Would you pay $376 for PSP speakers?


Tokyo Game Show is over, which means we'll have to start covering "real news." Ha! Let's kick the week off right by showcasing one of the biggest wastes of money I can think of for the system. The Gamexpert PSP Hi-Fi lets you "get the ultimate sound experience from your PSP... This powerful Hifi system houses a 23W RMS amplifier to pump out high quality audio and also incorporates a PSP docking station and remote for convenience."

Uh... somehow 23 watts is supposed to be awe-inspiring? The creators of this sound dock have forgotten that this system is meant to be portable: no way do I want to dock my PSP on this monstrosity of a speaker device to listen to music or, even more hilariously, watch a UMD movie from afar. Most of us normal people can use our computers or televisions to do that better if we didn't want a mobile experience. To add insult to injury, the company is charging a ridiculous $376 for the device (£199.99), making it one of the worst purchases I can think of for the PSP.
