Phantom Roxas Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 In my opinion, these are basically the Game Boy Micros of this generation, being unnecessary redesigns of their previous incarnations. Stick to the DSi and the PSP Slim & Lite. Granted, the DSi XL may have some redeeming qualities, but the PSP go is truly terrible in my opinion.

fenrir Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 What was it that made the PsP Go suck other than it can't play UMDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Altair Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 The fact it lacks UMD. We are not ready for a complete digital market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 While both were unneeded, the Go was just an epic fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAG Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yes, both were completely unnecessary. However, the DSi XL still does provide some use and isn't an entirely bad idea, so I wouldn't go as far as calling it "the bottom of the barrel". The PSP Go, on the other hand, is a 100% downgrade from the PSP. If you already own a PSP, switching to a PSP Go would render all the games you have useless. And having to buy the same games twice is a definite no-no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Altair Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 It holds it's merit as to a person without a PSP but yeah. Also just remembered, there's an unwritten law that prohibits talking about the micro, we like to think it never existed =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you guys talking about? :S And yeah, PsP Go is fine if you didn't have a PsP prior to buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Oh, that law has been written for a while now. If you have the money to buy a PSP go, then buy a PSP-3000 instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSP#PSP-3000 It's pretty much like the PSP Slim & Lite, which is what I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombiepromking Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Roxas got it right. But i think the DSi was rather pointless too. I actually laughed the first time i saw a PSPGo commercial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmegaWave Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 I have the PSP 2000 (Modded...and loving it.) and the PSP 3001. YES! Not just 3000, mine actually lists it as "PSP-3001". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Roxas got it right. But i think the DSi was rather pointless too. I actually laughed the first time i saw a PSPGo commercial. The DSi has a camera, so it's not so pointless. My only problem was that it couldn't play GBA games, but I've gotten over that problem.

Nintendo gave child predators their ultimate weapon. Think about it, you see a guy with a DSi sitting on a playground bench and don't think anything of it...while he's actually taking pictures of your kids for reference. That and the loss of GBA functionality made it not worth buying. ALL of the DS games that interact with the GBA games are less fun now.

Phantom Roxas Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 First of all, the accusation of child predators is simply ludicrous. So they took a picture of your kid, and exactly how can they use that for reference? Secondly, if you have a DS or DS Lite, just use that for the Pal Park.

Or you could, you know, use a camera phone. Or an actual camera while posing as a photographer. That and the loss of GBA functionality made it not worth buying.That's what a Game Boy Advance is for. ALL of the DS games that interact with the GBA games are less fun now.Which is pretty much just Pokemon and Guitar/Band Hero No moar Pal Park for Pokemon :(This pretty much ties in with my previous statement.
