Hey everyone,
welcome to another episode
of "The Retro Challenge" here on "The Lowdown".
- Now today we're going to check out a retro Sony product
from the past 75 years.
We have no idea what's underneath this cloth,
but we're gonna find out and once we do,
we're going to guess the year this product was released.
We're going to guess how much this product cost
during that year, as well as a wildcard question
tossed to us by our producers
and whoever guesses the most correct answers
will win the coveted
Retro Challenge Trophy.
- This is new.
- This is nice.
- It's very nice. - It's gonna stay here
because I'm gonna win.
- We'll see, okay, ready? - Okay, ready?
- [Sidney And Jenna] One, two, three.
It's the PSP!
- [Jenna] Oh my gosh, it is.
- [Sidney] That's awesome, so cute.
- [Jenna] It's so cute, oh my gosh.
- Okay, so now that we know that it's a PSP,
let's find out if the new headsets work.
- Okay, oh, good idea.
- So we have the H3s, let's plug it in.
Yeah, I can hear it.
- Really? - I can hear it, yeah.
- [Jenna] This is amazing.
- Okay, so now that we know that that's a PSP,
let's go ahead and figure out
what year the PSP was released.
- Okay. - So, the clues are
the number one movie
that was released during that year was "Shrek 2".
- Okay and the second clue was the number one hit song
was Mariah Carey, "We Belong Together".
Hmm. - Okay, all right.
Well, let's put down the year.
- I don't even remember what I did yesterday.
Do you remember what you did when "Shrek 2" was popular?
- I was enjoying it,
that's for sure. - Yeah, that's definitely
something that was happening.
- All right, got my answer. - Not sure how I feel
about that but that's okay.
- All right, ready? - Okay,
are we ready for the answer?
- Ready, one, two, three and go.
- [Jenna] What do you got, 2000,
what, that's an automatic, terrible!
- Oh no, I meant to put 2005, no it's
supposed to be two zeros. - You said 205, let's go to
the answer which is-
- I meant to put 2005, I forgot to put the extra zero.
- I think the point goes to Jennifer
knowing how years work.
Thank you, everyone,
I will gladly accept that point.
- I meant to put another zero.
Okay, all right, fine,
whatever. - Maybe, hey, we don't know,
maybe you really thought this was-
- Let's move on to the next question, shall we?
So now- - This is the only way
I can get points.
- We have to guess how much the PSP cost in the year 205.
I'm gonna go with my default answer and pretend
it's gonna be right. - Make sure you do all
of the numbers this time.
- Don't look! - Okay.
- All right. - I will say that's worse
than the the one time you said something about the deli.
- That's right. - Okay, how much
did this cost in 2005?
- And- - Go!
- 349, 499, okay.
- I don't know.
- The answer is $249,
yeah baby!
249?
- Wow, very cool.
All right so- - I guess that's,
I mean, this could get you a PlayStation 5.
Hmm. - It can, all right so,
we are officially tied.
And so now- - Okay.
- Our producers are going to give us a wildcard question.
So the wildcard question is how many units
of the PSP were sold worldwide?
All right, let's see. - This could be anything.
- Okay, all right.
Okay, so I feel good about this number.
- Do you?
- No, not at all. - I haven't written-
- No, okay. - Here we go.
- Ready?
- One. - Two.
- [Both] Three.
- I said 10 million.
- I said 35 million.
- Which is crazy, 'cause I wanted to say 25 million.
- Really, okay, and the correct answer is 82 million,
oh man!
- Wow! - I guess the trophy
goes to me.
- [Jenna] That's impressive sales.
- You know what's impressive?
This trophy. - Oh my gosh.
Okay, all right, all right.
So, you did win this round.
Congratulations.
- Thank you very much. - You have the trophy.
Wow, I guess I didn't know much about PSP sales.
- And also, 205 should not be a year
that any product was released.
Make sure to grab yourself the INZONE products.
- [Jenna] These headsets are equipped with aligning features
with their 360 spatial sound, all day comfort design,
and Discord certification.
