Nintendo's just gaming attitude is perfect for me. When I have a handheld thats supposed to play games, thats all I want. Price stays reasonable and I can game all I want. I dont want a product with 10 things in it just so that they can charge a **** load more for it. Just give me the damn games.
Well, yes, it'd be a waste of money to get the PSP and just use it for games. The same can go for the DS though... WiFi, touch-sensitive screens, and voice-command are extra features that bump up the price a wee bit. With the DS, however, those features are added to enhance gaming.


Why am I going to buy PSP if it's so expensive?:
- I'd actually enjoy the extra features, and the extra features would spare me from purchasing another portable gadget if I ever wanted one (i.e. MP3 player, video player... I've though of getting one, but I don't want to carry around more than necessary).
- The game prices are super low.
- Like the consoles, this handheld has games that other handhelds do not... games that I have a higher compatability to.

And quite possibly most importantly...
- I do not have to rely on holidays or my parents anymore. I've got a job and no responsibilities, so it doesn't make much a difference if the PSP costs $100 or $300 as long as it ends up paying for itself with the hours that I put into it.
