seriously, id like to know too >__
 
I will ask my cousin the next time i see him. Overall I would give the case an A on protection, but a F on portability.
 
[quote name='Deefuzz']I like that last one. Anyone know of anywhere else to get one like it without the graphics on it? Maybe in different colors as well?[/quote]

There are several cases out there with the same design.

Here's one at Circuit City:

Hori also makes some that come in pink/white/blue/black:

I believe Gamestop sells one with their logo on it...yuck.
 
[quote name='Deefuzz']Perfect! That white Hori one looks like exactly what I am looking for.

Thanks for the link![/quote]

Glad I could help!

Great choice by the way, I have a black Hori and it's been great for my needs.

J&R has been selling the black pouch as part of a Hori package for some time. I've been trying to get to a product page, but J&R's server is currently being updated.

That said, I quite like the Hori pouch, which seems far more tasteful and better constructed than the annoyingly designed and badly made equivalent I bought when the 2000 first came out and there was nothing else.

Been out at Gamestop for at least a month now. I got one yesterday, but I returned it today. The case sucks. The lid/cover doesn't even hold still. Once you open up the lid, it just flaps loosely. I do like the grips on it though.

I returned it for one of the Nerf cases at Gamestop. It is by far, one of THE best and most comfortable cases I have held in a long time. Plus its only $14.99. It's exactly like the Playgear by Logitech, except it's Nerf!

I've tried out a few cases (even tracked down a monstrous G-Pak, heh!), but hands-down my absolute favorite is the basic model from RDS:
PSP case
I carry it everywhere--small enough to be portable and unobtrusive, but large enough to carry plenty of supplies. I usually have my slim with the fat battery, 3 or 4 UMD's, a cleaning cloth, earbuds, and sometimes a spare battery. It has a carbiner clip, so I snap it onto a belt loop if I don't want to carry it.

Circuit City frequently has them on sale for $10 (like last week).

Word of warning: their deluxe version of this case, which is larger, was a real let-down. It's much fatter, but it has extra padding, so the interior space is about the same. I much prefer the smaller one.
 
I never used the basic case from RDS, but I did just pick up the 'Deluxe' today, and am very pleased. I wanted a case that could hold the power cord/brick in addition to the usual stuff, so it is just what I needed.

Front pocket holds a 2000 quite snugly. Rear pocket holds anywhere from 4 UMDs and earbuds, memory sticks, USB cable etc. Or you can go 8+ UMDs in the rear pocket as well. The center pocket can hold the AC adapter, car charger, etc.

If you don't have the desire to carry your AC power cord/brick with you, then the basic case is probably a better choice.

The deluxe is listed at $19.99 on CC's website, and I got them to pricematch (24.99 at the store) today at the brick and mortar while picking up Patapon for $9.99.

Depending on what you need, either of the RDS cases are a nice choice.

I just picked up a God Of War bundle yesterday at Circuit City (using that $40 off a $199 purchase at Circuit City posted elsewhere on this site) but I was in a little bit of a hurry so I didn't have time to shop for accessories. I think I may head back there and pick up one of these when I get a chance. Thanks for the recommendation.
 
the rds cases are nice but they are very snugged... it barely fits if you try to put a protective case over the psp slim. they were 9.99 last week at circuit city but the price went back up to 14.99. some places even have it at 19.99, insane! :eek:
 
Thinking about getting that Joytron crystal case for my God of War slim that I just purchased today. Does it add a lot of bulk to the system? Any pics with the God of War Slim and the Joytron case?

Thanks :)
