Sony announces its next generation portable entertainment system - Sony NGP (PSP)



Sony's Next Generation Portable Entertainment System codenamed Sony NGP was flaunted! Remember those leaks and rumors about the next iteration of the Sony PSP portable entertainment system that feature touch screens and pad all around the device? Well they aren't really touch screens but the latest Sony PSP has touchpads everywhere!



Sony just made it official, the Sony NGP (codename) which features a lot of stuff you have not have in any previous PSPs. One main feature of the NGP is that it features a touch screen main display, yeah just like what you see in the photo. Form factor wise the PSP Go seems to be the most uniquely design PSP but the NGP undoubtedly boasts far more features and is way more cooler than the PSP Go.
