If Sony would have told these PSP sold out news late 2010, after the huge Japan sell through, it would be something else.

But bringing this news now, after the NGP announcement and the commenting on price issue, i can't see the NGP near 299$.

And "smart move" because they don't want to kill the PSP, is a bit naive, imho.

Sony can tell what they want to, but after 3DS and NGP release, who should want to buy PSPs anymore?

Nearly no one, if you ask me.

Same people who are still buying the PS2 ?

Comparing PSP to the mighty PS2?

Shame on you.

You know, PS2 was gen king by a huge margin (>50%), great 3rd party support, etc.

But you don't want to interprete this Sony statement other than NGP price explanation?

Would you?

NGP will be sold at a loss just like its older brothers so keeping a profitable HW around is always a good idea.

PS1 stayed around even after the ps2 came out, same with the ps2 and am sure sony will do the same with the ps3

Of course the PSP wont stay for years after the NGP, but a year or 2 is enough.

DS  sales and PSP sales (well...in japan)  wont die as fast as you think.
