Thoughts on the PSP2 and the future of Sony portables.

[Tridrakious]

I was actually working on the PSP successor in my head yesterday. Here's what I got.

+ Keep the style of the PSP Go, but increase the screen size to 5" to 5.3", LCD/3D
+ Built in motion tracking (for tilting, quick movements, etc.)
+ 2 Analog sticks, not nubs and not a single one either
+ Digital Download only, but still supports Memory Stick Mirco and games would be released on the M2 cards
+ Completely Bluetooth enabled.
+ Built-in 4 megapixel camera
+ Processor that mimics the Cell. I'm thinking 700mhz to 1.2ghz
+ 800mb internal system ram
+ Expanded PSN Store, exclusive content only for the successor. Called LifeStyle Apps.
(calendar, calculator, up to the second weather update, GPS [the system would have GPS built in, but instead of bogging down the XMB early. Allow the consumer to decide what is on the XMB)
+ Touchscreen enabled
+ Scratch and glare resistant screen
+ Improved RSS feed support (Audio, Video, News, etc)
+ If there's a way I would go with 4G, but if not at least 3G
+ With being DD, the system would have access to everything it's predessor had. PSP games, PSone Classics, Themes, Wallpapers, Demos, PSN Games, etc.

For launch Sony needs to have at least these games.

Patapon 3 (6 new weapons, 24 new attack combinations, build your own Pata kingdom [sims style])
LocoRoco: Mid-Day Rumble
KillZone: Rebel Insurrection (to showcase the 2 analog sticks)
