QUOTE(cocoalightning27 @ Mar 25 2005, 10:47 AM) a year ago....I got a 128 mp3 player for $124....now you can get them for like 90....The price will go down  that has nothing to do with what we're talking about. The PSP probably costs more than $300 to make. Sony is selling the value pack for $250. They are losing $50 with each sale! Sony wants to make back the money they lose in software sales, which are $50 rather than the $30 Nintendo is asking for DS/GBA software. Yes, price will go down with time, but not in the near future. Unless of course, Nintendo releases their successor to the GBA (The DS is not a gameboy remember) and Sony has no choice. |

QUOTE Just thought i would shoot you guys some feedback on the PSP sales in my area. I'm a retail manager at a Target in the Denver Metro Area. We do the 3rd most business in the state of Colorado for target stores. We received 40 PSP's for the launch and we only sold 10 at yesterday. QUOTE I work retail, and our store received 60 PSP's and sold 10 the entire day. Outside of hardcore gaming stores, I was curious to find out if that was just an anomaly, or the standard. I actually had many people come up and talk to me about it, but balked at the price of $249.99. Looks like people are a bit reluctant to spend $250 on the PSP. |

Honestly, I can't really stand the PSP. I perfer to have the DS. The DS have more revolutions to hand held gaming such as dual screens and wireless multiplayer. The PSP has a mysterious battery life, and I heard it dropped to $200. Not sure the cost reduction is true though.

PSP does not have two screens. QUOTE ^ Not to mention that you can listen to music and/or watch movies on it wink.gif :D The DS does this too, and not on a proprietary format, which means the media is less expensive. |

There's something called "pre-ordering" and my bf told me there was some website that had live footage of people waiting in line the night before the psp came out lol. Talk about obsession..

it's funny how people are straining their eyes to watch spiderman 2 on their psp, when they can easily watch it on their larger screen TV.

^ that's pretty *pathetic*.
Etiquette and coolness guidelines say you don't whip it out to school until next week.
