I guess it depends on whether or not you are used to holding something that big in your hand.(But look on the bright side, at least it's not a Sega GameGear).
I tend not to have too much trouble with the PSP's design. Although I will admit I am not so much a fan of the Slim version, I find it feels a little flimsy in my hand. I have never had any real problems with the buttons.
The screen is lovely and clear, although, like most small screens, it does get a slight blur when the on-screen action is getting a way bit fast, but I guess I have adjusted to it (either that or I need new glasses).
Its versatility is certainly something that cannot be dismissed, although I cannot understand some people's attitude in calling it a 'casual gamer's console'. I'm sorry? Compared to what??? Has anybody noticed just how NTendo steer that adverts directly AT the casual gamer.
It does, as with the PS3/360 discussion come down to what you want from the console. I just don't have the patience to go out and buy a DS and try and get that to do all the stuff my PSP does. I am happy with the games for the PSP, and have yet to find one on the DS that has made me think 'I MUST have that game'.
I brought my PS1 because of Soulblade.
I brought my xbox because of Morrowind.
I brought my Gamecube because of Pikmin.
I brought my PS2 because of Simpson's Wrestling (Don't ask...)
I brought my Wii because I was bored...
I guess that means that my advice shouldn't be taken cos I don't know what the fcuk I am talking about.
In the end, if you are happy with your purchase, then it was the right one!
