PSP: is it worth it?

was thinking of getting a PSP; but was wondering if any of ya'll have it and/or think it's worth it.
i was thinking that if there was a final fantasy game on the PSP, or a new grand theft auto (or hell, any old ones), it'd be totally kick ass.
but then again, was thinking that handhelds are more for the kids that travel around in a family on long trips and stuff, not for 20 year old college kids.
thoughts? |

| I have one and love it. The game releases are kinda slow but then again the system is still new. A new Grand Theft Auto is coming out, called Liberty City Stories, and it will be out before the end of the year. I have a 512MB memory stick for which I use to carry mp3s and movies/videos, but those are optional accesories. The 512MB memory stick is $90 and the PSP USB uplink cable is $15. I personally love my system to death. |

| I dont think selling your PS2 would be worth the PSP. Just save up money I guess. Everyone will forget the PSP when PS3 comes out :D |

Honestly, most of my games, I never even touch much.
PSP is good if you want Emulators on it. I play some old school SNES and Genisis, even some nintendo more than my actual PSP games. Other than that, I use it as an ipod.
For emulation, you need 1.5 or higher firmware btw. I dunno if these newer psps have it. |

Yeah it's worth it if you travel a lot like me. Sitting on a plane for 8hrs aint fun. I got me a 1Gb stick, and i can fit 2 good quality movies on it, or bunch of games.

Yeah if you gonna run, umm "backed up" games, or emulator from your stick DO NOT upgrade from 1.5 firmware! Some ppl are working on downgraders, but it's slow comming. |

and i forgot which snes emu does this, but turning off your snes emu on with the sleep button may corrupt your memory stick. |

For anyone who knows a bit about those emulators for PSP: Do you know if any of the emulators (or any of the ROMs for that matter) support 2 player play over WiFi? I know it would take some extra coding, but surely someone has given it a shot?
2 player wireless Smash TV would rock. :D |
