  It's a big step up form the psp, let's just hope they can battle out past piracy problems they had with the psp..I went on game stop's website and the price tag was like, $999.99. Then I saw the price hasn't been determined yet thing, but if it's anywhere near that price. I'll just stick with the 3DS :D

  It CAN be 3D.
  Just need glasses unlike the 3DS.
  
  I don't really get the hype with 3D. It really isn't that great.
