A platform that offered many quality products to fans like Daxter, God of War: Ghost of Sparta, LocoRoco, Patapon or even Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. It also succeeded in the intent of accompany several generations of PlayStation, as they have released titles over us simultaneously with those PS2, PS3, PSVITA and PS4 during its long period of life.

Last weekend the PSP it is though trendy back on Twitter Japanese, this is because many people have begun to report the explosion of lithium batteries in all published handheld console models. An apparently common case for several devices with this kind of charging system, even if I note to be one of the most widespread of the period. To tell the truth, this fact of the swelling is well known by the community of enthusiasts for several years now: just think that the first reports date back to 2007. But it is certainly curious how many users have decided to share the status of their batteries more than fifteen years after the original release of the console.

A case that certainly demonstrates how the videogame platforms of the past have still a lot to discuss, not only for the hidden gems of the location but also for common or painful facts that come brought to light thanks to social networks. Precisely the latter have a media power that allows you to revive certain topics in another light, and that's what is currently happening with the sixteen-year-old PlayStation Portable. While waiting to find out if this fact is also happening to users, we remind you that in 2014 the dear Sony Interactive Entertainment has decided to close access to the PlayStation Network from PSP.
