They better show off some stupid impressive visuals and have a competent multiplayer service.

And Zelda. And Metroid. And Mario.

Otherwise, I don't think many people will care. Or is this supposed to be like that VG cats comic, where Nintendo promises to come back to the 'core' audience?

Have to agree with you there. That was the most half-hearted attempt at energy. The impression I got from the guy was that he didn't know what the hell he was holding and was hoping the audience would have burst into applause.

They could have got anyone better than that dude. At least someone that believed in the Play.

@MeAndTheFanboy Oh thank goodness. You had me worried for a second. Then I saw you set the bar so low with matching the gaming experience of iOS.

If this is just a PSP with a phone instead of a PSP2 with a phone, I'd probably skip it.

It would be so easy to share the same chipset for the PSPhone and PSP2. Qualcomm's newest SoC is pretty sick and will be available 1H of 2011

Well it certainly looks good. It's missing something. Can't quite my finger on it...

Virtual controls should stop being used.

Alright, let's think about this for a second. Is it really smart to create two different segments?

We already know that the PSPhone is using Qualcomm parts. So it isn't using MIPS anymore and moved over to ARM. So more than likely this *will not* be running old PSP games (though they could port them over).

It behooves Sony to produce the iPhone/iTouch model. You can a PSPhone which is a PSP2 with a phone and the bare PSP2 by itself. To those saying that a PSPhone that is a PSP will kill the battery are obviously not aware of how little power ARM SoC's actually take. The biggest energy draw is the screen and modem.

And to top it off, couldn't you just stop playing? Does everyone just play until the battery dies? Dismiss the battery alerts like crazy and get every last oz. of gaming in?

Sony better take on the iPhone/iTouch model or else they will create a pretty big divide.

Stoked for a real gaming smartphone. Please have real analog nubs!

@bigwhiteyeti First rule of the beta club. You don't talk about the beta club.

Only 15 comments. Zenimax is seriously a company everyone should be watching.

They are making some really smart moves.
