Why don't you just wait a little longer to buy it so that you can save enough to buy the memory stick too?:roll:

Wait until next week-ish and get a slim PSP, it's the same price and has 64mb onboard memory which I assume lets you save games to it, but it might only be for system caching. Either way, it's like 10 bucks for a used 32mb memory stick, so it isn't such a rip off unless all the money you get is from an allowance - then it's your parents ripping you off, or could be yourself ripping you off for not making more money.

The 64mb memory in the new PSP slim is the upgraded internal memory for the PSP's use only (for the upgrades/firmware). You won't be able to save anything to it like saves, music, etc....the others are wrong. The ram is also doubled to 64mb, but this will be used for faster game loading... so you WILL need a memory stick to save. I suggest getting the PSP Slim Daxter pack, which comes with Daxter, a 1gb memory stick, and the Family guy collection...only $30 more than the core pack!

actually, no. the slim psp isn't the same amount as the original. The original psp core is $170 and the slim is $200, The 32mb memory stick isn't in stores anymore (unless you buy it used from gamestop or something, then it's only $3) but at Frys electronics you can get the 4gb for $60. otherwise just get the 512mb for $19.99

The guy who originally posted cracked me up the way he said something about a 'frickin' rip off and it makes me angry' and then in his next post 'it's all good'. -every time i hear someone say 'It's all good' I think 'no it's not ALL good'

Think of it this way. Core + game = 190$. Bundle *since it comes with a pretty good game* + nothing = 200$. If you can get 10$ anyway you can, go for it.

We're sure to get some clarification either way but i think both the current psp and the slim use the same pro duo memory sticks.
