PSP update

Post by **tnf** » Mon Aug 15, 2005 5:05 pm

Wasn't the web browser update supposed to be available outside Japan on the 12th of August?

Anyone know what the reason for the delay is?

No clue. Gee I dunno maybe it has something to do with the national period of mourning seeing as it's VJ day.

Victory in Japan day you unlearned swine. The day the Japanese Emperor signed the declarations of surrender mere days after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Seriously though.... There's no reason to buyt a handheld unless you commute or are away from home often other than plain materialism. Why play a stripped down, minimal game of whatever when you have a console and a big screen TV that'll do the same thing, only 40,000 times better at home?

Because they are convenient for down time at work, trips, etc, etc, etc,. people don't buy handhelds to replace consoles or PC's.

Or, because some of the games are jsut "better" on them.

The ds rocks for old school games. The PSP rocks for emulators.

Nothing beats siting in bed playing on them.

I know, i will get al lthe lads to bring in there old PS1's and we
can there with the TV's they also brought in and pretend we are
all on the same course and figure out who won via times OR i
could get the boys to bring in there PSP's and Ridge Racer and
actually race them wifi.

hmmmmmmmmmmm

I could bring in my DVD player and make a DVD of funny little
clips and connect it all to a TV and show my mates or i could
slap on my PSP memory card and play them off that.

Starting to see the point?
And besides, your bashing us for hand helds when you have
spent alot of money on your Neo Geo Pocket...?
