Improvements for US launch

**Crimson_King** · 01-01-2005

i've been looking for a while but cant find any sources that can list any changes or modifications that sony will or has made to the PSP after it's initial launch. So i was wondering if any of you guys know or have any links you could share.(of course i'd hope the UMD ejection would be fixed but i was wondering if their was anything else too).

Also what would you guys like to see added///changed about the PSP from what we have seen and heard aboutfrom the release in Japan?

I'd love for extended battery life. and maybe even an extra battery in the bundle pack.

At best they may fix the UMD eject issue.

I would next expect to have an extra battery bundled or extra battery life. If they could have squeezed more juice out of the battery, they would have done so already and shipped it with such for the Japanese launch.

As for why they will not ship an extra battery, why do that when consumers will buy one if they want it. Then you can make up some of your loses on the handheld itself.

I'd love to but man, like I said, I ain't got no cash.

**SessDMC** · 01-01-2005

i would love to see any one saying the PSP suckes, while am holding it, then i could use the secret 'eject' feature, stright in between the eyes! :P

**watashi** · 01-01-2005

Well some people who have the DS find out about the PSP later on and then just says that is sucks but in reality they know it's better

**FmanFORPS3** · 01-02-2005

yes, if you compare the stats of the PSP and DS, youll see that PSP has a big advantage in moslty evrything...the only thing right now that i can think of is the touche screen, but then again, thats only ONE thing sorry DS, your just not up to the challenge

**watashi** · 01-02-2005

Actually I hate the touch screen, I think it's stupid...

**MiThRaZoR** · 01-02-2005

Well, and the battery. I would also have to agree on the touch screen and I don't like it either. I played a DS in EB Games (don't own one) and it was frickin' annoying.

**Blake** · 01-02-2005

More talk about PSP, less diss on the DS.

**Crimson_King** · 01-03-2005

yeah the screen is annoying and very awkward to use when playing games.

but it would kinda cool to modify your psp to shoot out sharpened UMD's to take out all the DS people.lol

but yah the main thing i'd love to see fixed is the battery life. and a battery in the bundle pack would be awesome too.

**FmanFORPS3** · 01-03-2005

im pretty sure they will make different battery packs...if you look at the current battery pack it is 1800mAh...i have an RC car and theres all sorts of batteries for it, mine is 2400 mAh and if i could hook that up to my future PSP :snigger man that would be sweet... anyways i doubt that they wont make different battery packs

**Jesus1** · 01-03-2005

Will it be a battery pack or like just some dubble a batties?

**SessDMC** · 01-03-2005

It will be a batery pack... Am sorry nintendo eat your heart out, sony is just better

**Crimson_King** · 01-05-2005

i don't know cause if they make a different battery pack then it will most likely be larger in size so therefore it might make it awkward.

**FmanFORPS3** · 01-05-2005

well, i think they are able to fir more mAh into the same size packs...i've seen battery packs that hold 1600 mAh and others that held 3600 mAh, but both were the same size

does anyone know how many volts the PSP battery has?

**Epsilon-Zero** · 01-05-2005

3.6 Volts 1800 mAh

its amazing that thing runs on just that

**watashi** · 01-05-2005

Well, I think that it can be because of it's architecture...

I think that's why it takes so long to ship each system out because Sony will win this Handheld War

**Crimson_King** · 01-06-2005

3.6 VOLTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!that is amazing. but still battery life needs to be upped and by a lot.

**FmanFORPS3** · 01-06-2005

we'll just have to wat and see if their going to release different battery packs

PS. i suggest we get back on topic about the release of the PSP in US.

**Epsilon-Zero** · 01-07-2005

yeah pretty amazing. but wonder swan ran on just One AA battery. thats 1.5 volts and thats running a LCD screen aswell.

anyway.. i hope SCEA has their customer support fully running for the psp when it arrives. i remember it took them 3 weeks to get the support running for the ps2. i guess they just didnt think there would be defects. hopefully they learned a lesson

**Crimson_King** · 01-07-2005

im sure they did and that the PSP will be in good condition and wont have the defects that the ones in Japan did(the superdeadly supersonic ejecting umd's lol)

**SessDMC** · 01-07-2005

About as deadly as japanise seasure robots...

(starts spazing out on the floor)

**Crimson_King** · 01-07-2005

next thing we know e'll see some spy comedy video where someone assassinates someone else with their PSP.lol

**Jesus1** · 01-07-2005

I am going to have to buy another battery pack then because I play a lot on my GameBoy Advanced. I play at my house a lot tho so I just leave it on the charger when I play.
