There's more things. Like LocoRoco, MGS, Wipeout and PS1 games. Oh, and Mega Drive games.

It's also my mp3 player.

I prefer my gadgets to do one thing and do it right.

My Nintendo DS Lite plays game, and I love it. My iPod nano plays my music, and I love it.

Plus playing PS1 games on PSP is just wrong, there is no R2, L2, R3, L3. I know of a lot of PS1 games that required the use of these buttons frequently, some of them even required simultaneous use of both the right and left analog sticks.

See, I'm the opposite, I like to condense as much as possible.

The PS1 didn't even have analogue sticks for most of it's life, even then hardly any games used both anyway.

Plus Select + L = L2, Select + R = R2.

If you need two analogue sticks, you're just out of luck.

well, I don't fully understand this. PSP launch was around the same time as Nintendo DS. So, What does it mean by "because it's been a long time since the launch of PSP?

For all intents and purposes, the DS didn't exist as they mean it until the DS Lite.

Sorry to say that, but that is an awkward combination. I know of a lot of PS1 games that required pushing all shoulder buttons. Some games did require the use of the right stick.

Ape Escape is one game that comes to mind, Twisted Metal also required the frequent use of shoulder buttons, and a lot of games for a lot of cheats require a combination of all shoulder buttons.
