Psp2 New Images Leaked Via Dev Kit

**Heaton** · 17-11-10, 11:30 PM

The shots clearly show the device’s forward- and rear-facing cameras, as well as the much-discussed trackpad on the rear of the unit.

Note that this isn’t the console’s final form factor. As you can see, developers are working with a kit with similar construction to a PSP go at the moment, with a sliding screen over physical controls. We don’t know when the final physical spec will be nailed down, only that this isn’t it.

We were first told PSP2 kits were in developers’ hands early this year.

It has an HD screen. The last set of rumours surrounding the handheld said the chipset has yet to be finalised.

The machine is rumoured to be extremely powerful, with approximately twice as much RAM as a 360.

EA has confirmed it’s had “exposure” to the unit, and developer Netherrealm has openly admitted it’s working with a kit.

PSP2 is supposedly heading for release in late 2011.

If you’re in any doubt as to the authenticity of these images, don’t be. It is what it is. Enjoy.

Update

We’ve been told by a source that these images are from the last kit. There’s a newer one, which is a single, non-sliding block. Remember those last Kotaku rumours of the unit over heating? Sony switched back to the current PSP form in order to cool it down.

Lol, looks like a cheap gadget made in china.

Dev kits....ever heard of'em?

This looks like the real deal, as it has that rear trackpad which was rumored.

Btw who besides me thinks that the analog nubs are at ackward positions? I mean how would you control the camera while shooting?

WHITE BUTTONS??

Black suit the most.

But still it's ::

**hotgamerft** · 18-11-10, 12:14 AM

the buttons and thumb sticks are not arranged properly i.e. one would have hard time getting use to it...
the layout should've been like the ps3 controller..... arrow keys above and the buttons too & the thumb sticks below them a little closer to each other that would've been a bit more comfortable, but who knows what the final design would be

I'm happy to see those thumb-analog sticks. But the design is not so mind-blowing. The whole layout looks rough. However, this just maybe a prototype.
