My favorite game has arrived on PSP!
Engadget reports that someone has hacked a version of Tetris that runs on the PSP. Sure, it’s a JavaScript version that runs inside the hacked browser found in Wipeout Pure, but that doesn’t mean it’s not kick arse.
Tetris is by far my favorite game of all time so this actually makes me want to buy one of these things.
Note that this came out of a PSP/DS hack challenge and no one submitted even one DS hack. What does this tell me? There’s no enthusiast community around the GameBoy DS; if I were working at Nintendo, I’d be pretty concerned right about now…
Update: Engadget also reports that Nintendo isn’t going to show their next generation console at E3 this year. If I were working at Nintendo, I’d be straight up crapping my pants right now.

If you love Tetris, tell me you have Lumines. Pure digital crack, it is. If you don’t have it for some reason, run - don’t walk! - to your nearest purveyor of electronic entertainment and get it.
You can check out my impressions of it in recent audio and video podcast content at www.tinyscreenfuls.com.
Cheers!

Have you seen Lumines on the PSP? It’s a tetris-like game. Much prettier than javascript tetris.
Engadget has something about people hacking the DS and getting a TI-85 emulated on it. That’s pretty cool. Only possible with the touch screen.
I still think the PSP will be the device I get when I get aroudn to buying a portable gaming device.
