Hey, wassup playas. I just wanted to tell you guys, if you hadn't preordered the PSP yet, where to get one. I have done my research and have found out where the big pimpin' places are to pre-order one. Look at this list below:
1. EB Games (This is where I preordered mine. Don't try going to GameStop, because ya can't get it there! I tired 3 different Game Spots, nothing.)
2. Ebay (Many people sell you an actual pre-order of the PSP plus a game, some selling from $300 - $400. Just search: "Sony PSP").
3. And finally for the fat donuts who just want to sit at home on their butts all day, you can pre-order it online at: http://www.lik-sang.com/list.php?nav=top&category=218 .
So your best bet is probably getting of your fat behind and drive to EB Games and pre-order that PSP. Go get some exercise.

I'm not preordering it. I'm waiting about 6 months after realease for the price to go down a bit then buying it. I also get a larger choice of games 8) I'll be getting the DS first though.

Haha, have fun waiting, the PSP price isn't going to drop that quick considering they aren't making much selling the PSP units. I'd say the price is going to drop in about 1 year - 1 year and a half. Gave fun Games_fan being the "uncool" guy with your foldable brick. I bet the PSP price will start at about $250 and NDs at $200. Oh yeah, and Ultimate Gamer, it costs $20 at EB Games to preorder it.

Dude ya gatta pre-order it if ya want it when it comes out, otherwise you won't get it. Do you remember when the PS2 came out? They were sold out everywhere for about 2 months! I just got mine last year! Well at least in California around Los Angeles they were sold out. But this time, I just played it safe by pre-ordering it, maybe it won't be sold out. Mayyybeeee.... Since NDS is attracting many people as well and they are both eating our wallets. :lol:

Looks like you missed half the post out i'll be waiting 6 months at the most to buy it and it will have a wider choice of games and i'm sure a shop were I live will drop the price a bit :roll:
ultimategamer2004
07-30-2004, 12:02 PM
yeah a better choice of games when you get it is a good thing but with all the other features of the psp it has quite a few other things than games to do on it although it is made for gaming! :lol:
games_ fan
07-30-2004, 01:31 PM
I know it has more features but also the memory sticks wil be cheaper and I don't want to pay more than £40 on a mem stick.
ultimategamer2004
07-30-2004, 03:20 PM
Well you wont get a very big one for £40 well in less than a cople of years time anyway for £40 you might get a 256mb i can get a 512mb for £82.
games_ fan
07-30-2004, 03:27 PM
A few months after psp comes out they will be cheaper so i might be able to get a 512mb then. We should get back on topic now.
ultimategamer2004
07-30-2004, 03:29 PM
Yeah!
I shouldent say anything in this topic cus like i said before i wont be pre ordering my psp.

I'll preorder it from Gameplay (the UK videogames e-tailer legendary for getting games to you days before launch). That way I can wander around Princes Street on launch night when people are queing, and taunt them.

it costs $20 at EB Games to preorder it.
Does it act like a normal preorder so that its 20.00 off the price you pay later?

Why doesn't ebgames.com have the PSP for preorder yet?
They have the DS for online preorder, but it looks like you have to pay the full $200 to preorder it.

I didn't know why either, but I went to the store and pre-ordered it. It's not on the site though, I don't know why. :shock:

We're all agreed that taunting non-owners is good, though? Because that's the important part.

If he does get one, hes just going to buy the same games I do, it makes me mad, because then when I want to play other games besides the one I have, and if I ask him he has the ones I have, I already Have them :twisted: . Right now he has Most of the same games I have for the PS2.
Yeah like somone i know 2 but not always with PS2 games everything in general!
benzo why wont the PSP sell out where you live? Canada i'm sure it will sell fast! Anyway =s i'm going to camp outside the store! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: 8) :P :D :) :roll:

3. And finally for the fat donuts who just want to sit at home on their butts all day, you can pre-order it online at: http://www.lik-sang.com/list.php?nav=top&category=218 .
I visited the specific link you provided and it says to pre-order before it ships on the 19th of November, 2004 and the price.... $0... oh that would be a dream if it would be for real :P ... but really, how can that be... it means that the PSP is somewhere out there all alone waiting for us to take care of it! :P
Btw nice 2 meet u... I am new here. I knew about PSP a long time but wasn't really that excited but yesterday it hit me and I wanted to buy one... I don't know why! I am not into gaming... I only have the classic PS One... not the small one but the one which Sony released at the very beginning :P ! Anw... nice to c u!
andr345
08-23-2004, 09:30 PM
Oops... :oops: ! Realised that I mixed the months... november is in two months from now... I though the month passed; what has gotten on to me?? :P
Anw... My point in general is that this site ships the product before both the launching date in China and Europe!
PseudoChron
08-23-2004, 09:35 PM
But November is the launching date in Japan, isn't it?
This is from that site:
Release date of the unit is not confirmed and might change.
The product is listed with a dummy price.
andr345
08-24-2004, 06:43 PM
But isn't the release date in China supposed to be in December?
Btw I did see what you typed but wouldn't the company know by now?
ultimategamer2004
08-24-2004, 07:57 PM
The only thing i am bothered about is the UK release in March.
sworder
08-24-2004, 08:35 PM
March is a long time to wait, at least for me.
ultimategamer2004
08-24-2004, 08:42 PM
6 months that isnt too long! I mean you want quality dont you???
draco04
08-26-2004, 04:48 PM
6 months is'nt long at all to be waiting i mean look at how long a wait it was when you first heard about the psp yeah now looking at that this is no time at all.
ultimategamer2004
08-26-2004, 07:09 PM
Yes over a year to wait if we dident wait we wouldent get as gooder product as we will with the PSP.
gamingmonkey2004
08-26-2004, 10:10 PM
i dont see why 3 people voted for NDS...i just dont see whats so great i mean wow...two screens. wouldnt that make it more expinsive? dont forgot about those amazing N64 graphics so it has to be atleast twice as much as PSP! i have to get one! (before people flip out this is my opinion) o yea you get what you pay for...what you want high quality graphics with amazing fetures other then playing games...or two screen with PAPER MARIO! yeah!
draco04
08-29-2004, 04:38 AM
well if that is what people are into you really can't hold it aginst them...personaly i think that the two screen thing is redickuless i mean there is really no point with some games but i would guess they will make the games for those screens but on the psp subject i really havent founs ime to reserve one and don't know if i will i mean i want there to be time to see if any bugs pop up in the system. i don't want to buy one that ends up with some bug like my ps2 did. so i'll wait about 6 months or so....i know that seems like a long time but it take a while for those bugs to take afect and if it is going to save me from having to buy another one then another 6 months is worth it. :D 8)

08-29-2004, 02:16 PM
well i hope the release doesn't get pushed back because i would like to have one on or shortly after my birthday which is in March or at least some games for my birthday ill buy the unit
ultimategamer2004
08-29-2004, 04:17 PM
Yeah should be ok i think i have my £210 reserved for it! :D
draco04
08-30-2004, 03:32 PM
well i hope the release doesn't get pushed back because i would like to have one on or shortly after my birthday which is in March or at least some games for my birthday ill buy the uniti see that you are from the us and sony has said that the us releace will be before march but that is all they said they just left use hangen....but anyway you really don't have to worry. :D

yea you dont have to worry...unless your bday is march first then you will have a problem with shortage. but i mean if its pushed back just ask that your parents just wait until its released or get the money from them
draco04
09-02-2004, 05:04 PM
well it really would'nt matter if it's march 1st he could just reserve it and then pick it up when he can then there would be no shortage even if he did'nt have the money it's only like 30 to reserve a copy so he could pay the rest when he got the money. :D
gamingmonkey2004
09-02-2004, 09:08 PM
reserving is stupid ive had to many bad expireinces. its like you reserve it so you get one so it doesnt run out but yet they still seem to run out even though its reserved.
draco04
09-02-2004, 11:56 PM
:shock: where did you reserve your at....i've never had that happen to me the only time i've been told that it could happen was if i did'nt pick it up within 2 weeks but that was a hollywood video...was it a gamestop....i don't know that sounds kinda screewy to me because they keep all the reserve copys in the back room and they don't even come out intill you come by to get it well anyway is there anyone else out there that that has happend to....hmmmm ....that's so odd.
gamingmonkey2004
09-03-2004, 01:06 AM
yea they are like. someone comes in and they are like i want blah blah and they are like ok one sec....hey look this kid reseved his lets just sell his cause the game has been out for 3 hours now ha ha ha...
draco04
09-03-2004, 03:41 PM
really well can you tell me where at ...you live in houston right i think i heard you say that somwhere...so do i so could you tell me what store so i can make sure not to reserve anything there.
gamingmonkey2004
09-03-2004, 09:26 PM
most gamestops do that stuff cause they think its funny..but it was the willowbrook one
draco04
09-04-2004, 01:28 AM
that horrible they sould not be able to do that... it should be some kinda law if you go to pick up like a reserved copy and they don't have it then you should get it for free..or somthing like that ....yeah that would be good. :lol: 8)
gamingmonkey2004
09-04-2004, 01:33 AM
they are like uhh well we didnt pre-order enough and i was standing behind a person that got someones pre-ordered game even though they didnt pre order one...grr
draco04
09-04-2004, 04:08 AM
that is so stupid i would kill somone if that happend to me ....i reserve all of mine at hollywood video...i'm sure you know where that is ....i've found that they are cheeper then gamestop that's just what i found though you might know somthing that i don't.
gamingmonkey2004
09-04-2004, 10:15 PM
yea well games that i want to reserve i cant. cause i got a BestBuy gift certificate and the only thing you can reserve is GTA:SA or HALO2...as most people can guess.
draco04
09-07-2004, 04:32 PM
well those games are the most popular but they sould have more games to reserve then that. well at least that's what i think.
gamingmonkey2004
09-08-2004, 09:36 PM
yea they should i taked to one of the guys and he said "o well if you cant reserve it that means we should have enough in stock" WTF!? how can you predict how many people are going to show. GT4 and MGS3 are top titles..and you cant reserve them...sounds stupid
draco04
09-10-2004, 01:15 AM
not stupid.........AN OUTRAGE!....who does that so dumb.
gamingmonkey2004
09-10-2004, 08:46 PM
i know it sounds very stupid. i bet that if i go there opening day of GT4 they will be out of stock because they dont like me or something. i mean MGS or GT4 was reservable which is stupid...but the had like 50 million Halo 2 reserve cards and the same about of GTA:SA reserve cards
