I'm glad it's modelled after the original model instead of the Go. I loved the first PSP so I'm also sold.

Sony just announced the new PSP2

http://kotaku.com/5744485/the-psp-2-revealed

The PSP2 is finally here. Sony revealed its brand new PlayStation Portable at an event in Tokyo today, giving us our first official look at the PlayStation maker's next bold foray into handheld gaming, the "Next Generation Portable." Here are the first details.

The Hardware
Sony confirmed many of the features of the PSP2 that we've already heard in the form of leaks, rumor and speculation. The PSP2 features a high-resolution, touch-sensitive OLED screen that's larger than the original PSP screen, tilt-sensitive SIXAXIS controls, dual analog sticks, front and back-facing cameras, and a touch sensitive back panel.

Sony boasts that the new PlayStation Portable is as powerful as a PlayStation 3. The device features built-in WiFi and 3G wireless connectivity and uses an all-new form of media storage for games—no more UMD.

For now, Sony is officially calling the new PlayStation Portable by its codename, Next Generation Portable or NGP. It will be out this holiday.

CPU: TBD
RAM: TBD
Storage:
Display: 5 inch OLED with 960 x 544 resolution
Wireless: WiFi, 3G, GPS
Inputs: Touchscreen, touch sensitive back panel, D-pad, L/R shoulder buttons, standard PlayStation buttons
The Games
Sony showcased a handful of games alongside the reveal of the new PSP, including new titles Little Deviants, Reality Fighters and Gravity Daze, plus games based on the following PlayStation franchises.

Uncharted
Killzone
WipeOut
Resistance
LittleBigPlanet
Hustle Kings
Hot Shots Golf

I'm sold! I'm really impressed with all the tech and ideas Sony and the developers have for it. I just pray Sony doesn't fuck it up like they did with the PSP Go.

If you can play PS2 games on it, I will be all over this. And a larger-sized, better quality screen with touch? Seems like Sony is feeling the pressure from smartphones as much as Nintendo is. I'll be interested to see what kind of media it uses. I'm glad they're ditching umd.

The device didnt look verry impressive to me just horable six-axis. Then you get near ps3 graphics no 3d, touch screens, and then touch button or some bs on the back. A cammera that when you more help the game move with you or something like that don't quite understand. But i saw no games there rely impressed me to be like oh i have to have a psp2.

Well at least they would have something against nintendo but i can see 3ds selling because of the 3d. I still do not see psp2 selling more then 3ds. The tech of the psp2 didn't amaze me basicly everything smart phones have already done minuse the calling.

Yeah, we'll see. I'm not so sure people give as much of a shit about 3D as the film industry, high-end tv manufacturers, and Nintendo seem to think or want to shove down the public's throat.

The second anolog stick made me sold on this. I have a psp and it sucks having to use the buttons to look right left down up. Such a bad design imo.

But i doubt there will be metal gear solid 4 for this new hand held. I think kojima wanted to show the graphics off the hand held could do, and metal gear solid 4 is still one of the best looking games out.

If its going to be as powerfull as the PS3, then why isn't the screen full HD? Shouldn't it be 1080p.

But, OLED is nice I guess.

I'm not a fan of the design, but two analog sticks has me excited none the less.

No more half-assed FPS portable games, thank heaven.

Slightly fug, but it's so powerful and easy to develop for. It's semi-BC with PSP games: You can download old ones. The storage medium for new games will be flash cards that hold the game, saves, and any DLC you buy.
