I think it was the PS3 that people made fun of for being huge. The PSP has always been a tight little device, especially after the 2k and 3k revisions trimmed some weight.
@weatherman: naw. I have a 'fatboy' psp (1000, launch model). It was universally panned for it's size and cost, saying that it would never get market share. After about an hour of solid play you feel like you wrists have aged 30 years; you have 'the claw' of pain. I love it to death but it weighs a ton. Lots to love in it for capability, and its trim by comparison to an original DS, but thats not saying a hell of a lot. This new DS though confuses me. I liked that the DSi/DS lite were nice and slender, easy to use, good controls.
@x40sw0n: No exaggerations in your post. None what so ever.
I still have my 1000 and since getting GT for it I have on multiple occasions played it for more than 6 hours straight with absolutely no physical problems at all.
@MacBandit: Hey whats the fun of posting without a little exaggeration? I have to admit, I have slender girly-wrists and a family history of Tendinitis. Probably the angle I was playing at; hard to get in a comfortable position when riding the light rail during rush hour (if you can get a seat at all).
@x40sw0n: I had the 1000 and the 2000 as well, and I can't say I had a problem with either. But I'm an adult - which is the intended market for the PSP, I imagine. By comparison I find the DS difficult to use, and the screen is tiny and lo-res. I guess that means I'm the target market for the DS-LL but I can't imagine buying one since most of the games for the DS are oriented to children, and the screen is larger but still lo-res so it just means it looks even crappier.
Kids arent getting the good gifts we used to get. My favorite gift was the 50 buck 300 in one electronics lab. If you wanted anything cool you had to make it yourself. #dsistudiokit
No biggie... the system has so little computing power that it can not only be emulated during its commercial lifetime on home PCs, but you can also set it to emulate in HD!

I love it! Yeah, I would have rather had a less exposed memory card and disc drive, but whatever, as he points out in his soothing voice, it's not a danger to anyone and it's not like he's trying to sell it to anyone. #portablegamecube
Seriously, after all that work, he couldn't put a plastic door covering the disc? Forget about losing a finger, what if it gets jostled and the disc falls of, shooting across the room slitting someones throat and no one is around with a video camera to catch the epic accidental death?? #portablegamecube
I think it's a decent idea, and he's put a lot of work into it, but the execution of the disc drive is a bit sub-par. The disk, as he points out, isn't a danger to anyone, but it doesn't look all that great. #portablegamecube
