    Thinking about selling psp

    I was blown away by my psp at first, but it's starting to gather dust. I got my daughter a Nintendo DS for Christmas, and I gotta say I'm enjoying some of the games on it more than what's on my psp. Has the psp lost its luster for anyone else? Are there any great games headed in the psp's direction? I know "MLB The Show" is coming soon, but I don't know if that's enough to keep me from selling it or trading it in.

    I bought the PSP the second week that it was out. I was amazed by the system and then lost interest during the summer. So I traded the system + games to EB towards XBOX360 prepay. Come November, after 3 months with no PSP I finally regretted getting rid of it.

    I go back and buy another one. I wouldn't get rid of it as more good games are on the way over the next few months. If you want to get rid of it go ahead, but I'm not selling it again. It cost me more money getting another PSP, larger memory card than before, and games.

    If you want a DS and could afford it, spend the money outright. I regret getting rid of this the first time around and wish I had not.

      i have no time to play a portable system. can't do it at work and when i'm at home i'd much rather be playing a console. i think portables are good for children and people with a lot of downtime on boring jobs.

        Mine collected some serious dust this summer but I am not going to part with it. I stopped playing it because it hurt my hands when I played for a period of time. My wife just got me the grips for christmas and its like a brand new toy again. I can actually hold the psp and play without my hand cramping up. I think the next wave of games are going to be very good. I am looking foward also to getting Mlb 06: The Show this March.

          Or if your wife likes to watch the tv where the console is hooked up.

            I dont even use my psp anymore to play games, all i do is watch episodes of sealab 2021, aqua teen hunger force, futurama and family guy. I also downloaded all the emulators and play all the old nes, snes and genesis games. I played alot of hot shots, and still come back to it. Im waiting for something to come along to wow me, but till then, im fine watching my shows in bed before i go to sleep.

              MLB the Show should be good.

                  And people who travel a lot. Other than that, it totally is useless to me.
                  Quit making your stupid YouTube videos and start playing the game.

                        The RPG lineup is KILLER next year...and there's a few more classic Sony franchises coming out next year.

                        And you can't forget Ghouls and Ghosts Extreme.

                          How are the grips? Are you able to pop out the system without a problem after using them grips?

                            These are the grips that I have:



                            This one does not have the charger in it. You can put the handles in two positions and the system slips in and out pretty easily, without any scratches I might add. For me it was a must because I could never find a comfortable position when playing with the psp.

                              They look really sweet. I play mine while it's in the Playgear Pocket which helps make it a bit more comfy. For $30, is that all that these are is just controller grips. It seems a bit expensive for that or am I wrong.
