Psp was so popular in post ussr countries, it was insane, DS wasnt even heard of, playing gta in school was absolutely mind blowing

Same goes for Turkey. I mean people didn't really have a lot of PSPs but everbody knows PSP and almost no one knows DS.
used to play gta multiplayer with my friends every day in school here in Aus, psp still my goto portable for long trips
Did they have good marketing or where they cheaper

Listen, the actions of mad men should not be considered normal.
yeah, but that's in case he gets lasagna on one of them.
Random question. Ik Scott jokes a lot, but did he really get robbed?
“How did the psp sell 80m units?”
Japan, Scott.
The PSP actually sold fairly evenly between North America, Europe and Japan, sitting at roughly 24, 21 and 20 Million sold respectively. Of course, Japan has way less people, so from a per-capita basis 20 million is very impressive. Almost as impressive as the 15 million units sold outside if the big 3 regions.
In short, the PSP sold relatively well in Japan, though it still trailed the DS.
Scott seems to think that The United States and Ohio are the only countries.
@@mcgoldenblade4765 ....is this not the case?
Just an interesting fact. Idk about all the Europe, but practically no one in at least Western Russia heard anything about the DS and PSP was all the rage.
Russia had PSPs everywhere too. I still play mine. Actually I've never seen a Nintendo console here, aside from Switch and old Dendy famiclones. I've even seen an original Xbox, but never N64 or a GameCube or even a Wii
Me when a Scott the Woz video is in an official RUclips playlist
The PSP was actually popular in the Philippines since it was so easy to pirate games for it (which was an ideal choice for most of us since we are poor 🥲). Me and my classmates would talk nonstop about LCS or VCS and I remembered playing Burnout Legends on my friend’s PSP. Even my cousin had one for God of War.
More and more of Scott's stuff is gonna disappear each episode until he reveals he was actually just moving the whole time, and plays it off saying something like "Hey all, I got offered a new place and it came with all my old stuff! Weird, right!?"
He paid the ransom to get his stuff back, and they throw in a house made by mad Katz that's really just a fridge box
Hate
You
I have not watched a video and this skit took me for a loop but looking at his Twitter it looks like he started renovations on where is living in September.
well you got half of that right
The fact that they could put the PSP’s graphics on a handheld was pretty mind blowing to me at the time.
Sony made handhelds with console graphics it was amazing compared to Nintendo at the time with how the PSP was ps2 graphics and the vita was ps3 graphics
The lack of that second stick still bothers me though, its library desperately needed it.
Take gta vcs, lcs or ctw, that was groundbreaking on the psp
And you could emulate GBA games perfectly on it, at a time when the GBA wasn't even that old of a console. That blew my mind. I primarily remember the PSP as an emulation box. Once I figured that out I didn't even care about the native library of games. You could load every NES, SNES and GB/GBC/GBA game worth playing onto a memory stick and have fun for months.
The console was more powerful that the Playstation 1, unfortunately the game format being mini disks was freaking terrible.
The PSP deserves way more credit than you're giving it. It was the first mass consumer friendly portable smart device with the ability to do movies, music, web browsing, and digital apps years before the iPhone. Hell, it even had accessories for a camera and GPS. Also Nintendo has always been awful in international markets outside of the US and Japan. They don't even have an official presence in India and many Asian/South American countries to this day. Sony has always been strong in catering to international markets with official retail vendors and quality localization. And that's all on top of the excellent library with tons of first party and third party support, as well as the ability to download and play almost all major PS1 titles.
You can play ALL ps1 titles on your psp now because there is a website where you can basically download specifically made roms for the psp
Idk man here in Europe everyone had a DS and to this day I have never seen a single psp irl
The main reason the psp sold so well was because playstation catered internationally. Where i live, people don’t know who nintendo is, but playstation is incredibly popular. A ‘psp’ has basically become synonymous with portable gaming here. I wasn’t shocked to see how well it sold.
Nintendo's lack of presence in any country that isn't japan/us hurts my soul.
@@CallMeVidd that’s because you’re from Western Europe
the PSP (as well as later Sony and Microsoft consoles) was much more popular in Easter Europe than any Nintendo console ever was
i know so many people in Poland (my country of origin) who had a PSP when it was still relevant, but nobody who had a DS (heck, almost nobody there has ever heard of the Wii)
i’ve noticed that Nintendo has been getting some actual market share only since the release of the Switch, and even then the console (and most of its games, especially first party ones) aren’t available in Polish or any other Easter European language besides Russian
your comment actually demonstrates the main issue with this video: Scott’s US-centric (but also heavily nostalgia based) point of view

The DS is insane. It's also the only system on this list that I've seen 8 people play together locally on. Justified
Doesn't matter how many players the system supports if the games don't
@@steelbear2063 MarioKart DS did 8-player multiplayer and I think one of the Call of Duty DS games did. I just remember my brother and a couple of friends and myself all playing together

@@tomahawkgames2502
That's cool. I hope my first comment didn't sound condescending or anything
The one thing that saved the PlayStation 3 early was that it was the world's cheapest Blu-ray player. Then it became the world's cheapest 3D player when 3D was added with just the download. Literally our PlayStation 3 had only 10 games most of them downloads and most the time spent in the movie room playing blu-rays. The Xbox 360 on the other hand had an HD DVD add-on. Even though combined the 360 plus the add-on would make the world's cheapest HD DVD it was easy to convince parents that because Disney was on Blu-ray only that the PlayStation would be the system to sell. This whole studio exclusive thing between HD DVD and Blu-ray affected the balance of PlayStation 3 versus Xbox 360. If you like Universal movies HD DVD. Warner Bros play both sides of the fence with some HD DVD exclusives some Blu-ray exclusives and some dual releases. Everyone else chose Blu-ray. You should talk about how the movie industry affect the video game industry on that particular generation.
Stop Skeletons From Fighting has a great video talking about that.
If my dad knew about the DVD support on PS2 back then, he would forget it plays GTA and make it a media player only.
@@light.jeremy01 I heard early that HD DVD players were outselling Blu-ray players, but HD DVD and Blu-ray video we're closer to each other. And both were niche formats until the Xbox 360 add on and the PlayStation 3. And I heard the difference between HD DVD and Blu-ray in terms of players old was literally the difference between PlayStation 3 systems and Xbox 360 HD DVD Add-ons sold, and that was the largest difference. PlayStation 3 was bought on the basis of it being a movie player as well as a game player. A lot of people bought the Xbox 360 early but didn't add on the HD DVD even though it was the cheapest option even if you bought the Xbox 360 exclusively for HD DVD abd played no games.
But then again, in the game media formats, among multi console games, Xbox 360 was leading sales followed by Nintendo Wii and then Playstation 3.
Can confirm. I got a ps3 from my dad's colleague because they didn't need it anymore, came with like 1 or 2 games and the rest was ALL blue ray's.
I don't think it was nearly as much of a factor. The Xbox 360 did "beat" the PS3, and it only turned around as revisions got it to be much cheaper, Sony had better exclusives coming out while Microsoft was messing around, and it didn't even manage to exceed the 360 until around mid 2014, at which point the next generation was already out.
Psp was the handheld for the children of divorce.
Playing games wherever you go. Watching hd movies on there.
Battery life lasted the exact duration of the trip from my mom to my dads lol
Jokes on you, my parents divorced when I was born and I never once played a PSP.
You said it, man!
Okay they def werent HD but still looked good
As a person that was alive during the release of all those consoles, you nailed it. My parents didn't understand why we needed it. Or the difference between 8 bit and 16 bit. The most asked question was, "Why doesn't it play the old games?" As if it were a scam. Then after they started seeing the games, they understood.
Honestly as an adult I don't understand why I would need a new console for myself. At least on launch. Right now I don't see anything interesting that is exclusive to strictly PS5. Like wow, it launched with a remake of a PS3 game, yeah let me sell my kidney. Later though, when the price is dropped and hardware/software problems are addressed in later revisions - that would be the time to buy it (if you wish to be a console peasant). You'd get a better sense of the gaming library too. The Last of Us was *the* game of PlayStation 3, and it came out like what, a year before PlayStation 4 did?
Yeah as a kid I got 1 console for the 18 years of my childhood because of that feeling from my folks. Didn't upgrade to something modern until I'd moved out and had a job and in that time 3 generations had passed from the one they got me.
Everyone I knew with a PSP used it for movies, not games, and the only people I saw in public using one were watching video on it. While makes sense since phones wouldn't replace that until the 2010s. I was curious and decided to check and there were over 850 movies on it!
Meanwhile the answer to that question is "you still have the old one lmao"
@@steelbear2063 I'm pretty sure that argument only applies to playstation because Xbox is very fucking backwards compatible. Play fusion frenzy on a new Xbox is fucking maniacal levels of backwards compatible
I think the GBA's "issue" was less that it didn't have a gimmick or hook, and more that the DS came out only 3 years into its lifespan and was backwards compatible. A lot of people, myself included, were still buying new GBA games but playing them on their DS instead.
Exactly. Game Boy Advance did fantastically well and would have continued doing so if Nintendo DS hadn't arrived so soon afterward. I love Scott but I don't really take his retrospectives of stuff like this particularly seriously.
I was 10 when the DS came out, but it's so weird thinking about how the GBA was obsoleted in only 3 years. Even the GBASP was under two years old when the DS was released. 2001-2004 feels like an eternity when you're born in 1993.
Not really I feel like the Gameboy advanced was a good selling handheld

@@ChromeColossus What confuses me is I'm 99% sure he's mentioned the short lifetime span in another video, and that makes this even weirder
Congrats on being featured, Scott!!!
I wrote a small essay on game consoles in college, a big part of why the ds sold so much compared to other consoles was the fact that each kid in the family got one while the home consoles were shared by everyone (as stated in the vid), but it shocked me that the ps2 sold more despite that
PSP was absolutely massive in Japan. In Japanese game stores, you'd have a whole wall of PSP games, and maybe a shelf or two of PS3 games. When I moved back to the US, I was shocked at how hard it was to find PSP games. Truly a tale of two different countries.
PSP had Monster Hunter. That’s all it needs to be a success in Japan, and its absence on the Vita can be seen as another reason that console failed.
Not only Japan but Europe also
Also in the middle east and europe. Especially in the middle east.
Also in Europe, PSP games are still being sold in second hand stores, and you can find many of these UMDs. It's strange how the PSP didn't take off in the US.
I mean, the way he talks about PSP in this video made me cringe a litttle bit actually, it shows he really never gave the console a chance, he has so many good memories with the DS he cant comprehend the awesome games it has.
I love how Scott's able to disguise the fact he's probably moving apartments by having a running joke about being robbed
Edit: I WAS RIGHT!!!
Idk, there might be lore implications in this. Like it could feed into the next "dark age of nintendo" type series.
@@combatwombat1845 "lore implications" like Scott moving? This is some avant garde story-telling
@@Ganmorg Well Scott's old location McKee did canonically burn down last time he moved in reality. This is probably the next version of that.
I was a little confused on if he was only making jokes or if he actually got robbed because he mentions it so often.
@@CyberLance26 I thought he possibly got robbed too until my friend mentioned something about it lol
i love how Scott can take a boring wiki page with basic info, and spice it into an entertaining commentary. content is genuinely so good
While the Game Boy Advance's 81M units may not seem like an impressive number, we should remember that it was released in June 2001 in North America and the successor DS released in November 2004. The vast majority of sales were made in 3 and a half years, by far the shortest tenure out of the Nintendo handhelds. The rate of sales was pretty impressive.
The PS2 had such an insane run. That thing was released in early 2000, and wasn't officially discontinued until late 2013, several months after the PS4 was released. It was out selling the PS3 despite the latter being a more powerful system. And the last online PS2 servers didn't get terminated until like 2015. That's just wild.
*laughs in Sega Master System in Brazil*
Well ACTUALLY it was discontinued in January 2013, 11 months before the PS4 came out. What you’re thinking of is that its last official game came out just around the PS4 launch: Pro Evolution Soccer 2014
People were still playing Final Fantasy XI on it til they shut down the console servers in 2016. FFXI is still going strong now on PC though despite XIV being out and as popular as it is
@@CykaBlyatAlex The console servers were the same as the PC servers, the only reason why you still can't connect is they stopped making updates for the console clients.
You guys know nothing. even to THIS DAY in 2021 there are still Mortal Kombat Armageddon servers running and people - curiously enough - still play it online.
The PSP took Asia by storm imo. Here where I live, the only person I knew who bought a DS was my aunt. That was it. Every single one of my friends at the time had PSPs, we would always ad-hoc on the bus when on a field trip, passing each other's games, and even just watching other's play is so fun. It was amazing.
even in Netherlands and rest of Europe bro,
similar story here in mexico, everyone knew about the emulator ability and that was a major reason why lots of us had it. I think the psp sales being as big as they were is because of the emulation.
Even in canada I knew plenty of people with psps, it was mainly the younger crowd that had a ds
Just monster hunter....
ironic considering that Nintendo is based in Asia
CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU ON TV

@@StafkiGTN Scott is coming to tv
@@sunshinex2012 really?? can i get video info or something
PSP deserves way more credit. For it’s time it could play games like Monster Hunter Freedom Unite/Portable 3rd, Metal Gear Solid, GTA on the go. Most people like my family had 1 TV and having a PSP was a godsend.
Also you could natively play PS1 games and emulate other consoles (NES, SNES, GBC, Sega Genesis, GBA ) well. The PSP came out in 2005 and was way ahead of its time.
Even has small yet proud community working on homebrews and ports.
Were you actually around then? Flashing it was a pain. I had to buy and return 7 copies of GTA to get the right one to flash and that was the EASY route. This is in 2007 too.
@@musicdude1540 You could find all of that online if you knew where to look lol
@@rekaivns yeah, but I did it in a day. It wasn't easy at first. It got alot easier a lot later
@@musicdude1540 Flashing a console is usually much more difficult at the beginning, now you don't need any game for it. The Wii and 3DS also share a similar story, where you had to have Zelda TP or some lego games, or for the 3DS cubic ninja or Zelda OOT 3D, but later on you can just use an SD card.
The transition from DS to 3DS was just sad in my friends group. We all had a DS and played tons of games with up to 6 people together. I swear only me and one other picked up the 3ds it just wasn't the same.
Same, I remember back in 2011 all my friends had a ds, we loved to play pokemon, mkds and mario party in the local park every Sunday. Then PkmnXY got announced, I got the 3ds in 2013 only for that game and ultimately we stopped playing together.
I bought the 3DS to play Pokemon games (X and Alpha Sapphire), yet I didn't even reach the first gym in either. Just stored the thing away for many years. Only recently opened it to play Samus Returns and downloaded 2 Ace Attorney games on it. May or may not play the Pokemon games.
The 3ds gave me a headache if I had the 3d slider on anything but off so I always had the 3d effect off.
it was because you're getting older, plus you can just play ds games on 3ds. it isn't all that bad.
I'm glad that I didn't find myself in this situation, the reverse actually. My group of high school buddies and I all had some variant of 3DS, and we'd be playing Smash or Pokemon every day at lunch. Those were the days.

@@hennessey3924 yes i am
@@hennessey3924 what
Inferior console port to psp was 10x better than ds tho. Hell, look at all the games. A spiderman or need for speed on ds was absolute horse crap compared to the psp. Also the fact that psp titles were same as ds.. 40$. Where as console games were still 50 60 back then. Fair enough for portability bcz yes it was insanely powerful and capable for the time and even today. I mean gta on psp looks and plays better than any clone or anything on cell phones today. Hell they play better than the mobile gta ports too. Well worth the price of system and the QUALITY games.
Yeah they skimped on it. I hate that it was super arcade like. I still remember the promise and the advertisements for gran turismo 4 portable. Smh. I was sad when i learned and bought the psp Gt game. It was an arcade racer made to be realistic. No campaign, nothing made sense. You just raced with stock cars.
Only nice thing was the fact you could import the following year, your psp cars to the ps3 GT5 game. So you had a head start on gt5 doing this. Almost as if thats what gt psp was made for. But even so, it was cool they put in all the same cars from gt5 to gt psp and they fit! Just wish a campaign and stuff was in it.

PSP fan since launch. Amazing screen for the time, analog nub was a big step up from just a dpad for the era and a PLETHORA of solid RPGs and weird games. The library is vast and upscaled 3 or 4x is amazing. Plus the memory card adapter is necessary and modding adds TONS of games, including gba.
Not to forget, it was a great MP3 player and movie player at the time.
Same, and Scott missed alot of what made the psp popular to the teen demographic. In many high schools if kids didn't have early phones they had psp's since you could play music, watch shows and movies, connect it to a TV or go on the internet. I know many people who had just because it was mp3 player that could also play the big name psp games as well as ps1 and ps mini games. The psp was just a ps1 with more ram and portable
You probably already know but there is a psp emulator for Android. Its called PPSSPP

Sorry to burst your bubble but it's reruns of his youtube videos
Still incredibly cool tho
The Wii holds a special place in my heart purely cause my parents wouldn’t buy me an Xbox or PS3 so it was the only console I could play Rock Band and Guitar Hero 3 on which is a highlight of my childhood
I don't think I've ever owned a dedicated DVD player. The decision for consoles to go that way so early was such a brilliant move.
Similar reason I don't have a dedicated Blu-ray player, just break out the PS3 or 4.
My household did that still worked, but we still got a PS2. It was a big help when we moved and didn't keep the old VHS/DVD player.
My family never has owned a strictly DVD player. We did have a combination DVD and VCR, but otherwise DVDs were played on PS2 or whatever
Unfortunately that didn't hold up for long with the people I knew. Lots of bootlegs back in the mid to late 2000s and the PS2 was having none of it
My first DVD player was a standalone only because PS2s were still scarce at the time. I've only ever used my PS3 for blu-ray.
The to do list being the past 2 episodes is a nice touch!

I did some math and the original model plus the lite model add up to a little over 28,163 tons or 56,326,912.5 lbs. To visualize that in mass a handymax bulk carrier ship is only a little heavier at 30,000 tons. Let me know if I made any mistakes. I'm normally pretty bad at math.
The original DS sold 18.79 million units.
9.7 oz. each
182,263,000 oz. total
oz to lbs conversion= 11,391,437.5 lbs.
DS Lite at 93.86 million units.
7.66 oz. each
718,967,600 oz. total
oz. to lbs. conversion= 44,935,475 lbs.
11,391,437.5 lbs.

44,935,475 lbs.

56,326,912.5 lbs.
lbs. to tons conversion= 28,163.46 tons (rounded off to nearest decimal)
@@playlistenthusiast impressive. I love this. Somehow I had just envisioned it being larger. This number sold is massive but they're pretty small. This was awesome, thank you!
Now imagine 155 million ps2s
I feel that way about the PSP. I’ve never known anyone to have owned one, and have only ever seen them & the Vita at vintage/used games stores
I owned 3 (and a 3ds, 2 new 3ds and a 2ds)... I'm sorry for throwing the numbers off
my first Scott the Woz video. i'd heard of him, but this was what got me into his stuff.
I’m not a gamer, but for some reason I LOVE watching these kind of videos
The conversion therapy is working lol
I love looking at that “Best-Selling Video Game Consoles” list on Wikipedia every time the sales numbers are updated. It’s always neat to see which consoles were passed by the new guys.
Yeah I just checked it the other day and I didn’t realize how many Switches Nintendo has sold. It’s already the fifth highest selling console and it’s closing in on the Wii.
@@Bob-from-Animal-Crossing It should outsell both the Wii and PS1 once Nintendo updates us with the latest numbers.
It’s crazy the how big the Switch is selling.
@@ade1174 It has outsold both as of recently, but will it outsell the PS4?
@@nebraskabirdwatching9521 It already has, and we'll see that confirmed once Nintendo releases official numbers at the end of January/start of February. Only PS2 and DS to go.
I'd say the real reason the gba didn't sell as much as it could have is because it had a shorter lifespan than most systems. It came out in 2001 and only 4 years later you have the DS, which could also play gba games. If it had a lifespan comparable to the game boy until the game boy colour, the 3DS or even the DS itself it would have sold more
Out of all those consoles gba's sales are the most surprising one. When you look at the games of the gba majority of them are just ports from snes, collections or downgraded license games. It was basically a portable snes and even though sales are way better than i expected.
@@kemalerdemsahin410 The GBA still had lot of great games tho, but you are right that it was basically a SNES Port machine. It's really impressive how well it did with all these circumstances.
I mean the snes was alright becoming really adored at the time also the gba had Pokémon so that might’ve helped
@@Rajada64 I would never have bought a SNES if it wasn't for all the ports I played on GBA when I was little
Yet, the GBA wasn’t officially discontinued until 2013.
Edit: Sorry, it was 2010.
I loved my PSP so much, I remember using the radio application at night before going to sleep to listen to music from around the world. Little things like that made it so memorable.
5:40 me when i go 130 on a corner n blame the game for crashing
Scott is dying every other episode now, I think we should be worried
Vailski was up

Hey Vail, can you talk about PETA wanting Not A Nugget, their mascot, in Smash?
Nah. He just does that sometimes.

20:11 Except me. I'm not an early adopter, so my first home console was a Wii. It still kind of works, and I say kind of because the disc drive won't spin up but everything else works. Too bad I only got three digital games before the Wii Shop Channel shut down (the original Super Mario Bros., Zelda 1, and Earthworm Jim).
As a retro gamer myself, this video gave me the biggest smile on my face from start to finish!
I remember splitting the price of a PS2 with my mom because of the DVD player functionality. Thing was a marketing star.
Scott, PSP was way more amazing that you imagine at that time. Released in 2004, and being a portable multimedia system that could play movies, music, photos, access the internet, RUclips, and had PS2 quality games was something out of this world. Later revisions could also connect to the TV allowing you to use it almost like a Nintendo Switch more than 10 years before the Switch. It wasn't something people buy it just because they thought it was cool, it was the coolest portable thing at the time! Smartphones only started doing what PSP was able to do many years later. Even I that always preferred Nintendo systems and had a DS bought a PSP after seeing what it was capable of doing.
Nah
Thanks for voicing what I had in mind
Ladies and gentlemen, we have found the world’s first console simp
@@kirbykirbykirbykirbykirbyIt did. Only in Japan and at the end of the year, but still 2004.
I feel like I’m missing a joke
Fun fact: I took a trip to Ikea last week and as part of their home decor setup was not just one, but 2 Xbox 360 systems resting on a home entertainment unit. And shiny at that.
I want an hour and a half video of Scott rambling about the story of videogames (making intense emphasis on why the Wii U failed and what Nintendo should've done)
I'm so glad Scott isn't joking about "Haha mario and chris prat funny"
Yeah, it’s the lowest hanging fruit of a joke right now. Take a look at the comment section of Jaiden’s new Mario video and the whole comment section is “ChRiS pRaTt LoL”
@@wrenren2112 Who's Jaiden?
Same
Scott almost never mentions current memes, that's what makes his content so refreshing and easy to listen to because it won't be horribly dated in a few months
@@El_Luisenciado Ahh gotcha thanks
I will defend the PSP with one well known quote.
"You're not an RPG guy."
oh yes the PSP was the king of RPGs in portable
PSP had the best portable fighting games, rpg, racing games, and compilations.
Also PSP had Monster Hunter and Phanstay Star Portable 2.
@@waterheart95 the thing is this you can play much of these genres that only main consoles did had on portable something that the Nintendo portable consoles didn't and if it did i swear to you is gonna be poor versions of it (example Burnout Legends the PSP vs the DS version)
@@eliasnicolasmiranda4940 what?
@@eliasnicolasmiranda4940 Vita is really more so in the RPG respect, only because PSP ended up with a more diverse lineup than the Vita lineup.
I loved my PSP its the console where monster hunter really took off. I have over 200 hours on multiple monster hunter games on the psp
Scott just never misses. He talks about a 3ds and every joke lands
"Gamers liked the 3DS, and they aren't people."
Bravo Scott. Bravo 👏
Agreed. I know what I am. Trash.
The literal only reason I have a 3DS is to play DS games I'm not gonna lie.
I got a PSP when I was a lad and was largely unawares of any other game systems or brands or anything. I was obsessed, played all my games religiously and have replayed many of them since on my pc or on the PSP. Even got a new one after my old one wouldn’t hold a charge. It was a really fun system and I still talk a lot about the games, even now all these years later having had a DS, DSi XL, 3DS, switch, ps3, PS4…. PSP was an absolute banger in my book. Never had any problems jostling the disk or anything, I’d argue it is one of the MOST portable systems due to the screen being plastic and tough. It’s the type of system that you just throw in the bottom of your backpack. It can take a tumble. The switch is a good successor in my opinion if you liked the PSP a lot. Similar button layout, and has games that are more complex and less gimmicky than the ds games.
I wholeheartedly agree. I think especially in the psp section of the video Scott struggles to keep his raging Nintendo fanboyness at bay. He's like "Yes, the psp had basically no major flaws and many awesome console quality games, but let me bitch how the tiny discs made it so much less portable and it only had one analog stick?! How could it ever sell more than a WiiU?!?"
Imagine seeing this on tv
Well you will get that soon
Your videos are my new favorite addition your killing it
I think Scott is actually moving into a house and has already packed up his games, and is playing it off as a joke. Very well done.
Yooo, actually didn't think about that, if so then that is clever
He mentioned that he wanted a bigger place on th Scott's stash channel so its possible
Something a lot of people don't realize is that the PSP sold a lot of units in markets where Sony did not have an official presence, or a smaller one. In a lot of third world countries, people bought the PSP because either it was cheaper than a regular console or as a secondary gaming device, the primary being a gaming PC.
I played the heck out of my PSP. I modded it and used it as an all in one device for music and movies too. I remember converting episodes of South Park and playing them on the PSP while travelling. For me the PSP evokes a lot of nostalgia and
I wish I could do some of this stuff on my Switch.
I remember having a picture of a psp on my bedroom wall to keep myself motivated to save and purchase 1, on day 1 got the psp 1 never forget that feel how solid and well put together this thing was and it came with a multi media disk and Spider-Man movie. I used to download as many songs of lime wire as I can and just enjoy the walks to school listening to music showing it off to my friends.
Buying PS2 back then in early 2000s was a DEAL OF THE DECADE
The PSP was a great handheld. Where I lived in Canada. (I was in High School at the time). A handful of my dad's friends were buying PSPs and it wasn't for their kids either. They were buying them and playing games themselves.
Damn, I also live in Canada and no one I know has even heard of the psp.
Think we can all agree that Scott needs to look into the PSP more
That whole segment showed that he was (and still is) super only into Nintendo. The PSP was crazy hyped at that time, and had the catalog to back it up, so it's wild that Scott didn't know that or missed it. I'm the exact same age as Scott, too, and I was salivating for Daxter, Size Matters and when they were releasing, the two GoW PSP prequels.
The PS-what?
@@Valanway also twisted metal head on
@@Valanway With scott on this one. I even had a psp but like, why would i ever touch that thing over my DS?
@@LL3NN Movies, good sound quality, music, internet, a D-pad nipple, PS2-like graphical ability and games/gameplay, an online store, PS3 connectivity, ports of PS1 games, (really expensive in the long run) internal storage, great build quality, customizable skins/back and front plates, decent shoulder buttons that didn't have issues after a while (the blowing trick fixed most issues on the DS thankfully, but they still didn't feel great, imo. *Too* click-y) and most importantly of all, AMAZING emulation capabilities and homebrewing.
TLDR: Great PS2-like games, fantastic multimedia device at the time, good build quality, customizable and highly versatile, PS1 ports and amazing emulation. Lots of reasons.
your attention to detail does not go unnoticed, thank you!
I used my PSP for games, movies, web surfing..
UMD had a surprisingly good selection of movies available, for pretty cheap! And you could use the a/v cable to basically have a portable DVD player
Psp were certified hood classics. Highkey every kid I knew had one and most people I know that are my age have fond memories of the psp. The customization and media options were OP as a kid too. Used it as a mp3 player, movie/show/wwe match watcher, emulator
PSP has the best media playing capabilities of any handheld released even to this day.
It’s so weird, I swear I didn’t know anyone with a PSP growing up but as an adult I know quite a few people who played it as a kid. It’s like it was popular and niche at the same time and I don’t quite understand it.
@@adrian_hook Same.
The PSP was massive in my country. When it was relevant, people were using quite a lot even if they already had the ps2
Yeah here in Greece as well
PSP was massive in europe in general, especially since in a lot of eastern europe nintendo barely existed in an official capacity
making LBP levels on the go and making your friends suffer through them
the camera attachment
the GTA or god of war games
they were absolutely mindblowing
This is really interesting to me. Here in the USA people occasionally had a PSP but EVERYONE had a DS, at least out of my friend group. The DS also sold much more worldwide than the PSP, so I’m wondering if it’s a cultural difference? Maybe it’s the age I was at the time?
@@ketrub Not true. In Northern Europe, Scandinavia, ds outsold psp 8 to 1.
Here in my country only playstation is the only console that we buy nintendo who? xbox who? is probably the answer that you get when you ask a malaysian in the early 2000's sony is so massive here
Love Scott The Woz ! Best video game channel !
Can't wait to watch this one on the air
Exited for the continuing, “Scott got robbed” arc.
I think he is moving. Or actually got robbed :/
24:26 i can't believe scott just died again, shaking and crying rn
He might be dead. But still not buried
Man I hate when that happens. I died yesterday, and it was the worst!
Canonically, death in the Scott the Woz universe is not permanent, and people can be treated for it.
Scott has probably got to be the funniest RUclipsr I’ve watched. Man is comedy legend 💪🏻
It's really insane that we're almost in the timeline where the Switch is top of that list
At the time of making this comment it is about 15 million sales away from dethroning the PS2
If an event that was just a gag makes it into the next episodes, you know it must be important to the Scott lore
Nah I still love my PSP. The modding and homebrew scene has made it more usable than ever with the ability to run games from sd cards to speed up loading times, and overclocking the cpu to get better performance on many games...
YES SOMEONE SAID IT
Exactly, dont be swayed by Scott’s words. This was just from a NA casual POV.
Only real gamers know about the amazing mods and homebrews the PSP community really is. And how it is bigger than what Scott thinks.
The PSP was and still is the portable homebrew JUGGERNAUT. A homebrewed Vita is honestly better, but no one can deny the homebrew supremacy of the psp. Also as a JRPG fiend I absolutely adored the PSP.
Vita does that and more
@@Matanumi that's not the point. I have a vita as well but still love my psp
UK gamer, I started my gaming with a Vic 20, then a 64, then a Nes (SNes, Megadrive, N64 etc). Toys'r'us was the best place for Nes games. The UK was a computer land until 1990, then consoles took off. Still have all my consoles, sadly, not my computers.
I've done it, I've watched all the Scott videos finally
