  1. Comment - The Sony PSP perception problem: Is it losing its luster?

    (Feb 11, 2009 - 2:14 AM)

    I’m kind of new to the PSP but not too Sony,
    I bought the hand held device for its whole package I wanted an mp3 player with video play back, and plan on picking up the Creative Zen. While I was at Game stop pricing the PS3 I saw the PSP on the shelf and was drawn to its large screen.

    I turned it on and loved the bright and vibrant color screen, and asked the clerk if it played mp3’s and if I could place my own videos on too it, he said yes and I purchased it and a few accessories and two games.

    The device has great potential, but its creators (Sony) have a kind of self destructive character flaw, for some reason they don’t pay attention to the world around them to say the least.

    It’s like if we were all in a desert standing next to a well and dying of thirst because we couldn’t reach the water.

    Nintendo invents a cup with a long string attached and that’s great we now can reach the water.

    SONY invents a high powered water hose which is better but there’s no button to turn on the pump, instead just a hand crank.

    SONY has to step up and bring their “A-Game” with them. The PSP is powerful but its true potential is being wasted.

    some ideas:
    1. Be able to push up the screen and show a keyboard ( most kids love texting any way)
    2. Hard drive like (CJWalker) posted
    3. Open up an SDK and let people develop for it
    4. Let people make small user based games for it ( Microsoft has XNA)
    5. Built in GPS
    6. Make more than one Play list for MP3’s
    7. Put a High Definition Video camcorder (Think Flip video) and with wireless send right to blip.tv or YOUTUBE.
    8. Put better web browsing
    9. Better Volume
    10. Away to link professional DSLR Cameras (Think Nikon) so photographs don’t have to buy a portable DVD player to connect to and show the pictures on a larger screen they could connect to the PSP especially if they are shooting on location.
    11. Put some network Administrators diagnostic tools on it for fix computers

    SONY needs to take a deep breath let it out slowly and start thinking clearly
    But hey what I know it’s just my opinion.
