This should be a dream come true for retail. If Sony goes to the a system were retailers give out codes to get games it is a complete win situation. Retail will not even have to have stock. They can just have cards like Toys'r'us used to do, and customers will have codes activated when they scan the card at the regester.

 

lol yeah that makes sense until people realize that you dont have to drive/tram/fly/swim to get these "cards", all you have to do is log onto the online store forgoing all need of retail.

 

trust me. retailers are scared,,, especially gamestop and gamecrazy..

Or retailers could just NOT stock the PSP2. Retailers don't make much money from Hardware sales by themselves, they make most of their money from game sales/accessories anyway, so if they are no game sales (direct download only), then some places might just use the space for another system(console/handheld) instead.

 

 

retailers dont have the power to not stock a console if it doesnt seem fit to them.

as soon as the big companies start advertising the people will go look for them.

 

and guess what?

if they dont find them at gamestop or gamecrazy they will at wal-mart.

 

they is no combating what companies want from thier machines..

although i think digital distibution only machines should be held off for two more years there is no doubting that 

DL Games is the only future.

 

 

*edit*

and online shopping is becoming huge!!!

nintendo, Sony, Microsoft could just sell thier coonsoles online..

sure it woont have as strong a penatration as it being sold in retail but eventually it will get there

 



hello how are you.

FIRST MINUTE PURCHASE!!!, I hope the new design is slick sexy

Going to trade in your current PSP and all its games?  The new PSP, if this is true, won't be able to play them.

I may never get a PSP if this is true :'(

*mutters* stupid sony and their stupid DD *sniffs* *kicks rock*

Um... Sony has announced they'll have about 100 classic PSP titles for Download on Day 1... and the chances are the game you want WILL be on the store...

Now my biggest concern is what if you ALREADY PAID for the game... Sony should have a trade in program or a discount program who paid for the disc version of the game...

That sounds lame actualy, I hate DD.

If it is the PSP2 I have to talk smack about the PSP1 lasting only 4 years as a matter of course.



Tease.

2 analog sticks would be a huge selling point for me.

Yeah, i'm probably gonna pass on this one. PSP is a failed brand, and i'm not wasting my money on another one.



NIKOS_SE on 29 April 2009

the question is simple why doesnt sony release all upcoming psp titles is memory stick duo format??????????that way psp-1000,psp-2000 and psp-3000 will also be able to play those games............also if sony are going full digital why dont they give us more capacity?????16gb/32gb would have been ideal or sony could even give a hard drive 120gb ipod retails for less than 249$ so i think it is possible for sony to give psp an 80gb hard drive!!!!

GT Mobile as a launch title? I normally wouldn't believe something like that is plausible, but this is 1UP...

If true, wow.
