Hot off the heels of tonight’s surprise debut of the Nintendo DSi, (a new portable system which can connect to a network store to purchase downloadable games) Sony has fired back with an even more surprising system redesign. Previously, the Sony PSP was known less for its forgettable library of games and more for its ability to be hacked and serve as a shiny emulator for classic Nintendo roms and the PSPi has just upped the game. Sony chairman Kaz Hirai was eager to break it down for dat ass. “You can illegally download Nintendo DS roms and play them on this fucking thing. Just buy it so I don’t get fired.”

Pirates and hackers (who comprise 97% of the PSPi’s proposed demographic) were already on the take and even went as far as to hack the screens that the first images of the PSPi were being projected on replace them with tentacle porn and custom Super Metroid levels. Sony handheld division fans can look forward to continuing their dedicated lineage of playing mostly stolen Nintendo games on their otherwise worthless portable brick this fall when the PSPi hits shelves and falls off and breaks instantly.
