It looks declicious....


in agreement with what you guys are saying, the Gameboy has always been a box. The Advanced made a flip up screen, making it somewhat more Advanced... no pun intended.

I think the PSP looks awesome, and with a screen that displays 16 million colors......... ahh heaven..

What are you implying? It's too big or something?

Well if you were a little keener on your measuring skills, you'd see that 170mm long is equivalent to about 5 inches.

Compact Disc


PSP


Those two are almost the exact same length.

If YOU were a little keener on the metric system, it would be too small. According to google:

170 millimeters = 6.69291339 inches

Maybe you should do the math yourself.

1 inch = 32mm

1 inch x 5 = 160mm

which is closer to 170 than 1 inch x 6 = 192mm

I used google.com's calculator. It is improbable to argue with a computer.

Regardless, was that what you were implying before about its portability? The size issue?

I'm a little erked at the size of the buttons and the analog pad. It looks like they're going to be hard to get a feel for because they look so small. For something comfortable, I envisioned the buttons bigger, and so I thought the whole unit was large like that.

I have a measuring tape in my desk drawer, there are 32mm in an inch, unless they changed the metric system after this measuring tape was made.

Anyway...back to talking about PSP stuff.

In addition, by way of demonstrating the PSP's movie playback capabilities, a clip of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children was shown playing on the system
That's one powerful machine.
