I figure I'd ask this here since I'm not too sure how much traffic the PSP section gets. Anyways, does anyone know if you put a protective case on the go, will it still fit in a dock? Looking at getting me a Go Guard for my psp.

Got lucky and found a pristine used black PSP Go at one of the local Gamestops tonight. But then I also figured out it came with an 8GB Memory Stick Micro M2 card inside (SCORE!) pre-loaded with Rock Band Unplugged, Tetris, and 7th Wonders. Sorta' had to grab it at that point. Pretty neat little unit actually.

Surprisingly enough the GS near my house had 1 in-stock. It was in pretty good condition. It came with R-Type Delta PS1 game and a couple of PSP minis. I guess the previous owner really didn't use it often.

I'm liking the formfactor (the screen is so much nicer looking compared to my older 2000), but even playing for short period of times my thumbs ache due to the buttons and d-pad being a litttle cramped.

I'll continue playing with it for the week before deciding if it should go back or not.

What are the advantages of buying a used PSPGo for $99 vs. using the Target coupon with a PM for the same price? Use of GS credit? Do you get to keep any of the games that were already installed on a system?

You get 7 days to decide whether you want it or not with GS. (Not sure what's Target's return policy on opened electronics)

The games will be deactivated if you put games or content from another account on it. So you can keep all the games so long as there aren't more than one account on the PSP.

I ended up getting mine a week or so back, and the 3 game voucher came fairly quickly (a few days, tops). I'm happy with the system. The only complaint, as others have said, is it's not exactly the most comfortable to play.

Another account...you mean your account once you buy it and log-in? Hmmm, guess I'll keep waiting for Target then.

I'm pretty sure you can't price match AND use the target coupon on the same item.

Also, both of the stores I checked out that had used go's had the system memory formatted.

It's YMMV but it is possible. Several of us earlier in this thread have confirmed it can work. It depends on who you get checking you out at CS.

I pretty much only play with the Dualshock 3.

I found one of these at my local gamestop in good condition so I picked it up. It came preloaded with ghost of sparta, patapon 2, little big planet, rockband unplugged, and Fifa 2010. Score!

If I link this to my PS account, will I be able to keep the games?

no! don't do that, the games will get locked without that account. You can try to get the login info from sony.

How can I do that? I may just play Ghost of Sparta and then link to my account..

/Is there a way for me to buy games on my account and have both accounts on this go? If not, it's no big deal.

GS about 90 min away has one. I have to make a trip to the apple store up there tonight so they said they'd hold it for me. Been looking for ages..can't wait!

That's still an awful lot of money for a failed handheld.

Define failed?
Misguided, perhaps.
I think most people who've actually touched a Go feel $100 is about right.

I was at a Gamestop today and they had it for $149.99 used....

Is Sony not making anymore. Target has been out of stock for a month or so. Was trying to use the $50 off coupon to see if I could get it for like $100. but, now Target is OOS and I dont think they will be restocking even their online is OOS
