Anything over $200 is just too much for a handheld, especially one lacking in productivity/utility features.


How is it lacking features when it will have as good (if not better) graphics than PSP. Plus a touch pad, 3d screen and gyroscope as well as 2 cameras?`From my view its superior to PSP in every way and if its $200 dollars there is no reason what so ever (other than piracy) to even considering buying a PSP anymore, let alone a PSP-GO.

I didn't say it was lacking in graphics, it certainly isn't. I said it was lacking in productivity/utility features: email, internet, apps. The kind of stuff you'd find on an iPod/iPhone.

The 3DS is unambiguously superior to the PSP, but I don't really think that's a fair comparison. We don't know what Sony has in store for the PSP2 yet - everyone knows the PSP1 is on its last legs.

At $200 the 3DS is a great buy. That's only $30 more than the (ridiculously overpriced) DSi and the PSP itself, after all. But any higher and people will begin to ask themselves: why am I buying this instead of a home console or a smartphone?

Because its Nintendo? Seriously, why are people are still buying a Wii instead of a PS3 or a Xbox 360 is beyond me... Also everybody already has a cell phone, not everyone has a 3D console that is handheld at that.
