It reminds me of good old times but the device itself is not "modern" anymore. Feels like cheap funstation from aliexpress. It would be great to have a new version of it.

I completely disagree, the device feels really sturdy, I own both a PSP and a Switch and if you ask me I think the switch is more flimsy. The only thing that ages the PSP imo is the UMD reader and the lack of a second joystick, but I still love the design today

The only one that feels cheap is the PSP street, but the others are built to last. 11 years of use is no joke and the buttons still work great on mine

I mean anything works if it's built to last and you take care of it. I still have my original brick grey Nintendo DS 1st Gen and it works flawlessly.

Yea and they could call it PSLife, for breathing new life into the handheld. Surely there would be plenty of games for it and Sony could support it for years to come!

Not sure if you say it with irony or not, let me know tho
