It's going to take one hell of a handheld to beat any Nintendo handheld. Out of all the non-nintendo handhelds out there (other than the cell phone) I think... um... ZERO of them are still around?
Although the Neo-Geo Pocket gave the GBC a good run for its money, it also got beaten.
Even if Sony put a lot more effort into the PSP, they wouldn't get anywhere with it. The handheld market is all Nintendo, and at the quality these other handhelds are coming out, it seems that only they know how to create a handheld.
And that is why I have always had my faith in Nintendo.
You know there's going to be some idiotstick hacker out there the day before this game is released, while the game is being shipped, and boom. Hacked onto the Internet.
On release day, the stores are going to have their shelves stocked with the game and Valve is going to say, "Oops! We got hacked again! Now we must spend anoter 10 billion years recreating this game!"
The harsh reality of idiotsticks that can't wait.
But who needs the HDLoader anyways? A PS2 memory card already has tons of space on it. The only other use would be for Final Fantasy XI, but who needs FF11 except the "Fanboys of Cloud?"
Not me, I know that much. The battery issue is only one of the problems I think this is going to have.
And not to be a Nintendo fanboy or anything, but seeing how just about every other handheld besides the game boy has flopped, the PSP will, too.
It'll just be an N-Gage... with a better control scheme and no cell phone features.
I'm quite sure you guy's have heard of this already, but they're pressing for legislation that allows copyright holders to hack into suspicious computers and delete anything with their copyright on it.
That's just wrong... 2 wrongs don't make a right. (Maybe in math they do, but not here.)

Soon, I think they're going to need a fifth deparment: Solely to hold all the virtual crap they put out onto the Internet.
America Online: So easy to use, no wonder the internet's virtual sewers are overflowing with virtual crap!

Because most games only allow you to move a screen around. A console might be a computer, but it ain't a PC.
This gives me yet another reason to make sure my next machine is a Linux Box.

That's why we have billboards. Besides, how do they know that they'll pay attention?

1. Canada
That explains why Canada is totally incapable of doing anything that doesn't involve the internet. *coughhealthcarecough*
Woo, someone call me an idiot.

I had Mario vs. DK, and let me tell you; Sprites look a lot better on the screen/resolution they were intended to be in. Stop playing the ROM.
Woohoo! Possibly the gayest ISP has made one of their gayest decisions better!
