   @egirlyuumimain Never had a PSP back in it's heyday but it's a solid system with CFW and if you can find a good battery for it. Sadly the OG batteries are all swollen and dead now. Though I'd rather just emulate the games since the cieling to do so is pretty low sys requirements wise.

     @ooignignoktoo @egirlyuumimain I saw someone in the train station carrying something that looked exactly like a PSP but with some kind of thing on the top with an antenna, any idea what that might be?

     @ooignignoktoo @egirlyuumimain it definitely looked like this, but the guy was walking in the busy station looking at it, which was strange

     @sun @egirlyuumimain Not sure if the PSP had a TV tuner add on?
     
     *edit apparently it had a digital TV tuner for Japan to receive digital broadcasts. I wonder if the dude on the train was using it to watch TV on the go. I know the Game Gear had one but sadly it no longer works because it used analog broadcast waves which got phased out back in 2009.
     
     *2nd edit* it was 2009. I remember it happening after I graduated high school and people were freaking out because they had to junk their old rabbit ears for one with a digital tuner or get a convertor box.

     @sun @egirlyuumimain Apparently from reading up about it online it's a tuner that uses the 1seg TV system which only exists in Japan, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Peru and the Philippines

     @ooignignoktoo @egirlyuumimain I don't actually know if it was a PSP or some kind of Chinese handheld but this is very close to what it looked like, just kind of interesting
