I really regret not buying one March 2011 when the price was dropped to $129.99. I would have had a year to play it and it was already hacked then. But back then I wasn't into portables too much.

I bought the 2000 star wars system years ago at the full price of $200. I gotta admit though, I found it to be more fun than the wii,ps3, or 3ds that I currently have. Games are extremely cheap for it and pretty easy to find, coupled with the fact that CFW allowed me to play import games that would have never made it here like my all time favourite gundam VS series.

Have you considered picking one up used?

If you plan on legitimately purchasing games off the psn though, I recommend just waiting for a PS Vita price drop or some kind of price error to happen. You know its bound to happen. That or picking it up used. I'm pretty sure at this point they won't reduce the MSRP of the PSP, and are probably going to stop manufacturing them soon. I don't see them at certain big box retail stores in my neighbourhood anymore. If anything, they will be clearing them out like the tons of gamecubes walmart was clearing out a years back.

The selection of games on it are amazing and fun to play, Sony just couldn't market anything for shit during its life cycle.

I got one about 4 months ago when the Sony Store was dumping them for $60 in anticipation for the Vita. Pearl White model 3001.

The plastic is flimsy but it becomes sturdier once the MicroSD is placed in it. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Micro-SD-SDHC...item4164649ad6 You can also find some on DealExtreme. But the one I got was off of eBay. You can find all sorts of stuff like this.

I'll give it a try, how long did it take to ship to you from HK?

Anywhere from 10 days to 1 month. It'll usually arrive around the 20 day mark.

Usually, but I currently have a Dealextreme order that's 3 months old... If you find something relatively closer that costs a few cents more, it's worth it.

If it's that old, it's probably been lost. You should e-mail them for a replacement.

I'll only order from DX if I can't find it on eBay. With eBay you're 100% covered for anything damaged or that doesn't arrive.

Yeah I know, I did the other day. But still, the point is that it happens to DX. I won't knock them for it, and I still use them. But there's a reason they're one of the cheapest sources on the net.

Your best bet if your waiting is to see if they announce anything at E3 at Sony's Press Conference this summer. That's when many price drops are usually announced.

I'll agree with that.. if they don't announce a drop at E3 it's very unlikely to ever occur.

Wise words.

They'll probably only drop the thing to $99.

I think they're still in high demand because they can be hacked.
