Put the whole world in your hands in new PSP ad

by Andrew Yoon { Nov 12th 2008 at 11:50PM }

We love this sick new PSP ad from SCEE. This ad campaign really effectively tells us that PSP can do a lot of things. Yes, you have the whole world in your hands -- get it? The modern remix of the classic kids tune works surprisingly well in this ad that's as playful as a PlayStation ad should be. We haven't seen something so effective in selling a product in quite some time. Good job!

Check out the ad after the break.

Hey PSPfanboy, Sony open today the PSN for Mexico, just 3 games, but I hope they add more, and a few day ago the added a lot more of Latinamerica countries...

And the Loco Roco part is great, I can`t wait for the game...

Wow! Is that true?
PSN on Mexico, but what if i've registered my PSP from another country? Example Spain, for the European PSN or NY for se US PSN?
Lol xD

Now, if they can only fix that screen!

I can't wait to buy a new one :)

Now if they can only come out with some games. Going to be an odd holiday, selling PSPs but having no new games for it (according to Gamestop, 2 are coming out week, then no more until January). 2 months of no games at all, right smack in the holiday season!

(Also, that Bahamut game is apparently for the DS, sadly)

Didn't someone in SCEA already come out and say that this holiday season would be pretty bad, but that holiday 2009 would be chock full of games? It seemed a bit silly to say that so far in advance of the 2008 holiday season, and probably will hurt PSP sales a bit, honestly.

Exactly, way back in summer, Sony said this holiday would be terrible. Instead of saying that, they should have done something about it.

I know, 6 months isn't a lot of time. But Sony has a bunch of games in Japan that have never been released in the US that they could have been localizing. There are games in Europe (and Asia) in English that haven't been released in the US. They could have published (or co-published) some of those.

Great ad! No wonder I'm contented with my life. It's because I've got the whole world in my hands. haha j/k

I don't really like this ad, since I think of my psp as a console for games primarly, but yeah, it may convince more ppl to get psp and it really needs more attention than it gets. Good to know that SCEE is doing something.

Wasn't expecting that singer to be the singer.

Finally a great add :D It works pretty well, but to bad that most games showed there are all out, except LR2...
