When the Go was announced I was all for it. But I've decided that I'd rather have the option to have UMD's and DL, so I'm actually going tomorrow to pick up the Dissidia pack (along with a new PS3 slim). I would wait for this pack, but it's a bit of a wait, and the system is the same, and I wanted both games anyway, so I'll just stick with the Dissidia pack.
I'm all for the Go. I think it's great to offer this new version along with the 3000, specifically for those who are ready to make a jump to DL only. It's a sharp looking system, and surely a sign of where Sony will go when the actual PSP2 is launched.

Too bad the US doesn't get GT PSP with the PSPGo like our friends across the pond. :(

It's another option. Sony isn't competing with itself, devs aren't making "Go only" games, You don't have to upgrade, nor do people have to worry about UMD's not being made.
Sony has been very clear from the very beginning as to what they are doing. I fail to see what all the confusion is.
It's just the weirdest thing to me.

With all jokes aside Strife Fox's response above mine makes perfect sense.

Ironically, the few GameStops I've visited in recent weeks have all removed PSP stock entirely from the walls and shunted it onto little end-cap shelves. GameStop HATES the PSP.

Not to mention $250 is waaaaaayyy too much to ask for slimed down five-year-old hardware. Remember, the original PSP launched at that price in early '05 in the US - almost half a decade ago.
Thinking about it some more, even the Wii is starting to become a stretch at $250, and that's a full fledged home console, not a portable.

Unfortunately, unless I buy it in the first 10 days for the GT offer it really does become too expensive.
It's either right at launch or the next price cut.

The PS3 slim is a $100 cheaper PS3 with all the same features, a great value. The PSPGo is an extremely overpriced gadget that has less physical hardware to offer and comes with a controversial media interface. Hardly comparable.

And yes, I'm still waiting for Sony's damned solution.

It's almost as bad as the mediocre US version of the Dissidia bundle.

Also you can download PSOne games from the Playstation Store. They work on PS3 and PSP and make really good inexpensive portable games.

For the records, I've never pirated a single PSP game. I only use it for apps and emulation... I prefer to buy games that are still in stores, thanks.
