Not much room to make it pocket size if the screen stays as big...

Yeah I know. I'm guessing the HDD and GPS rumour is no-way-Jose gonna happen.
Probably just be slimmed down a la DS Lite, with same functionality as a regular PSP.
And a price drop.

I really don't have a problem with the design of the current PSP, but depending on the look/size I might have to trade up for it.

they should put more than 5 good games on it -- that might help...

I still don't understand people's problems with the battery... it's lasted me long ass times (3 days of hourly play, still charged). I think the main problem is that people don't like charging it...
isn't their an improved battery made by sony already? like 30 min more of gametime? :lol:
and again with the PSP negativity... the system has a ton of good games, it's just a matter of if you want to dig for em... then again I'm biased a bit since I enjoy portables over home consoles, so don't pay attention to me.

It would be nice if they could get the new version of psp to have a linux operatingsystem and model it just like the ps3. On gametrailers theres a video of terrasoft talking about linux, They say that the ps3 itself can be used as a development tool. With that I say, let the psp run like a pocket pc running linux. that way homebrew in linux for the psp, and the ps3.

Well, they need a new design or a price drop it appears
From 1up
The only redesign I can see them doing is like the DS with a flip screen. There is no way to keep the screen the same size and have the same controls.

There's something ironic about this statement combined with your signature. A sig, by the way, which is roughly the size of ain' Buick! Trim that noise down, hombre.

the only thing that would make me buy it is if it has a) longer battery b) homebrew (yea right) c) smaller design (a foldable screen would be cool, sure would make it smaller. i seem to remember a concept image of one). if all of theses demands are not meet i will probally not buy one, maybe

How can you redesign and not address the main flaw. If they had 2 analog sticks, than I don't think there would be any question of which the better handheld system is between it and the DS.

I'm not buying one until homebrew is fully up and running and this includes ISO loaders and emulators ala 3.10 OE-A. Also, some suggestions:
1. Extend the battery life by at least 50%
2. Ditch the UMD format (include a large flash drive)
3. Add a second analog stick and figure out where to put 2 more shoulder buttons
4. Default the volume to be louder
5. Fix the D-pad. Just copy the SNES one exactly
IMO, the PSP is a great little piece of hardware - but only for the homebrew stuff that's going on. There are no great original games for it but there are a ton of good ones.

You guys do realize that the quotes IGN used from the European Sony exec. are the same ones that Sony shot down later last week, right? IGN is just late in posting the guy's original comments. The Sony retraction/negation of his comments still stands. I think this showcases IGN's delay in "breaking" news.

You do know that Nintendo apparently owns the patent to a cross-shaped directional key, right? It's quite brilliant how Sony got around that by making the D-pad into four distinct "buttons".
The last thing the PSP needs is more stuff. One analog stick is enough. Have you guys played the Neo Geo Pocket? That thing is genius with the springy slider that you can move to switch the stick from digital to analog mode. Sony should copy that.
If Sony throws in like 8GB of internal flash space, a sharper screen, and maybe a faster and quiter UMD drive (8x sounds good!) that would be keen. Maybe remove the finger-tearing power switch, the inexplicable Memory Stick/wifi switch, make the current UMD tray a slot loader, get rid of some of the labels and add more icons, instead! Make it look simple and clean -- like a MacBook!

Well, IMO Sony will eventually bring out a redesign; they're #2 in the handheld market and have a great library of games ... at this point their biggest issue is the freaking price. For some reason, Sony thinks that because they lead the console market that they can affect the consumer's perception of value; honestly I think 2006 has shown them that they're wrong.
Sony needs a price drop, and they need it fast. Developers won't pour money into a system that isn't selling, hence why there's a lack of decent new titles on the horizon. If Sony were to drop the price to a competative level (IMO 129 - 139) they would see the sales increase. I'm not going to turn this into a DS vs. PSP thread, but when Mom buys little Bobby a new handheld and sees that she can get one for $129 and a few GBA games for another $30, she's going to see that as a good value over spending $200 for the system and another $20 - $30 for one game.
Secondly, Sony needs to get off their asses and open the PSP Store. Along with the price drop, the ability to play PS One games (without homebrew) without a PS3 would help sell the system. Stop pushing it as an MP3 / Movie / Internet player ... it's a game console, push it as so.
After they've established and expanded their core audience, THEN you bring out your redesign hoping to capture those who have found VALUE in their current PSP. Along with this, don't charge the price of a Wii for the new system; a handheld IMO should never cost more than a 2 year old console (looking to the future).
Anyway, that's my long-winded opinion of what Sony needs to do to regain it's foothold on the market (that and drop the PS3 down $200).

Valid points all around, Crimson (save for upping the UMD drive speed, since that clashes with most people's desire to see a longer lasting battery). One thing people seem to want, but I don't really understand, is internal memory. On one hand, it makes sense to create incentives for buying and storing PS1 games; on another, it creates an invitation for piracy, something Sony's been dismal at protecting. The PSP is only as strong as it is profitable, and with an easy opportunity to pirate and store games, it won't be profitable.

Xbox360 has a circular disk with a cross on top of it which is a terrible beast only Microsoft could think up. As accurate as IPod controls it is. I push down and it moves either left or right. Sometimes people think I'm drunk because I keep moving in every direction except the intended one when I use that thing.
The Dreamcast pad emulates the 3d saturn pad more than Nintendo's stuff. It was able to get away with including a cross shape by changing how the pad works by altering its internals. It did shock me when I first saw a cross shape on a non-Nintendo product. Good move Sega!

I think if Sony wants to go the way of downloadable software (which IMO I would like to see) they need to add local flash memory; it doesn't need to be alot (512Mb - 1Gb) but enough to wet the mouths of the buyer.
Unfortunately there's always going to be piracy, but if Sony makes a effort they can help ease that pain. They've already started with the "key" on downloads from the Sony Store; but what they need to do is require a Sony Store ID to purchase games / downloads, then encrypt the game using a combination of your ID and PSP serial number (which would be registered to the PS Store) to play the game.
When the software arrives on your PSP, it checks the internal serial number as well as your Sony Store ID (both which would be stored locally on the machine) and lets the software boot up. A combination of the local (serial number) and global (Store ID) variables would help guard against the software being played on a diffferent machine.
As for supporting Homebrew (as someone earlier said), it'll never happen; the minute Sony supports homebrew is the minute they lose control of their own system.

You're kidding with this, right?
So Nintendo were damn near benevolent saints in what they did during Christmas of 2005? The DSLite was on the drawing board in Nintendo's offices (probably since 2004). It's getting near finalized at this point! The Fat DS is the "must have" toy of that year. Software flowing like rain. Glowing reviews across the board! Children everywhere tell mommy and daddy that they want Santa Claus to get them the NINTENDO DS. Animal Crossing, Tony Hawk, Mario Kart are all coming out, The wifi push is happening, the DS is really taking off as a platform.
Christmas then comes and goes and millions of children across America wide-eyed with joy tear open their wrapping paper to find their new Nintendo DS systems. Then in January, Nintendo's drops a big one.
"Hey, Guys. Liking your new shiny toys?"
"Cool"
"BTW. New DS coming."
"Old one to be phased out."
That was just low of Nintendo and you all know it.
I can imagine the board meeting.
"OK, we need to clear out that there inventory of them old DS"
"What would be the fastest way to do that shit?"
"Christmas? Gotcha!"
That's just screwed up man. Microsoft probably wouldn't be that evil. The system was barely ONE YEAR OLD at that point!
I almost prefer Sony's strategy. Almost! Releasing some nice but really friggin' overpriced thing and then like slowly making it suck less and cost less over time. They stick to their guns!
Because of this I am not picking up a Wii until the Wii SP comes out. You just know it in your heart that there is one coming.

I'm enjoying my PSP do to custom firmware but my 3 biggest complaints about the system are:
UMD - It allows for a lot of space but sucks for battery life, loading times, etc.
Controls - Work well for some games but I feel like I am fighting them on enough games to be annoying.
Ports - Wouldn't be so bad if most of them feel superior when played with a dual shock.

Wow, I'm not sure how this rant correlates to what you quoted. My point is that Sony needs to establish itself beyond what it has. Yeah it's shit that Nintendo brought out a new console a year afterwards, but it was selling like hotcakes and they KNEW people would eat it up ... they HAD their core audience. IMO Sony isn't at that point yet where people will buy a new PSP because it's a new PSP; they have not saturated enough of the market to pull it off UNLESS (big unless) they are able to take the technology to the next level (ala Nintendo DS) AND produce it at a price that people will find acceptable (which Nintendo has done with the DS).
Personally, I would buy a new PSP if it dons a second analog stick. I could give a shit if they give me nothing but PS2 ports ... the PS2 has a ton of good games. I'm looking for something that offers me the power of a home console with the convenience of mobility. Sony is almost there, and if / when they do bring out an updated PSP I hope they take into consideration the common problems that plague the current system. Again, none of this will mean jack-shit if it's not priced to move.
EDIT: DO NOT see this as a rant against Sony, I use my PSP 10x more than my DS; simply put I'm saying that Nintendo seems to understand consumer marketing, at this point, better than Sony when it comes to handhelds.

I can agree to that. I remember when I got the GBA...then SP...there was micro but I didn't bother. I also didn't get the DS because I knew there was going to be another version...which might have 1 more "revision" before the next one and waited because of another color (black, which I got). So I'm waiting for the black wii sp ++ or whatever it's going to be called.
I'm curious to see what design concepts they have for the psp revised. But I'm more interested to see if there's going to be a psp2 w/dual analog support.

No one says you have to get the new version. Why even bother if it's the same system, with only cosmetic differences? Technology improves everyday and consumers benefit, especially financially since the older technology becomes more affordable. If your current system works fine, it makes absolutely no sense to buy it for anything other then mental issues.
When they say redesign, I think Playstation to PSOne, DS to DS Lite. If they add another nub, remove the UMD, etc, then it's no longer the same and I would consider it an upgrade. However, improving the nub, the battery, the square button would be nice improvements.
