PlayStation Portable Core PSP

Before Vita and long before Switch, Sony’s first real handheld competitor to the DS was the PSP. PSP Core Console represents the original configuration of that system, built around UMD physical media and a genuinely impressive-for-its-time widescreen display.

PSP Core Console Features

• Widescreen display supporting UMD physical game and movie discs
• Original Core hardware configuration, distinct from later Slim and Lite revisions
• Built-in Wi-Fi for multiplayer connectivity on supported titles
• Access to a substantial catalog of PSP-exclusive action, RPG, and racing games
• Compact, genuinely pocketable design for its era

UMD discs feel dated now, but PSP Core Console’s library still holds up, with several exclusive RPGs and action titles that never made it to any other Sony platform.

Because this is the original Core model rather than a later revision, expect a slightly heavier, thicker unit compared to the Slim or Lite versions that followed it.
