Yes, the PSP might make Nintendo reconsider what they are doing now.

With the added things of the SP, it would make sense to charge a little more. If they charged the same price for the GBA and the GBA SP, NO ONE would want the *edit* original GBA*, so you have to keep the prices seperate. It's common business pracitice to do that.

An example could be the difference between an Nvidia FX 5900 video card and the FX 5900 Ultra. You can't charge the same price for an extra thing or 2. Gotta make the consumers decide
