I value my vertical storage space... this gets rid of a lot of it! For some reason, the design also seems very outdated... I keep thinking of my first Atari 5200 when I look at this, where do I plug in my wired controls and begin a new game of Donkey Kong or Pit Fall? If you are a video game nut and like to relive past glories... this is the best thing since the release of Gameboy Advance!

I would buy it to be the capstone to the pyramid of electronics my family has in the living room. That is very sweet considering how sony has forgotten about the PSP and making stuff for the PSP with all of the recent PS3 hype. 170 is a little steep though, so I wonder how long it would take to even out pricewise in your PSP budget.
