PSP2

Well, assuming the small amount of information provided by Kotaku is accurate, I'm not terribly impressed. Sounds more like a PSP1.5. Akin to the upgrade of the DSLite to the DSi. Bigger screen, dual-analogs and probably bigger onboard memory storage. That's not a new handheld, that is an upgrade of the PSP.
That and lately I've been hugely disappointed with the PSP library. No amount of innovations to the handheld will help if there isn't a good library of games to support it. Of course, that's all a matter of personal taste.

> two analog sticks
Took you way too fucking long, Sony. Why didn't you include this from the beginning? Pure idiocy. Either way, I've never seriously considered buying a psp (because of the games AND the single analog stick), but this definitely sounds interesting.

If it's turns out another PSPGO, which you must donwload them... no thanks.
about compatibility, like Tsurayu said, this is not a "New" System, it's like the NDSlite or XL. So, it can play PSP games.
on the other hand, since I own a hacked one, I see no reason to buy this if it's not hackable yet. (don't flame this, every person has his/her own circumstances)

I do hope that they rethink those analogue sticks. There were some good looking games on the PSP, but having demoed it early on, the 'slidey thing' and some terrible control mapping just killed it for me.
They do also need to make more of a push for the casual market, though. It's a dirty word in gaming now, casual, but they completely misunderstood the fundamentals of handheld gaming in aiming for a 'PS2 Mini' and entertainment centre. I want something small and cheap, with games I can pick up and play on the go, puzzlers and platformers, adventures and addictive multiplayer.
It was a solid first foray into the market, but Nintendo have the landscape to a tee. It'll require a major technological coup to displace them.

How about just designing the PSP2 around the PS2 controller, it doesn't take much that simple knowledge unless they want to compete in the power house (3DS and Apple), but let's be clear on what we want on our PSP2:
- Redesign those numbs to analog stick, I don't mine them but when playing KH BBS, it feels like hell just turning the wheel.
- Keep the UMD, may not be the biggest innovation but I want to keep my games around for a while incase the memory card gets corrupted and such.
- Isn't the PSP already region free?
- Have more people involve when designing a game, have seen very few games that actually interest me, but would like to creativity as the games are being handed down to the casual crowd more now for the quick buck sessions.
- Put some effort into making the system look and operate good, calibrate whatever is needed (10 hours of bettery life would be nice), and don't become Apple.
