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

[NintendoCollecting]

To Do: Copy Scott's resume and become a video game talker

[MarioFromMario]

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.

9:47 I was once playing my DSi in public (and it looks much like a 2dsxl). A guy passing said “that guy’s ds is huge!” The girl walking with him replied, “Josh you’re such a pervert.”

[RarelyReplies]

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.

[PedroPaulo]

Scott: "There is no incentive to people buy multiple consoles"
Also Scott: Buys 9 Wii Us

[gregoryb]

reasons I like Scott:

1 - He doesn't believe gamers are people

[PaopuPup]

When the Wii released, my mother sat outside of a Toys “R” Us all evening and all morning and ended up getting me one for Christmas… Still one of my favorite memories is her coming home and going to bed and having to be quiet because we wanna play the game

[howshrek]

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!?"

[jmaguire]

The fact that they could put the PSP’s graphics on a handheld was pretty mind blowing to me at the time.

[ericdundas]

The DS is insane. It's also the only system on this list that I've seen 8 people play together locally on. Justified

[arazet]

Me when a Scott the Woz video is in an official YouTube playlist

[Seen]

I like how "get robbed" was on Scott's to-do list. He really does plan his year ahead of time.

[JefflezZz]

Next Episode, Scott is covered in blood:
"hey all! Scott here! I got my stuff back! Now I have more games to talk about!"

*Talks about Super Mario 3D World*

The Xbox 360 > PS4 shift was like watching a political party flip the House, Senate and Presidency in one year

[jaydee]

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.

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.

[crashbandicoot]

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.

[PowerPandaMods]

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.

[ryujisakamoto]

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.
