Is anyone going to be playing a PSP out for 10 hours anyway?

I like the mew LCD better. It makes strawberries redder! :P Pretty big jump.

 

Absolutely! For instance, one of the biggest reasons I bought a second DS was for additional battery life =p

 

 

Anyhow, the PSP has a more powerful battery than the DS, yes, but it also uses WAY more power than the DS. Screens don't actually use much power - it's running the system itself that uses the most power, and the PSP has a disc spinner/reader. That's what uses the majority of the power, and why its battery life is so inferior to the DS's.

 

How much better is the battery life if you're doing remote play or playing off the memory card?
