EU PSP Release Delayed Until Summer

Posted by Zonk on from the keep-your-patience dept.

Gamespot has the news that the European launch of the PSP is to be delayed by several months in order for the company to build up enough units to meet demand. From the article: "Americans need not fret--Sony has promised one million PSPs for its launch in North America."

    According to a friend of mine that works at Gamestop they're taking a large portion of the PSP's that were bound for Europe and bringing them here instead. Retailers were told by Sony to go ahead and up their preorder limits because of the Euro delay.

    I just hope that a mod-chip type device will be able to save the day bypassing region coding in both games and movies.

    Sony already stated that games will not be region-locked (last paragraph). They rarely are on handheld consoles anyway.

    But I agree you still have a problem with movies...
