

[hokis4ever]

I see Blutooth... Wondering if it will expand on the inter connectivity the current PSP has with the PS3... I can see it being used as a controller, but i would much rather use a DS3. would have been cool if they could fit a camera in the "o" from Sony's logo.

I wouldn't mind picking it up, but i have a number of games on UMD, so replacing my library with downloads is not the best solution.

[theEnemy]

I really hope Sony made this PSP Go compatible with the PS3 controller.
That would really be a great selling point.

[xlx-russ_92]

i think they will allow to use ps3 controller on new psp. cuz why would they add bluetooth besides headset?

[resistance100]

Shall be going, love the idea of a download only handheld

[San Frandisco]

YES! fvcking BLUETOOTH FINALLY!

Ive ben begging for this feature in the older psp's to have but never did... imagine playing online using your bluetooth headset insted of the tangle wired one.

dang i love this so far.. cant wait to hear more @ E3 mbaby wOOhOO!!!

[Johnny Rotten]

looks pretty slick but I'm an old timer who likes his physical media.

The thumbstick looks like it can work after playing some Hammering Hero today I realized my thumb does get little cramped. I'm sketchy about the internal battery though.

[whoelse]

Yeah I agree they did look better.

[Meus Renaissance]

Sony Milo

[gamesblow]

For all the cring over "GO" As I've said in a few post back last week... This is not the "NEXT" PSP. It is just a re-boot of the current one. Like all those lame remakes you're probably going to see in the theaters... Only this one is worth a look.

We've actually seen the next PSP2"touch" and it's very impressive. And no, "SEV", the name isn't going to be "touch" but it does have touch sensitivity and if you were a "REAL" insider you'd know that. But for right now, as the PSP2 isn't named just yet, we'll call it "touch"

[TheColbertinator]

Interesting.

[pwnsause]

so will this PSP "touch" get a graphics upgrade gamesblow?

[gamesblow]

Yes, the next PSP -which will launch, I'm guessing around late 2010 to early 2011... Will absolutley have a graphics update. We were able to see a few of the things it can do and it's absolutley insaine for a portable.

The buttons are not raised. They are all touch. Even the shoulder buttons. The screen is super thin, as is the system. It's about the size of a Razor phone opened.

[Getoffdiznuts]

so gamesblow is there an actual psp touch?

[Ninjamonkey]

I really do love it. It looks great, abd bluetooth sounds great.

But it seems this isnt the psp2?

Which makes me wonder, if the psp 3000 isnt being stopped then this is obviously going to be more expensive.

Lets say this retails for £200, will it really be worth it if its essentially the same, and theres a psp 2, which will probably be a further evolution from this, and probably with touch screen like the iphone which will be better than the DS?

I dont know yet. All I can say though is that my hype for sonys press confrence just shot up, and it was alreay stupidly high...

[Close_Second]

...a door or slot for a removable battery. I love being able to replace the battery or have one charging whilst I'm playing on the go.

[Lets-Game]

i dont really like the design, they should make it more like those sony photo cameras. but ill pick one up if its under 200 or when its under.

[Etseix]

LOL, every ps3/psp news on N4G are always the same , a troll comes up in the first 1-5 comments and then all people bash him, (it? o_O), this is always good for a laugh ;)

on topic:

this design of the psp (for me) is AWSOME! cant wait to buy this!! dont care if i cant download games from psn store (lol) this psp is awsome

EDIT: lets take out some bubbs from the trolls! WOW!

[saimcheeda]

ur right!!

[dogmeat eater]

For the psp When you watch the released qore episode. That guy says theres even a Metal gear game coming for the psp go.

[DOOMZ]

FAIL!

[themyk]

i knew it would be about the size of an iphone. fukc yeah baby i'm all over it

[JJFNIGHTS80]

Very, very sexy slick system. And the best part of this IT'S BLUETOOTH!! That's perfect for my bluetooth headphones. Now when the dates announce for this I'm going to reserve and buy it. And I'll keep my old PSP as a collectible item.

[Superduper09]

It looks nice, however Sony needs to release PSN Cards in Europe and Australia, so that we can purchase PSP Go games without having to use credit cards.

[llMurcielagoll]

I read 2 other articles with images of the new PSP Go two days ago. Its a very cool portable console, cant wait to get my hands on one!

I am kinda getting tired looking at the images, I wanna read some features and specs of the new PSP Go. So far, all I know about it that its got a built-in Bluetooth and will have an HDD upto 16GB/16Go. I wanna know more :(

[ReaperXL7]

Now if they can just make it so I can put my UMDs onto the actual system so I dident waste all that money i'll probably pick one up.

I wouldent be surprised if they announce this for cheap considering it's probably much cheaper to make without the UMD drive, I think $100-$150 would be a decent base price for it.

@MGS5-

Sony has made statements before that the reason they do not add the second analog stick is because most of the games most play on PSP wouldent utlize it because they were made to work with one stick.

I kind of think thats a lazy statement because they could just make it so all future games use both sticks, but you wouldent see it being used for awhile as most games coming for the system are far in development and it would probably be much harder then we realize to change a game from a one stick game, to a two stick game.

[MGS5-PS3EXCLUSIVE]

TWO ANALOG STICKS! TWO OF THEM! IS THAT SO MUCH TO FU*KING ASK FOR!?

THIS HAS NOW JUST LOST MY INTEREST STRAIGHT AWAY.

THE REST OF THE IDEA FOR THE BODY IS GREAT AND LOOKS BETTER FOR IT WITH A LARGER SCREEN BUT THE FACT THEY LEFT IT WITHOUT TWO ANALOG STICKS JUST MAKES ME MAD!
