Introducing PlayStation Portable (PSP)

January 24th, 2007    Subscribe To Our Feed

The Playstation Portable (officially abbreviated as PSP) is a handheld game console by Sony Computer Entertainment. Its development was first announced in 2003, and it was officially unveiled on May 11, 2004 at a Sony press conference. The system was released in Japan on December 12, 2004, the United States and Canada on March 24, 2005 and in Europe and Australia on September 1, 2005.

The Playstation Portable has the ability to play video games, watch videos, listen to music, view images, as well as Internet browsing functionality. The Core Pack contains the console, a battery, and an AC adapter. The Value Pack contains everything the core does, as well as a 32 MB Memory Stick Pro Duo, earphones with remote control, a slip-case, a wrist strap, and a Sampler Disc (in some territories).

Optional accessories offered by Sony include the Playstation Portable headset, carrying case, extended-life 2200 mAh battery, headphones with remote control, battery charger, car adapter, accessories pouch and cleaning cloth, AC adapter, and system pouch and wrist strap.

Colours
Playstation Portable is currently available in five colours: black, white, pink, blue, and silver. The white variation is available in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, and Europe, while the pink variation is available only in Europe, Hong Kong and Japan. The silver and metallic blue variations were released on 14 December 2006 and 21 December 2006 respectively in Japan and Hong Kong exclusivel. A “champagne gold” coloured PSP is set for Japanese release on 22 February 2007.

Games
In addition to playing Playstation Portable games, there have been new releases of downloadable Playstation games that can be played via emulation for the Playstation Portable. Currently, the only official way to access this feature is through the Playstation Network service for Playstation 3.

Controls
Despite its movie and music playback capabilities, the Playstation Portable has primarily gaming-oriented controls (as opposed to the controls typical to television remotes or MP3 players): two shoulder buttons, the Playstation face buttons (triangle, circle, cross, square), start and select buttons, a digital 4-directional pad, and an analog stick. There is also a row of secondary controls along the underside of the screen, for controlling volume, music settings (either switching the audio off and on in games or selecting different equaliser presets), screen brightness, and a “Home” button for accessing the system’s main menu.

The Playstation Portable’s analog stick, often referred to as the analog “nub”, is a circular disc which slides rather than tilts. The analog stick can also be easily removed and replaced with an alternative third party stick.

With this PSP, it will now allow you to enjoy Playstation games on the go.
