Also shown was a media clip from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children on the PSP. More info soon!

There is also a thread for the Nintendo DS. This has been made in the Handhelds section of the forums.

This system sounds really cool. I was thinking about getting my mom a GBA SP for her birthday, but this sounds like it's worth the wait. I think gamespy or gamespot or gamestop or one of those places has a video preview of one of the games.

Sony's PSP could very well be the next big thing in handhelds. With the support of Square-Enix, I don't see how this system can fail. Come on, everyone knows the only reason Sony is alive is because of them.

Advent Children???

What FF is that - anyone know the story?? :O

lol, sorry i can't help you there, all i know is that they showed a clip of FFVII!
