Start with On-Time Releases... then you can start to think about competing in the big market (In the U.S. at least)

PS2 games would be impossible let alone PS3 games. Try fitting a 3.2ghz processor, dedicated graphics card (notice i said 'card' and not 'chip') and cooling device into a small handheld device or 4-50gb games onto flash memory... its just never gonna happen at this point and time. Plus I can't see how they could put a UI on top of the PSP's interface without it being inconvenient or complicating its own phone features.

PS3 games.. sure, impossible at this day and age. PS2? Your giving it too much credit. Any decent mobile chip can pull ps2 graphix these days. No single disk ps2 game was 50gb. If they can get ps1/2 games to run smoothly and open them up for either digital download or either some sort of side loading from a computer, that would give Sony an advantage out of the gate. How many thousands of ps1/ps2 games are there? Put some phone and web capabilities on there, have a carrier subsidize it to keep the price low, and go into all out war with Apple.

sony can't even do the psp right i bought this psp go and its useless the downloadable games are still high and u can trade them in like a real game for store credit and its not a lot of options hardly any software updates just pretty much plain pointless waste of $250 bucks so im kinda upset with sony they need to do a better trophy system on the ps3 as well like the xbox 360 they need something new and different

wrong. REAL gamers spend most of their time playing hardcore games in PC or XBOX 360 or PS3, but they still play on portable devices such as PSP, DS, or even any phone.
