Daydreaming

I was sitting here at my work and was daydreaming...hrm, i mean i was working hard ;-)...anyway. I was thinking about useful things i want to see for the PSP (Playstation Portable) and the Nintendo DS.

I don´t have any of the machines, they haven´t even been released in Europe yet, but that dosen´t stop me.

Anyway, the things i thought of was:

1. Making the PSP/NDS into a remote controller for your TV/DVD/Stereo/and other stuff.

That would be kinda cool, wouldn´t it?

2. Emulators. I am currently more interested in buying PSP than the NDS, so therefore i really want to see a Super Nintendo (Snes) and a PSX (Playstation One) emulator for the PSP.

My all time favorite console is the Snes, i find myself from time to time playing through some of my favorite games. Some of my favorites are (in no special order):

* Super Metroid
* Final Fantasy 3
* Chrono Trigger
* Cybernator
* Goof Troop
* Super Star Wars
* The Legend Of Zelda: Links Awakening

3. Another cool feature would be a tv guide. Especially for the NDS, since it has double screens and one is pressure sensitive. Picture the image that you have a NDS in your hands. On the above screen is a tv guide and on the lover screen you have a remote controller for your tv. You would be able to switch the tv controller screen so you could get the tv guide there instead.

4. Built in harddrive. This idea is for the PSP, but Sony has released the PSP in Japan and it didn´t have a built in harddrive. Instead you have to buy their expensive memorycards. A person on a forum i´m visiting and writing in a lot, has bought the PSP and 1.5 GB memory card, he had to pay 1500:- (Swedish krona) for that card (!!). That´s way too expensive as i see it...of course the prices will change, but still if feels unnecessary to pay for a little thing that Sony could have put in their machine for a low cost.
