Rumor: PSP2 delayed due to hardware issues, now CES-bound

It looks like Sony's next-generation handheld game system has hit a snag again as reports are now circulating that the often rumored PSP successor will be delayed even further due to some processor issues. According to Charlie Demerjian over at Semi Accurate, the PSP2 will be powered by Nvidia's Tegra 2 chipset, but due to its power consumption issues, the Japanese video game company is now holding back the development of the device until Nvidia fixes its stuff:

"It is now set for a CES showing, but it will almost assuredly be released at a later date. This isn't due to the number of engineers mauled by moles yesterday, but because the Tegra 2 is massively over it's promised power budget. In a segment that finds 5% overages unacceptable, Tegra 2 is 20%+ over power budget. That explains why Nvidia PR suddenly changed the focus of the PSP2 screed to avoid the word 'phone', but, luckily for Sony, the PSP2 does not have phone capabilities."

"The power 'whoopsie' means delays and possibly spec downgrades for the PSP2, but we will have to see where it ends up. Between that overage and several showstopper bugs, Sony is said to be very miffed at Nvidia right now. Even the moles could sense that before they pounced on engineer after engineer. The scene in the streets is almost as bad as the scenes in the Nvidia meeting rooms when the Sony people come around."

So there you have it guys, if these rumors are true, I guess we're not going to see the PSP successor anytime soon.

Well, hopefully they do a good job on the psp2. Keep umd or a dual layer version or whatever and include bc. Maybe that's asking for a lot in a handheld, though: won't the chip architecture be completely different? That would mean either a second processor/gpu (which there may or may not be room for) or software emulation (which can be a bit spotty on how well various games work).

I've really enjoyed my psp, but I won't be buying a psp2 right away (if at all). Sony has changed and I'm not super confident in them like I used to be. Again, I hope the psp2 is good, but I'm not holding my breath. I'm all over the 3ds, though.

I hope it looks like this one:

But we'll see.

# yes — KylBlz 2010-07-18 14:33

top one is the best concept iv seen. bottom one needs to fix analog plaement. the sliding mechanism (for the bottom one) would be interesting to engineer a 'solid' feel..

+2 # RE: really? — Snaku 2010-07-19 03:01

I love the screen on the first one, but the controls would feel cramped. The bottom one looks great, but I'd prefer for the analogs to be under the other controls like in a dual shock. Either way, I would hope for a bigger screen (half inch or so) than the current psp: better resolution is nice, but it only helps so much in such a small area.

# psp — AwaisAndroid 2010-07-19 11:36

The bottom one looks sick as fuck. I hope it looks like that!!

# hmmm — fearlubu 2010-07-21 01:31

the 2nd and 3rd pics are stupid

but in due time i suppose....lets just hope that sony doesnt screw up like the did with Go -_-

# :) — Troy Gerbrandt 2010-07-17 03:00

in the pic i like the whole light system for the batterie power thingy there it looks pretty kool

and yah its gonna be depressing having to wate for the PSP2 and a little bit even more depressing that it might have downgraded specs

# RE: Cell — lunas 2010-07-17 04:49

why so it can be even more over power budget than the nvidia chip...

my question will be on backwards compatibility for psp 1 games and umd support...

# RE: RE: Cell — Techni 2010-07-17 04:56

Undoubtedly it will have UMD and be completely BC with PSP1 games and DLC

# RE: RE: RE: Cell — Jodeth 2010-07-17 05:14

It will still need a physical disk of some sort. BC could mean better framerates.

# RE RE RE RE RE RE CELL — 0MN1DYN4M1X 2010-07-17 09:53

It will most likely have a dual-layer UMD, at 4gb. It shall be called "UMD2".

+1 # Yea — aperson2 2010-07-17 13:08

I'd put money on that ;).

At my studio our PSN downloads are much lower than our UMD sales per title. The Go was such a giant flop. People don't want DD only systems and UMD can be upgraded to use multiple layers. For power consumption reasons I highly doubt we'd see bluray lenses on a PSP. But physical storage is a definite.

# I agree — UltimaXX 2010-07-18 08:40

About the need for physical storage, anyway. But I think that it's much more likely to be a flash cartridge based format this time around; the only reason Sony opted to use optical media with the original UMD was because, back in the day, a 1GB Memory Stick Duo would cost you about £100.

Given we can get 4GB cards for less than a tenner now, Sony has no reason to carry on using the same old discs.

# - — aperson2 2010-07-18 14:12

I absolutely do not share your opinion there. UMD prices, per 1000 units is very low. Sony cover that though but you are able to see the prices yourselves. Solid state memory prices are very far behind.

No doubt that once solid state media is cheaper they will use that but for now optical is the cheapest. They're still quite pricey is all.

What I personally hope for is a dual layer optical format and for them to make use of the patented (but never used) sliding disc cover like a Minidisc. Either by adding a secondary layer or by using smaller tracks the next PSP's discs will definitely be more delicate.

# RE: RE RE RE RE RE RE CELL — Dude27 2010-07-18 11:49

Uhm you know the psp allready used dual layer UMD's right? Single layer UMD is 900 mb and dual layer was 1,8 gig. So they should make more layers or other discs.

# RE: RE: RE RE RE RE RE RE CELL — aperson2 2010-07-18 20:54

They are? I honestly didn't know that! All I know are the precise limits of storage data and RAM. Thanks!

# RE: RE: RE: RE: Cell — PulseONE 2010-07-18 11:56

Installing a game to flash memory won't affect framerates, it'll affect load times.
It could POTENTIALLY affect framerate, but mainly in open world games, or games that would otherwise load during gameplay

# RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Cell — aperson2 2010-07-18 20:55

It would improve both. Since heavy caching of data from an optical media slows down a games performance. Minutely though.

# RE: RE: Cell — Tanner 2010-07-17 07:17

More than likely it'll have support. They're already aware of how "well" the PSP Go is doing due to taking it completely away. Besides, if the PSP is getting the same treatment the regular PlayStation series has gotten from PSone to PS2, majority PSP games should run on PSP2. If this was the PSP3, however, that'd be a different story.

# Hardware — Decius 2010-07-17 04:35

Dear Sony;

Please stick with the Tegra 2, and also try bumping up the WiFi to the 802.11 /n/ standard.

Thank you.

(ps; 2005 is calling they want their 802.11/g back)

-2 # psp — lunas 2010-07-18 03:38

too bad it doesnt have 802.11 g

psp has 802.11 b it needs b/g/n + bluetooth and wireless usb

-1 # PSP — aperson2 2010-07-18 14:14

it needs wireless USB? No it doesn't. It will have B/G at the very least, hopefully N. Bluetooth is agiven. Wireless USB? It's barely on the market!

+2 # RE: psp — lexbian 2010-07-19 11:39

isnt bluetooth basically wireless usb anyways?

+1 # Yeah... — JETFIRE007 2010-07-19 15:40

It is but (for me anyways) BT is waaaay to slow.... cant even do 1mbps..

# well... — UnknownOne1993 2010-07-17 06:11

right now i am not concerned about its release date, i just want to see an official concept. can't wait to see the next CES.

Hopefully they taking the extra time to talk to developers like they said and not make hardware that everyone hates to code for like every other console they've done.

they better not go down on the specs.The iphone 4 manages to get better battery life and a even bigger cpu/gpu-reaching the current psp's power and sony cant even barely manage to upgrade at all"Now i know why they say that there consoles have a ten year life span"its because they can create new ones for shit.i mean all we realy want is more powerful graphics,screw touch screen or 3d or any of that,true gamers will no what i mean.

-3 # RE: Sony you retards — Jodeth 2010-07-17 12:41

Yea, screw touch screen and 3d (not everyone can see 3d). True gamers are sick of low pixel counts and frame drops. It's time to get some HDR in these handheld games. Also longer battery life and maybe a 2nd analog.

-2 # RE: RE: Sony you retards — Emir 2010-07-17 13:00

OMG,exactly that all thats needed is a little higher rez and a second analoge stick,battery life on the curret psp is ok but extending it wont be a problem.3D WAS NEVER INTENDED TO BE FOR A HANDHELD=pointless.

+1 # um — aperson2 2010-07-17 13:05

HDR in handheld games?

I don't think you understand much about eye detail and so forth. Needless to say the PSP2 will be capable of desktop-quality post processing effects but shrunk down to a tiny screen... it's the "tiny screen" but that renders HDR moot.

"True gamers" also made me laugh. I like how people impose their own beliefs to class people, rather like how religion does with competing branches.
"True gamers" as it were, would have both the 3DS and PSP2 and find entertainment in both.

-3 # REALY? — Emir 2010-07-17 13:12

your such a fag,i never said it sucked i said shit like 3ds,WTF do we need 3d on a handheld?when with all that extra money and time they cauld of updated it graphicly or added a higher rez screen? peple like you and your stupid pokemon and shit,if i wanted to see pixels move i wauld go back to win 95

@aperson2
Ok, not "true gamers" but i meant "serious gamers".
Has it ever come to you that "true gamers" can't afford both handhelds.
Oh gee i sure wish i was a "true gamer", but too bad i only find entertainment in these outdated systems.

+1 # Hmm — aperson2 2010-07-18 14:04

Can't afford both? You are aware that a DS and PSP would be £250 now. The same price as a PS3. £250 is also nothing; a fully working mid-level PC is £500, a good TV is £1000.

£250 for 6 years worth of entertainment is a good price. I was a starving student working towards my Masters degree and I could afford both. Try saving money. It's a wonderful experience.

+1 # RE: Hmm — Ann 2010-07-18 21:56

I tried saying that a few weeks ago, but nobody wanted to understand. I traded my psp off months ago for a DSi.
The only reason I did that is I have a laptop now, and I didn't play psp games anyway. Now that I have the DSi, I have a camera (as shit as it may be) and I'm making money from RNG abuse on Diamond (Email me if you want a shiny that could be hatched)

Raw power's good and all but people talking about it just needing a better Cpu/Gpu are being seriously short-sighted. Apart from piracy the reason it isn't doing well outside Japan is the Psp is just too basic, all it has is a screen and controls like old consoles, but the average gamer now wants multiple ways to interface with a console so it needs touchscreen, motion controls, camera and whatever crap they can throw at it.

i agree %100, but there sony and what sony do best is within its hardware,i i doubt they want all that new glossy things,i think thats just with handhelds nothing more,but if sony threw a demo of a psp2 running a game like prototype,or unreal taurnement 3 wich by the way the intergra 2 can run no problems then you will see where the gamers go.

+4 # ... — symbal 2010-07-17 16:17

MS are just being sensible by not releasing a handheld. Because any non Japanese made console will completely die on it's arse in Japan, and Nintendo is virtually untouchable in the west with the Psp seriously struggling, so really right now there is no real market for a MS handheld, but i reckon they might try to creep into the market by building Zune into a gaming device possibly with Psp type minis that also work on 360.

"...I guess we're not going to see the PSP successor anytime soon."

Good.

Theres nothing wrong with the PSP as it is right now.

They could keep the current hardware competitive and even cutting edge with significant OS
upgrades (additional functions, better on screen keyboard, etc), and good "graphic strong" games that cant be replicated on the nintendo's dinky little eyeliner box.

As far as the allegedly 3d nintentoy?
A handheld ps3 wouldn't stop weeaboo's from buying a million goofy little makeup kits to see mario in a pseudo barely noticeable depth perception trick.

Nobodies gonna beat nintendo at their own game with their own established cult. Sony (or anybody) is gonna have to offer an alternative product.

Large, mature and good looking games seems like an attractive alternative to me.

Excuse me but I was at E3 and tried the 3DS. The effect is not "barely noticeable", it's actually incredibly deep.
It's also only as much of a "trick" as HDTV "tricks" the eye by adding more detail to look sharper.

I really don't understand these people saying "oh put a higher resolution screen"

what would you need it for if your screen is only about 4 inches in size? extra resolutions on small screens will have no effect, just like 1080p on a 13 inch monitor, it will have no effect, screen resolution should match screen size. It will only start to look ugly if the resolution is lower for the screen size.

-2 # RE: RE: Rumor: PSP2 delayed due to hardware issues, now CES-bound — Emir 2010-07-19 07:08

hahahahaha,you must not know much about rez,fitting more pixels in a tiny screen is the future right now,thats why the new iphone 4 looks amzing,because its got a high rez on such a small screen,makes blocky object look smoother and much better quality.

+1 # RE: RE: RE: Rumor: PSP2 delayed due to hardware issues, now CES-bound — asd™ 2010-07-24 21:51

have you ever tried playing a 1080p video on a 13 inch monitor? it has no difference compared to a video on the same resolution on the monitor. why? because you are seeing the same amount of pixels on screen,

the reason why some phones did look better with higher resolution was because the previous resolution of phones was smaller for the screen size, in short it was upscaled to fit the screen size.

as for the games smooth graphics it relies entirely on the amount of polygons the gpu can put onscreen, the more polygons you can put, the smoother the graphics will be.

@Emir you must be the one who does not know much about rez

i am much more concerned about the pricing. sony isnt the kind of company that sells things cheap until YEARS later. remember PS3? 599 US $. i hope they will allow PS2 games to be played on it ( L2 and R2 better be there lol). i RLY want to play MGS 3 and Kingdom hearts 1 and 2 on a handheld thats even STRONGER than PS2. sony u rock compared to nintendo in hardware!......cant wait till its hacked lmao

When I see terms like "spec downgrades" and "no phone capabilities" I wonder if Sony is just shoveling crap into a bucket so they can sell it...
If they release ANOTHER flawed portable system, they may as well hand their money right over to Nintendo.

-2 # why phone? — suomynonA 2010-07-18 23:22

(to the post below this)
first off: my analog stick still works

(now back to the post im replying to)
why would you really want a phone capability? psp 2000, 3000, and go had skype and skype was nice i liked it alot used it all the time but why the hell make it a phone? phones have to be small and portable as possible ergonomics dont matter as much to a phone so if they made it with phone you wold either get the iphone ish at&t raping you with the price requirement or you would get a small uncomfortable gaming rig with phone possibilities because nobodys gonna replace there small handy go anywhere phone with a large bulky psp 2k sized console so that would make adding phone lose them lots of money they already have the sony ericson phone line (not the best phone from what ive seen but still) they dont NEED a phone in the psp they should keep skype though but the phone point is dumb and a hardware downgrade would suck but they still have to compete with the 3ds and they know it granted psp go was utter shit and as far as i know thats what made the whole motion of "sony no longer cares about the consumer" thing start (please prove me wrong cuz i do wish that its more than that)if sony learned from the go that that design in general is shit they will go with what the gamer wants my perfect psp in my opinion would be

-dual analog

-better quality analogs (i will grant you that they dont have the best psp analogs)

-at LEAST make the processor at standard run speed as fast as psp at full overclock

-open development (cuz if they dont people are probably just gonna hack it again)

-keep removable battery

-keep physical gaming media (you can keep the dlc though)

now onto minor perfections

faster internet

able to be modified using pre made hardware and maybe be able to change your casing without voiding warranty

replaceable parts that get worn (like buttons and analog nubs)(yes this is simmilar to what i already said)

able to customize axb ALOT more without having to use cxmb (maybe customize the equalizer and stuff aswell)

(i also might have forgotten alot of things but you get the idea)

you can count on the factory analog stick to go rogue after the first 6 months.

i have 2 1001s and a 2001. i have yet to replace the joys in any of them aside from just replacing the nub itself with a more comfortable nub. so i disagree with "in the first 6 months.." although from what ive noticed when a joystick dies, IT DIES ALL AT ONCE. but at least theyre easily replaceable.

# seriously? — Sw3RvE 2010-07-20 18:26

why would you put the analog sticks at the top? thats completely opposite of every other sony console.

Probably because the psp go was the "psp2"

# blu ray UMD — ESPAX 2010-09-18 08:16

making a Blu ray UMD allow it to have a higher capacity game so the quality can be better than the original PSP game.

# what about sdhc or sdxc — vinny puleo 2010-09-27 22:45

what about making 2 sdhc or sdxc drives for the psp 2 so that can be easier to compress data on a handheld game.
