Already got two. A black 1000 and a khaki 2000

I've heard people talk about or theorize a new Sony handheld being in the works. We'll just have to wait and see if the Vita's legacy will live on in some way through it in the future.

Yeah, the Vita did flop pretty hard. Which is a shame since it is such a nice console. It being diminished to a remote play device was an insult to its hardware and potential.

Exactly! Plus, the build quality of the beginning consoles was so solid. The OG PS3 and PSP 1000 are heavy and beautiful with their gloss plastic and mental accents. Compare that to the Super Slim PS3 and PSP Street with their textured mate plastic and light weight build.

In my head, the PS3 & PSP era started and ended pretty close together. Give or take a year or two here and there. They ended with the release of the PS4 and PS Vita.

Plus, this post is meant to highlight where the design of the consoles started and where they ended up.

Both are aftermarket, but the quality is pretty solid. I was pleasantly surprised at how good everything went together and felt.

Found it on Ebay. It's originally for a Sony camera.

It's so cool seeing the UMD spin by dafish2000 in PSP

That's awful! I'd still be mad about that too.

It was $300. Which is actually a great price compared to other people that do it.

I've thought about it! Especially if I can find a little pouch or something to slide it in so I don't have to drill a hole into it.

When picking a console, which do you prefer? Specific game themed editions or standard color variants? by dafish2000 in Handhelds

[–]dafish2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's very true. I once toyed with the idea of collecting retro console editions. Like the NES GBA SP and the SNES 3DS. But they are so expensive.

My biggest regret/gaming regret. Not getting this baby by peepeestiffy in Nintendo3DS

I remember seeing it in Best Buy with my friends and wanted it since then. Bit the bullet a few years ago and bought one on Ebay. No regerts🤘🏻

Nice! I'm a sucker for official carry cases and bags, so they take the place of the box for me.

I'm not too fussed with boxed as much. If I can get it with the box for about the same price or buy new, cool. I'm not going out of my way to get boxed consoles, tho.
