Ok so more bad news for those waiting for the PSP, it looks like it will be delayed again..and I amnot even sure they will hit the american market on time. Over here in Tokyo it still is one per customer and really scarce to get your hands on.

I Knew this would happen, due to the fact they still in short supply over here there was no way they were going to hit there target.

Why are things like this so delayed? Is it really production problems, or are they doing it deliberately to whip everyone up into a frenzy, or be tempted to go and buy the item for a vastly inflated price elsewhere?

It's the same with Ipod shuffles, there's still a waiting list for them, I would have thought a company like Apple (and Sony with the PSP) would have the logistics and organisation to get the right quantities of products out to their markets.

Or am I being very naive again?

Japan consoles are most likely to have the nice Sharp screen. The US ones will have the Samsung (which are a bit dull)

The US one gets Spiderman2 movie free, the Japan gets a music, movie, and game demo UMD disc.

The Japanese one is cheaper overall as well since you can get the basic if you want.

You can only get a value pack in the US

@tempsonyfreak

i ordered mine from audiocubes.com got the value pack and metal gear acid, it came to $418 which is just over £200. ordered it on saturday and hopefully i should have it by friday.

£200 for a valuepack plus 1 game is not bad i think, i wouldnt be suprised if the value pack cost £200 in the UK

1 value + 3 games + screen protector for 210.
