Sure, the PSP GO has value at $150. But what if you don't care about all the extra goodies and just wanna play games? I refuse to buy a DD-exclusive handheld. Digital Distribution is the devil and goes against my interests as a consumer. Why should I accept a business model that provides me with a lot less bang for my buck? Currently I get unlimited rentals, 2 games out with a fast return and reserve option for $26/month. How rational would it be as a consumer to throw that away to pay $60 for 12 hour single-player games that they can't resell/trade in. Digital distribution is an anti-consumer system. Sometimes I think gamers care more about gaming companies than they do themselves. Capitalism isn't about charity. It's about trying to get more for less. And gamers who support a full-on DD transition are not acting rationally.

 

Thats the point actually, PSPgo isnt market towards people who just wanna play PSP games, those will be better getting the old PSP. Sonys knows that. For person like me who always used the old PSP as MP3/MP4 player + psp games and skype thats where PSPgo is interesting. I in fact purchase one and keep the old one for emulator only. Its a great thing to carry my PSPgo compare to the old PSP, it can fit in my pocket lol. I totally understand your point, but like I said earlier we need to place things in perspective. PSPgo is a multimedia device that plays PSP games. There arent much differences between the PSPgo and others MP3/MP4 player other than the fact it plays PSP games. For a gamer, this make it the perfect MP3/MP4 player to carry around, thats the point.
