If you get the piano black PSP slim you will need a memory stick to save your games. A 1GB is plenty. If you want to get PS1 games from the PS store though I suggest a bigger memory stick, 2GB or 4GB.

You could get the Daxter Bundle Pack, it has a silver PSP slim, a 1GB memory stick, Daxter game, and Family Guy video. It is a better deal if it interests you.

Youll need a screen protector, a Hori brand one would be the best.

A usb cable will be needed if you want to put wallpaper, themes, and games from the PS store.

I dont know about getting the system on ebay...personally I wouldnt but its really up to you.

Some other things you might think about are a case or a silicone skin for the PSP. I have a silicone skin cover and it is really nice. It protects it from dirt and it has grips on the back which makes it really comfortable to hold.

no it doesnt have any memory in the system to save stuff on. The Daxter bundle pack just happens to come with the memory stick. The Daxter one is the only one they did that way. Any of the others youll have to get the memory stick seperately.

get the 'ultimate starters pack'. It comes with a mars bar, a pack x-men 1995 trading cards, the diablo 2 soundtrack and two free tickets to see 'lord of the rings: the two towers' at the cinemas.

Buy a new one, core version is ok. A 32MB is just fine if you just want to save game files on it.
