Euro PSP launch delayed til summer, PSX (media centre) not dead yet

looks liek the PSP won't be launching over here until the summer as sony are making as many units as possible available for the US launch:

the PSX has been updated with 2 new models - the key feature in both being that they can export video to a memory card duo in a format compatible with the PSP - not in the same format as it is stored on the machine itself however, so approx 12mins/hour of vid is needed to encode into the correct format. OTher features are the usual improved tools rubbish, and DVD+R dual layer support. Expect it to be as much as a flop as before though, since the price is still a craaaazy 80,000 yen for the 250gb version and 60,000 yen for the 160gb version.

man i want a white ps2 with hdd and i want it now :smt071

 

I thought they had stopped production of the PSX as per a post I am sure I read here?




Also i saw in my local HMV store today

PSP 23March £199..................odd

 

Heh, SCEA screwing SCEE over with PSP shipments, forcing them to postpone their release plans.

 

that was a misunderstanding

sony had stopped the production of new units from the psx until the old ones are sold but intented that the whole systems isnt out of production

i just hope we get at least a little shipping of english menued psx cause a japanese one isnt really useable =(

 

Which means newer ones will never be produced.

 

could be but if they keep their cycle with swaping one hdd for the next bigger one they would run out of numbers pretty soon anyway 7700,7800,7900... =)

but please sony do a english psx if its pal or ntsc who cares...

 

PSX is NTSC now.
but inside Library ready show "PAL" it i can make sure in upgrade disc vol1,2,3
:/ my PSX 5000 may be not support psp......time to sold it get new one

 

but from what i heard you cant switch the menues to english right ?

 

SONY - RELEASE A PSX WITH AN ENGLISH MENU NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or just an option to change it to English (Nobody cares if it is NTSC because we all use RGB cables). And while you're at it change the BB Navigator menu to English too. It already has the option but it has been "greyed out".

What's the point of putting the option there if you can't blo*dy use it!!!!

AGH!!!! Why does Japan get everything. The UK is deprived............I'm moving.

 

dont move to germany... =)

how about we both lease a container and move together ? :smt043

the problem is they use japan as a testbaloon if it works they may consider sending it out to the world if it doesnt they just kill it
