Sony Delays PSP To 2005

Posted by simoniker on from the xmas-present-list-redrafting-in-order dept.

An anonymous reader writes "CNN Money's Game Over column is reporting that Sony has delayed the launch of the PSP handheld gaming system in the U.S. until it has a 'reasonable amount' of titles to launch with the system. This will push the PSP to 2005 in the States, giving Nintendo free reign in the holiday season - as well as a possible headstart for the Nintendo DS." Some earlier reports had indicated the PSP was due to launch worldwide in November 2004.

    thats really too bad! i was hoping to buy one of these!

    but delaying the system hopefully means a better selection of games at launch and a chance to tweak the system even further.

    Yeah, but won't people accuse Sony of being "Kiddy" if they call it a PlayMobile?
