Sony Reportedly Ends PSP Go Production 47
Sony's PSP Go launched in late 2009 to mixed reviews and tepid sales. A little over a year later, Sony announced the portable console's successor, the NGP, leading to speculation about how long the PSP Go would last. Now, a report out of Japan suggests production on the device is winding down. Sony responded to inquiries about the report with vague PR-speak, but a UK retailer confirmed that they wouldn't be receiving replacements once their current stock ran out.

The hardware is beautiful but the marketing strategy was epic fail.
YOU CANNOT STORE GAMES.
It's download only, but you only get 16GB. And you could buy PSP games for the price of those super-mini not to mention empty memory cards.
They had a hard time selling them, because they had a hard time explaining why the normal PGP was better.
EPIC FAIL.

Keep up the good work!

One thing people forget is that, for a growing number of games, the PSP is also capable of 3D via setting the display to red-cyan anaglyph images.
Of course, this is a 3rd party feature that can only be used on hacked PSPs last I checked, but it's not like that's very hard.
