GAMES:

Cartridges are back:
NGP adopts a new game medium, a small flash memory based card, dedicated for NGP software titles. Taking advantage of the flash memory feature, this innovative card can store the full software titles plus add-on game content or the game save data directly on to the card. By adopting flash memory based card, SCE will be able to provide game cards with higher capacity in the future, allowing developers to store more game data to deliver rich and immersive games.

I want one just for Uncharted lol, however I think the price is going to be through the roof. Looks like it's gonna be a fantastic E3 this year.

I'm telling you now, all they need is some great security software on there that is impossible to hack, then add trophy support and that will make it THE SHIT!!!!

Now I understand that people like to hack but if it's easy to hack then they won't have trophy support, and I want PSP Trophies DAMMIT!!!

Here's a gamespot video showing a closer look at it, with Uncharted on the screen

YouTube - Next Generation Portable (PSP 2) First...

[Scatigno]

Sorry about all the Gamespot videos dudes but they seem to be the only people uploading info to Youtube.

So this one states there WILL be trophy support for the NGP.

YouTube - Sony Next Generation Portable: Shuhei...

Getting this over the 3DS.

Apparently NGP is not the official title. Its a working title....thank God

[Scatigno]

Ye like Project Natal, NGP would possibly be the worst name of all time lol.

[Szuter]

Just call it PSP2.

That would be fine with me

[brooklyn]

one thing not mentioned much is that there is no removable battery

The Vita is dropping on the 17th December in Japan. No news on a western release date, although I am thinking probably march.
The worst part about this? The new Uncharted game is also a confirmed Japanese launch title which means I still don't get to play it first
