Get a PSP1000 for cheap, you can run GBA games great!

and dammit, I didn't wanna bother with any hacks or mods, but after a very short time googling for info I really want to now...guess I'll go with psp...any badass games I should be aware of?

Well, it depends on what genres you actually enjoy ...
but these games are a MUST HAVE (In My Opinion )
Monster Hunter Series
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII
Dissidia: Final Fantasy
Phantasy Star Portable 1 & 2
Ys Series
and yes they're all RPG's ;D

Final Fantasy Tactics anyone?
Technically released on GBA but it got a PSP re-release which was "OMG AWESOME"
silly people emulate the GBA version on the PSP then realise that it was actually remade for PSP :D

The psp has a fair few RPGs btw, I made a list half a page long of ones to download the other day. Plus with the extra back compatibility if you hack, and the ability to play PSone games as well,so for me its a winner. :)

Not to mention the "generic" media abilities it has with music, videos etc. Browser is a piece of shit... but oh well.
I don't think I've touched my PSP1000 since something like the ?.5 or ?.6 days. Pretty much 6 months or a year before they had the battery hack. My bro bricked his, perma borrowed mine, and then I just gave up. PSP is a great solo handheld though. If you want to socialize, it's called a DS.
I seriously love the PSP. Really should grab a battery hack or two somewhere to use as "back up" for the so called bricked one. A cheap MSPD easily will make it a great afterthought. Patapon is pretty cool. Silly but cool.
Damn, I recall the days when my bro was like, "Hey, there's this cool game for the PSP called patapon (1)." At the time I thought it was retarded. Now, I think it's sort of nifty. :P There's like 3 patapons now?

They have an unbricker though. I believe it also uses the same pandora's battery that the regular hack does.
As the people above have said, once you homebrew your psp it becomes great for portable emulation and sony's psone emulator is built in. As for rpg's, Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep came out a while ago. I also recommend Persona 1 and Persona 3 portable. There's also shadow of destiny which is a remake of a psone game but I haven't played that one yet.
For action rpg's I believe the untold legends games qualify as well as kingdom of paradise but for a list of psp rpg's you can always check gamefaqs http://www.gamefaqs.com/psp/list-48

There are lots of great RPGs on PSP, not to mention original PSX RPGs you can buy on PSS and tons of remakes. Now I'm waiting for Tactics Ogre remake. On the other hand NDS have as much RPGs if not more...
