Mag Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 I have a better chance of getting my hands on an imported psp (jap) than the america psp. Any difference or regrets I about to face ? (with the exception of sony critism). I just like this psp be the same as the american release, surely no issues whatsoever with the hardware. I'm thinking right now the only thing bothers me is probabbly the language. suggestions please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate playing Japanese games, since I dun know what the flock they are talking about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoMaster Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 The hell, you shouldn't have any trouble getting a PSP in the states. Besides I wouldn't recommend you importing because if anything happens to it (dead pixels, sticky buttons) then you have to go back to japan to exchange it.

Wizard Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Can't watch R1 movies, crappier warrenty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 (edited) yeah the warrenty is an issue, umd movies are region encoded but the games are not. so if you wanna get the umd movies you'll have to import those as well. from what I understand the language can be set to english so no problem there.last I looked on Ebay there were still american PSPs to be had for retail price.really it just depends on if the warrenty and umd movies are important to you. but if you import you have the crazy shipping costs.I'd check with some retailers in your area first. there have been alot of reports of stock in walmarts, bestbuys, ect.

Mag Posted March 28, 2005 Author Share Posted March 28, 2005 You can't watch region 1 movies ? wtf.. you gotta explain more about it. Also.. I'm doing a little trade offer, someone own it already here in the city, just trying to make sure if the psp shares the exact similiarities with the american psp.

Wizard Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Only movies have region codes, games don't. And possibly music as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluestinger X Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 does kinda suck that the movies have region code.. i was hoping to maybe get some asian horror films and stuff. I could care less about american movies on this thing lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
