How would You make it?

For me, it be this:

Basically same shape as psp slim, but with two better analog sticks and back-lit buttons when its dark.

Touch screen for web browsing and games. not all games will need to use of the touch screen however. but the touch screen brings new things for games..we can have games like socom and games that involve the touch screen.

Full Web Browser.

No Built in Camera or GPS because some people may not need that but there will be accesories who people for want that.

Better UMDs. (Blu-ray UMD? just throwin it out there..)

backward compatible with UMD.

Games will be like PS3 graphics. (if thats not possible, then wii-like graphics, or something.)

PSN support and PS store can be accessed directly from psp. (of course the current PSP could possibly get this with a firm ware update.)

Built-in Bluetooth.

Thats all i can think of, im not goin over the limit or anything, but u may feel free to do so.

Post your design of the next PSP.

good thinking but i think back lit buttons won't work as they would create too much glare to see clearely on screen.

Just add another analog nub, well redesign the nub too

More powerful better graphics (obviously)

Do something to add Unique controls (Some Type of SIXAXIS maybe)

Do something to get developers more interested in making games for it

Otherwise Same

i still think the L and R should be moved forward to make room for a R2 and L2 and add one more anolong stick, and then you have a full working Playstation system. Also make the UMDs bigger in memory size. like right now a UMD is 1.4GB make it 2.4GB to add more things or something. or. SONY MAKE THE PSP2 already

Maybe a customizable faceprint for the battery detachable plate thingy, much like the 360's custom faceplates that people can buy everywhere now. Heck I'll release two new colours for the psp, the pink and the pink with red polka dots.

id buy that psp.....id have either face recognition, or fingerprint id for security, so if anyone stole it it would be pointless, bigger ram and internal memory for internet like utube etc, an option for 2 memory sticks and the ability to transfer data between the both of them.

Yea I think that the two slots for Memory sticks would be a sick idea along with the touch screen.

Other than that it would be cool to have something similar to Wii's Channels, and like a built in Virtual Console.

Different colours would be nice to o.O

32Gb Flash Solid State Disk, so no more overpriced memory sticks.
Better game download system, where you don't have to give credit info, something like Microsoft Points.
And all the other stuff already said too.

2 nubs.... and 2 extra trigger buttons. Basicly, they should have given it the same exact layout as the dualshock controllers.

Also, packaged USB cable, with whatever audio transfer software. And some type of glass screen replacement kit. Have the thing made to where it's scratchable screen is as replaceable as it's battery.

the top of my list would be a six-axis type functionality where i can play games like super monkey ball by tilting the PSP around.

Ok, better graphics and more processing power would come above that, but still :)

I would make the slim even slimmer. i would take the UMD reader totally out, and make all games on memory card, because theyre smaller, and faster to read. DEFINATELY 2 analogs, and more RAM memory. I think touch screen is kinda pushin it.

I'd really like an AM/FM digital radio tuner.
