I was planning on sticking with the older models anyway, so the fact that most of my games aren't on that list isn't really a big deal. As long as the physical games can be bought alongside the digital downloads, then I'm happy.
This is a pretty decent olive branch from Sony, unfortunately for me none of the 17 games they offer appeal to me in the least. Now if they extended the offer to a digital copy of any 3 games from your UMD collection (verification of ownership could probably be done by putting the UMD in the drive and connecting to PSN) then I'd totally bite. But the offer as it is now is as you said, deserves a golf clap.
This is good, but I still have "must have games" on my psp, some of which are Final Fantasy Tactics (psp ver), Lumines, other random games...... what about those? I can't play them anymore? They need to figure out something else..
Finally, something good out of all this. However, nothing I want is there, and most of the good stuff they don't have as well.
@funran
Everyone should be asking that same question, because everyone should own (and love) a copy of Tactics. I love the DS and GBA Tactics game, but I desperately want a new one that is more similar to the original. Politics and intrigue instead of Bangaa and magic books.

But I only own one of those games. Sure, I'm getting new games for my old games for free, but none of there's a reason I didn't buy some of those games already (lack of interest) and really just cements my decision to keep my old PSP and all of my old games.
That list looks suspiciously like..... all of the games on PSN for psp!
O BURN.
Disclaimer: I have a 3k, I prefer umd, and I am rather disappointed at the selection on psn for psp, although I appreciate that they left Tokobot out of that list.

There is maybe 1 or 2 good games on that list. I don't even know what I would get.
I'll stick with my 3000, thanks.

This barely even merits a golf clap, more like whatever the sound of me slapping my dick on their face would be. I bought your games $ony, I bought your original launch system. I want to buy your PS3. And this is how you treat me? Thanks for setting a standard that makes Nintendo's treatment of their core fanbase look rewarding. God what happened to you guys after the PS2...

I'll take them. My new Aquatic Base of Evil Water Bases needs some entertainment.

I own none of those games and while three free games is great that still means my current library is incompatible. :/
What SexualChocolate said.
I guess they just couldn't resist capitalizing on the immense popularity of the game over in Japan :(

Its a start. I own 17 games, and two movies because I'm an idiot. None of which are those any of those games listed. $250 dollars is way too much money to pay for something that is going to supplement my PSP, instead of replacing it.
No sale, Sony. You're slowing crawling in the right direction though.

That's not so good. I assume the PSPgo is squarely aimed at new users as opposed to upgraders then because I can't see it being worth it if you already have one.
If you already have a PSP, do you really need to upgrade?? I've been hearing nothing but bitching and moaning from current owners while its been pretty obvious that the PSPgo isn't being released for them. Besides spending more money, there's nothing you guys are missing out on. I mean I didn't rush out and buy a PS3 Slim just because Sony released it >_>
Until they give us previous model PSP owners a title-for-title UMD-to-digital swap, there is no reason to upgrade. The PSPgo looks sexy enough, and not lugging around UMDs sounds great, but who wants to flush a dozen or so UMD games (and thus the $400 or so spent on them over the years) down the drain?
HEY if you don't want the PSPGo.. don't buy it..or buy it and don't sell your original PSP. How hard is that?
@ Ouched
Just wait. They're bound to fuck that ground gaining up aannnnny minute now...
It's a step in the right direction, yes. But is it a path they will continue to tread onwards upon...probably not. This is Sony we're talking about here.

I already own like half of those games and the others I wouldn't want, but if you haven't played them the medievil, daxter and resistance retribution are all awesome games
Thank Christ that Buzz Brain Bender & Buzz Master Quiz are on there. I was super worried I'd lose them in the upgrade.
I don't even think this deserves a golf clap, this doesn't account for volume and the library available is shamefully shallow. This doesn't really take away from the several bad points about the PSP Go which are:
1) Too expensive
2) Poor PSN catalogue
3) Cheap second-hand and new UMD games
4) UMD Incompatibility
5) Slightly worse battery life
6) Old peripherals incompatible
7) Exclusive, cheaper PSP-3000 bundles (Like with Gran Turismo).

My PSP is dying and needs to be replaced.
The PSP GO gets announced. I get excited.
The lack of a UMD slot proceeds to worry me about my UMD collection.
This offer is announced.
...And...
...While Ratchet and Clank, Patapon, and LocoRoco are nice...
...I'd rather a "Register the UMD, download the Game" system instead.

@ Everyday Legend
Oh I would agree. In Sony's mind, this is probably the UMD solution we were promised. If you have UMDs and want a PSPgo, be prepared to buy them again, unless its one of these 17, and even then, no more than 3 of them.
At this point, I would even entertain sending in my physical UMDs if it meant I got the rights to download them in perpetuity, but Sony isn't interested in an actual solution. Its interested in trying to sell an over priced, featureless device, with the same design problems every iteration of the PSP has.
Well, I'll keep my $250. Maybe finally buy a Dreamcast instead.

I can understand all the people complaining about this, but from a personal point of view, if I'm reading this right, I 'm now very termpted to get one. My position is that I own a PSP 2000 with one UMD. So, does this mean that I could buy a Go from play (£199) get a free copy of GTpsp and then download three more games free of charge and then sell my old PSP and game on ebay??
What a load of crap. That's a terrible list of games that barely encompasses the library and is a weak mix of first and second party titles.
Where's Hot Shot Golf, Lumines, Lumines ii, GTA Liberty City, GTA Vice City, FFTA, Rondo of Blood, Madden, Burnout, Need for Speed?
I realize that there's third party agreements to get worked out in cases like this but it's just really telling that Sony is putting a terribly low priority on making this thing appealing to anyone save for new owners.
If I still owned A PSP, I would be offended at this upgrade offer.

Killzone:Liberation, Ratchet & Clank and LocoRoco are 3 of the best games on the PSP. Not bad.
@Bludesign
Hot Shots Golf is the same as Everybody’s Golf. Stupid EU and USA name changes.

I always think of either Hot Shots or "minna no golf", which is the Japanese name. :)
and I realize everyone has their own favorite games but that list of titles is absurdly short given that none of those title were exactly system sellers like God of War, Lumines, insert sports game here..., or the GTA games.
