Thanks to Sony's online auction providing help to those affected by the Mid-Niigata Earthquake, we are able to hold our very first Sony PSP™ Value Pack in our hands today.
With excitement we have played around with the unit for a couple of hours now. This news post should give everyone eagerly looking forward to their PSP™ console a first impression. We have taken a total of more than 60 shots including an step by step open-up gallery of our parcel, comparison shots as well as screenshots. Further a total of 24 videos are available for download which were taken from the PSP™ interface as well as various videos that can be found on the included UMD movie demo disc
Speaking about the Memory Stick Duo, we have tested a conventional Memory Stick Duo Pro 512MB from our Sony digicam which was finally found compatible. The Memory Stick lets you store pictures, music as well as your own video files that can be played back on the PSP console. Sony announced a MPEG4 movie converter to be available for download before end of the year.
Fortunately a Demo UMD Movie Disc has been included with the PSP Value Pack. We expect the disc to be bundled with every unit shipping on Dec 12th. The Movie Demo disc contains videos of upcoming PSP titles (such as Armored Core, Doko Demo, Minna no Golf, Metal Gear Acid, Puyo Puyo Fever, Ridge Racers, Segoku Musou, Vampire Chronicles and more) as well as UMD Movies (such as Kung Fu Hustle, Spanglish, Biohazard 2: Apocalypse, Hitch, Wicker Park, Naruto and a sample video) and UMD Music previews.
