Sweet... 200 US aint all that bad. Maybe I'll consider getting it, but handhelds aren't my thing anymore.

All i see is "From OPM UK"

There's 3 PSP bundles. Normal one is $199.99

Link is broken. Time for a new one

For Christ's sake. I'll look for another pic.

I honestly find 200 a little hard to believe...

If its actually released at that price, I wonder how big of a hit Sony is taking for each unit sold.

DarkMaster · 10-02-2004, 01:52 PM

Yeah ok you can believe this if you want to or not, I know it's hard without a pic. The first and regular bundle is the PSP, memory stick (forget the space), rechargable battery, battery recharger, and headphones for $199.99. Second one is the same, except the memory stick has more space, there's a case I believe, and...crap I don't remember, but that's for $299.99. The third and best bundle has all that previous stuff, a larger memory stick than the second one, some kind of fancy case, a GPS device, some translation media software, and some other thing, for $399.99

They already said they fully expect to take a loss for each one.
and same as all the prices that have been mentioned, i dont fully believe any untill the final final word.

But if this did end up being the price for the PSP, thats a giant step for sony, and i'd be betting it would win outta the 2. IF its that price that is.

if that image is still in your mem somewhere, save it and put it as an attachment

I'm not in a position where I can spend $200 for the PSP. But the $50 difference between that and DS isn't bad. If it was a $100 difference, I think the DS would've won the majority. We'll really have to just wait and see though. Working teenagers could get it but I think the only way kids will be able to get a PSP is through Santa or the Spirit of Hanukah. I guess the same for DS.

Jonbo298 · 10-02-2004, 02:04 PM

If its $199.99 then wow. Sony has to be taking a huge hit with each one.

DarkMaster · 10-02-2004, 02:36 PM

if this one screws up I'm gonna be hella pissed.

Null · 10-02-2004, 02:53 PM

my question is. if thats a magazine, why hasnt the net heard of it before a magazine comes out? that means that news is weeks old for them. So where does this info come from?

i might buy the $199 package, if there is such a thing. Matter of fact, i would buy it. but something sounds fishy. why in the name of god would sony make 3 packages for people to choose from. they know damn well that parents will never be able to decide of what to get. i'm willing to bet no one will buy anything but the $199 dollar one. so what is the point in even releasing 3 packages?

Point is, Sony isnt marketing it towards kids, the older people who like to buy electronical gizmos are known to buy more. i bet you the top one will sell quite a bit. its a smart move for sony, if its true... Because they'd be marketing a package towards each type of buyer.
