how improved are the d-pad and analog nub ?

i own a phat psp. playing sims or those games with twitchy controls like superbike 2007 and pro evo just seems impossible!

I have been doing a bit of reaserch and have found that the conrols have been improved on the slim psp.

so could some one please tell me if the improvements are noticable enough?

Also i have only had this console for a week now, so is it worth selling this and buying a slim for JUST THE IMPROVED CONTROLS? (i am not bothered about the loading times and the tv output etc)

thanks

you probably shouldn't bother,the buttons are only slightly raised and hardly noticeable.It's not worth the effort.pspboy666

HUGE DIFFERENCE

well, the buttons are way stiffer on the psp phat, so its harder to move, so yes.

The d-pad and buttons are definitely improved so that you can notice the difference, but the difference isn't greatly significant.

It's better is what you need to know.

And if you're not afraid of opening up your PSP, there's an amazing d-pad mod you can use that'll render any advantages the Slim has button-wise null.
