PSP Slim not compatible with some SDTVs

Kotaku brings word of a potentially upsetting development for the PSP Slim & Lite,  especially for those who are not so keen on reading background information about their purchases.

Sony‘s new handheld, for those who do not know, needs some special attention if you want it to work on your standard definition televisions.

The picture indicates that to get a working signal from Sony’s PSP Slim onto your SDTV, you’ll need to connect the two using a component AV cable or D-terminal AV cable and then have a progressive scan video output as well.

If you’re thinking of purchasing a PSP Slim for the coveted ability to play UMD videos and games on regular TVs, you may want to check if your TV has these minimum requirements ready for play.

For those who currently have PSP Slim units out there, you may want to go check it out on your TVs. The PSP Slim may be a great handheld for mobile gaming, but this little caveat leaves something to be desired, especially since not everyone has the latest SDTVs out there.
