HOOOLLLLYYYYYYY HOOOOOKER! 

thats insane! yes PSP!

im looking into getting a PSP 3000 in blue as my PSP 1000 has a few... ok more then a few dead pixels... and a yellow thing on the screen... and i have lost the charger. 

OK. non of those things are true. i just want a new 3000 model blue PSP! 


LOL haven't heard that one before

PSP was never dead, slowed down? yes dead? never...it's a successful handheld with amazing games every year

OT: MH3P if capcom shipped enough this has a good chance of having the best FW in Jp, but from the news of many sold out retailers, I think they dropped the ball on it a bit..it's all good tho, who cares about records (other than us lol) it will keep selling for years like the last one

ahah i felt like now was the time to unleash it onto the interwebz!

also you are very right about the PSP, it just doesnt get alot of publicity like it used too.

Every time I see pictures from Japan, I see people with masks to cover their mouth and nose. Why?

Is it because they are sick or because they don't want to get sick?

In most cases because they have a cold...I am pretty sure you know the feeling when someone in your class had a cold the next day you got it from him...That is why many wear a mask when they have a cold;..

My friends were lined up and said it was already sold out by 7:30.

I didnt go, I played MHP2 but didn't really like it all that much.

 

But yeah, since I've been in Japan this is definitely the biggest line-up I've ever seen. 

For those of you who dont know, MHP is actually considered a casual type game here in Japan.

Many people who dont even really play games, play Monster Hunter. Its pretty insane.

Hmm, I think I would have phrased it more like:

HOLY DEAD HOOKER IN THE TRUNK OF THE BATMOBILE, BATMAN!

Then again, that may be too long.

Honestly I don't think that buying 1 console for just 1 game is a good sign of "appreciate" it happened with the Gameboy during he early days of Pokemon and now with the PSP with monster hunter.
