    • clacke: looking for something 🇸🇪🇭🇰💙💛
    @clacke I think experience and observation is the difference. When my nephew #Honshu was much younger, he was subscribed to an online music service. One month, my sister couldn't pay the Internet bill, and the service's local client very quickly shut off access to his downloaded music files when it could not check to see if he was allowed to listen.

    Lesson learned: buy your music on CDs and rip them to put on your player devices. With no #DRM / #TUR, the files will work even without a subscription.

    Likewise, I bought a version of the Sony #PSP for #sonTwo ... the one that used a digital download format for all games. In under a year, he'd lost access to all his games. I went to GameStop and bought a used PSP (the old style with the physical media) and he was able to play for years.

    DRM == "Digital Rights Management", a euphemism for TUR. TUR == "Technical Use Restrictions". TUR is meant to restrict and prevent use except in limited and pre-approved circumstances.

    Also considering the #Odroid Go Super, in which case it and the #PSP will be my travel companions.

    Now that my work schedule is more normal, I may pull out the #3DS or the #Switch and try to play a game with #A1, my 8 year old grandson.

    I brought both of them on this trip, but in 3 months, I haven’t had either one turned on for more than ten minutes total. I really should have brought the #PSP instead.

    But if he and I play together, it will be worth it.

    I thought about bringing the #PSP or the #PSVita with me, but instead I brought the Nintendo #Switch and the #3DS. Not that I’ve had any time to play, but in over a month, I haven’t even turned either one on.

    I think it is official: I may say I like these Nintendo systems, but the way I avoid playing them says otherwise. With the Sony handhelds, I still don’t play a lot, but when I do, I enjoy it … and I don’t avoid them out of dread.

    #Sony announces changes for #PS3, #PSVita, #PSP platforms:

    We are closing PlayStation™Store on PlayStation®3 on July 2nd, 2021 and on PlayStation®Vita devices on August 27th 2021. Additionally, the remaining purchase functionality for PSP™ (PlayStation®Portable) will also retire on July 2nd, 2021. After thoughtful consideration, we decided to make these changes in an effort to focus our resources for PlayStation Store on PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®5, which will enable us to enhance the customer experience even further. We thank you for your support on these platforms throughout the years.

    What does this mean for you?
    You will no longer be able to purchase PS3, PS Vita and PSP digital content, including games and video content.

    You will also no longer be able to make in-game purchases through games on PS3, PS Vita and PSP.

    While the PSP storefront was previously closed in 2016, the remaining PSP purchase functionality (e.g. in-game purchases) will now be fully retired.

    It could just be that I never owned or pkayed any #Nintendo devices, but I find that I rarely play more than 10 minutes at a time on #Switch, #Wii-U, or #3DS, while I can play for up to an hour on #PSP and #PSVita.

    I even brought the 3DS on my trip.

    And that's enough for this play session. Even games that are enjoyable, on #3DS, I don't want to play very long. Usually 20-30 minutes and I'm done.

    I know Sony did not sell as many #PSP and #PSVita units as Nintendo sold of their contemporary handhelds, but the Sony handhelds and the games for them are just more fun.

    Do I try to make today (Saturday!) a productive day, or do I make it a play some games day? It has been a couple of weeks since I last played anything on either the #PS4 or the #Switch ... and longer than that for the #PS3 or any of the handhelds ( #PSP, #PSVita, #3DS ).

    I was looking back at the videogame console purchase history. I'm not even sure I'm including every item when I say I bought 5 Nintendo #Switch consoles, 8 Sony #PS4 consoles something like 6 or 8 #PSVita & #PSP handhelds and 6 #2DS & #3DS handhelds, 2 #Wii-U consoles and 2 #PS3 consoles and 2 #XBox consoles (whichever generation was contemporary with the PS3).

    (Not all for me. Sons, grandkids, and certain others got most of those.)

    @thatbrickster When I'm near a Game Stop and have a little extra, I go in and look to see whether they have some #2DS / #3DS game my grandkids might like. After all, I did buy them the handhelds, so if I can continue to make it useful to them, I will.

    I admit that both the #PSP and the #PSVita are more fun to play. I just didn't buy those for them.

    @kelbot If you happen to visit #Baton_Rouge, #LA, GameStop sent me to a locally-owned competing store named GameWare to get a used #PSP a few years ago after my old one's battery swelled up. I bought 2 PSPs and a #PSVita, but sent one PSP to my son. Pricing seemed high, but I was there and I want the systems right away.

    I’ve been discussing https://smachz.com/ with my kids today. One pointed out that even gaming laptops struggle with modern games. This device’s embedded CPU and GPU is likely to disappoint.

    An X86 processor will use more power (equals shorter usage times on a battery charge) and produce more heat (equals noticeably warm areas near passive vents, potential for overheating and shutdowns).

    Not that anyone we know has up to $1,100 for a modern, PC-compatible, #PSP form factor gaming device. I wish them well, but I don’t think their supporters and customers will be happy with the resulting product.

    On the #3DS, even the games I like, I'm done with them in ten minutes or so. It just isn't as enjoyable as the #PSP.

    So I think I can say it now. I have only tried a limited selection of games ( with zero overlap ), but I think I enjoy playing #PSVita more than I enjoy playing #3DS. ( #PSP was probably even more enjoyable, but I haven't played it in a few years. )

    I currently have a #PS2, a #PS3, a #PS4, a #PSP, and a #PSVita. All of the above were acquired since the PS4's release. (I bought a PS3 when I was in #NE in 2008, but I shipped it home and #sonTwo had taken possession of it.)
