A lot of the article (excluding the games list and specifications) is either saying how much the PSP failed or being hypothetical about how good it is before setting up more negativity. There are some positive things in the article, but it doesn't excuse the negativity.

There was a Rewrite PSP sandbox, but it has not been edited since last year, and after looking throughout the history, it did not seem to be doing much better in terms of neutrality.

I would be willing to assist with the rewriting myself, but since I haven't owned a PSP I'm not sure how much I could contribute. I started off by removing a couple of snide comments.

Damn it... why do these things pop up right before I go off to do real life chores?

Sigh... if nobody gets to it before later this evening, I'll do a dramatic cleanup of that. It's one thing to note that it wasn't as successful as Sony had hoped, or that it clearly lost to the DS in the portable wars, but that's an abomination of an entry.

Reminder: Offscreen Villainy does not count towards Complete Monster.

I'll go do some more cleanup now. Might as well get it started.

EDIT: There. I attempted to remove the negativity without drastically changing the page, hopefully it looks better. I don't have anymore time for now to work on it, but if I have time later tonight or tomorrow I'll go work on it if it's necessary.

The first paragraph should be folded into the second.

Isn't this page just too long in the first place? I really don't think we need all that detail about its history.

These are also meant to be Useful Notes pages. See the spec listing sections. So history is necessary.
