I'm pretty sure most of yall have seen this picture, and i was just wondering what yall think of the design, and whether you think it would be a comfortable or easy to adjust to handheld or not.
In my opinion, i'm not sure how long it would take to get used to the buttons that dont really stick up.. it seems like it'd be kinda freaky pressing buttons that arent really there.. or barely are :-P
also this is the article that went along with the picture:
Kutaragi-san did offer two new insights into the unit, one being that cell phone capabilities were being planned for the device. The second revelation was that PSP will not be a product so much as a product line, with various configurations of the device selling at different price points.
While it's by no means certain that this will be the final form the PSP takes, it does give a good bit of insight into the thinking behind the device. The central area on the "back" of the device(where the logo sits) is the UMD disk drive. It's hard to tell from these images were the memory stick slot would be placed.
The official prototype won't be seen until E3 2004, so it's safe to assume that many design elements will change between now and then. But we think Sony is definately on the right track!
apparently this is going to be another handheld that doubles as a cell phone :angry: I cant imagine playing a game and then being like.. i need to call a friend real quick *turns game off and puts it up to his face and starts talking into it* .. that just seems a little weird :-P
