PSP Delayed Into 2005?

Posted by Zonk on from the hype-counter-hype dept.

Thanks to the numerous readers who alerted us to the Gamespot article mentioning that the PSP may be delayed until next year. This analysis comes from games industry analysts and is the result of Sony's game title weakness and battery issues. David Jenkins at Gamasutra has additional analysis as well.

    I bet Nintendo's feeling pretty good about the DS right about now.

    Well, we prettymuch new this was going to happen. At least they are looking into the battery life issue, and it is a major concern if your portable handheld is only expected to last ~90 with it burning right through your hands ("Transisters running hot", according to the article).

    They need this thing to be delayed, to fix all of this problems, before releasing it to the general masses. We would prefer a working system for us to use and play with, instead of one with the heat of a thousand suns and a lifespand of a fruitfly.
