Forums - Sony - buying psp, should i buy now or wait?

So, the third birthday is almost out and parasite eve 1 and 2 are two of my most favorite games EVER! I want to play through both again before the third birthday. i heard both PE 1 and 2 are comming on PSN so i figured i could play them poth on a psp. I do have a ps3 but i feel like playing PE 1 and 2 on the go so yeah...

now my problem is that i'm really sold on the idea of a psp phone and if one does come out i really want one of those. should i buy a slim now or wait for more news on the psphone? and buying both is not an option as my resources are limited.

what do you guys think?



Around the Network

I'm going to buy one early next year.

Just before the 3DS comes out... And retailers are wanting to free up some shelf space and putting a lot of (I assume) PSP stuff on sale! Will be the perfect time!



                            

Well to be honest I would hold off on the purchase for two reasons.

A. PSP 3000 and all PSP software are going to drop to poverty affordable sales once PSPhone and PSP2 come out. The 3DS will be the start early next year you'll see retailers trying to clear out PSP's. Then later in the year with PSP2 coming the retailers will again cut prices and software as well as the console itself will become very affordable.

B. There is very little known about the PSPhone and its software support. My bet is it will support all the downloadable PSP games currently availible on PSN. You may want the actually software. If you don't mind only downloading games and you need a phone then I'd wait to see what software support the phone has and just how expensive it will be.

In other words wait for the PSPhone to launch and see if it gets the software support you want. If not then buy a PSP 3000 at its discounted price and enjoy buying your software at budget prices.
