And here's my top 10.

I have a few, 1004 Piano Black, 1004 Ice White, 2004 Crisis Core, PSVita and Playstation TV, both with TN-V.

Lots of memories, i love this console, probably the most underrated of all times.

Heh, March 24th, 2015 for the US, I actually have it in my calendar... Image I might just camp out all night at Best Buy for the memories... And make people wonder what the hell I'm doing.

I have a Japanese launch PSP with the 1.00 firmware on it still, the US launch and a bunch of dev stuff. Fortunately (for my wallet) I never let myself get into collecting the limited edition consoles. They'd be cool to have though.

I do have the Mid-Niigata earthquake charity edition that was released on Dec 5th, 2004, so that one is technically 10 years and a week old... Image

Loved Lumines, Wipeout and Death Jr. (1 and 2 for all 3), and played them constantly... Image Still play them, actually... Hacked my Vita so I could put all my PSP games on it...

Never owned a PSP, but got MotorStorm Arctic Edge on the PSVita. I"m addicted to it, it's the true portable MotorStorm!

I'm still thinking on getting Ridge Racer PSP for the Vita as well, since it's on sale. People say it's great and it even runs at 60fps!

PSP games were quite shit actually. Tekken wasn't so bad, but most the time they just felt rather rushed. Port of FlatOut was ok I guess.

Nice selection. I enjoyed SF, and I got the PS2 port of Arctice Edge. I remember I was so excited for GTA when it first came out. I've taken a snapshot of mine, the top ten on the stack being my favs. Can't believe its been ten years already, and the PSP doesnt feel that old to me.

Love the PSP. Very versatile handheld. Definitely my favorite handheld. I have a black 1001 and I still use it on a regular basis. Bought it used at a GameStop years ago.

A fantastic console with some great games. Final Fantasy Crisis Core, Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker and the Yakuza Black Panther series. The arcade compilations by Midway and Namco are amazing. I still play mine all the time, either with the actual psp or by the Vita's psp mode.

If you used custom firmware you had solid emulators for every system up to N64. The psp is one of my favorite consoles ever, handheld or otherwise.

Yeah, Dec 12th is the official release date in Japan. Sony auctioned off 500 for the charity and shipped them a week early. Here's mine:

I'm PSP proud owner and still have PSP since 2004. 10 years later and after many years of use...my PSP still works! It amaze me when I check the Save data that has time and date that go back to 2005 when i last saved the game. Mind boggling for me.

PSP has fantastic games. Especially Colin mcrea 2005, God of war, killzone and of course many more!

PSP is a fantastic device and it still is today.
