We've been seeing these
colorful PSPs around, but it looks like
Sony is getting for reals and finally releasing them to the public. We've got pink, silver and blue, any one of which should significantly boost your fashionista cred, though we can't say they'll do a whole lot for your Locoroco score. If you want to take things to the next level, you can also nab an incredibly pink Samantha Thavasa purse for carrying your pink PSP, which will also do absolutely nothing for you Locoroco game, but plenty to inspire envy among teenage Japanese girls the world over. All of this will be hitting retail on November 22nd, but there's no word on price or whether this is some sort of limited run. As for cash, we suppose you could always crack open the PS3 fund, 'cause if you haven't nabbed one of 'em yet,
the odds are slim you'll have need for that Yen before next year. We're also a tad curious about international availability, since those Lik-Sang and Play-Asia wells
sure have dried up. Peep the purse after the break.

i got a black psp and gettind a white one because the black one iz thicker and havier,as for the other colours they suck
I have a black psp and I'd want to replace it with pink, but I thanked God I did not replace it because the most beautiful color is black
Who cares...when is the GPS coming
I feel dirty just for owning an original black PSP. I think I'll try to ebay my old PSP today. Since all I ever use it for is placeshifting TV shows.
Sony is ANTI-consumer.
Still think black's the best...
But I'd prefer this pink over the other Pink (or P!nk, is it nowadays?). :-)
Okay, I get the releasing of pink portable game units.... but hows about a more quality-looking shade of it? This looks only sightly better than the pink DS Lite, which in person can easily be mistaken for someone's birth control.
Don't forget about the new color PS2's as well! Go to: http://www.kilian-nakamura.com/blog-english/?p=236
Sony is polishing the turd. How about coming out with some mind blowing games. That'll boost sales.
alla DS Lite
Maybe it's just the pics, but those colors look cheesy. Where's the gloss? Where's the deep, sexy colors?
Great more worthless garbage from the devil. How about a keyboard? Or how about leaving my grey market buddies alone? D2S!!!
PSP has been quite a disappointment to me. I was pretty excited about it originally and almost bought one at launch. After some consideration though I just couldn't think of any games I actually wanted to plan on it other than Lumines. A friend of mine did get one at launch and ended up selling it along with all his PSP games for quite a loss just so he could get a DS. I don't imagine new colors will solve the issue of lackluster games.
Where is the Golden PSP used to fight Satan's Armies?
Who cares. Seriously.
Ahh, Sony's attempt to battle the nintendoian giant, the DS.
New colors. Great. Meanwhile the latest firmware update merely cracks down on homebrew a little bit more and provides absolutely no new features...
>>Who cares. Seriously.
Then why comment? Seriously.
>>Who cares...when is the GPS coming
December in Japan, think Q1 in North America.
>>Who cares. Seriously.
Then why bother commenting? Seriously.
>>Who cares...when is the GPS coming
Early-December for the camera and GPS for Japan, likely soon after for North America.
Because a handheld that's only getting beat out by the DS and PS2 in Japan is definitely a failure. >.>
Seriously, the PSP has better rated games overall than the DS and it's damn sexier to boot!
...Whatever you need to tell yourself to get through the day.
Finally, a silver one to match my MacBook Pro. Too, bad I already have a black one. Black PSP, meet Mr. Krylon. Maybe while I'm at it, I'll hide my iSight light to look like the the C2D MacBook Pro's
i hocked my psp. I got tired of constantly having to figure out ways to runhomebrew after upgrading my firmware, or find ways out of upgrading my firmware to play games.
My DS may not have the sexy screen, but the games are fun, and nintendo does almost nothing to try to squash homebrew on it. There's always new programs coming out. I just tried out a voice over IP program that ran really well.
I'll miss my psp when the GPS finally shows up. But i'll get over it. I refuse to support a company thats been as tremendously anti consumer as sony has been this last year.
I wonder why does Sony think that all Americans like the color black as their choice of gaming consoles? They should take a cue from Apple and Nintendo. I would certainly rock a silver PSP but nooooooooooooo, they rather try to sell us an overpriced "entertainment" pack with some worthless game and umd combo.
While it's not likely to affect gameplay, the color around the border of the screen most definitely affects our perception of the colors on the screen (consult any color theory or graphic design text). Black has a tendency to make colors look brighter and generally more "colorful" than those surrounded by a white border.
The blue one looks alright, and the silver one looks marginally better than that, but the sexiness of this particular device is definitely lacking in any color other than black.
Awww... Did someone hurt your ego?
Great... Is this going to help Sony bring out better games? No? Or, is this going to help Sony work with their customers, instead of against them? No? Well why don’t they try sticking a toupee on it, maybe THAT will work.
'Sony busting out three new PSP colors this month'
and they are all disgusting. fantastic.
god i am sick of everyone banging on about how crap the PSP is, if you hate it that much go and play with your DS and stop bothering those who enjoy owning one.
I'll admit, it could still do with a few more excellent games, but let's be honest, Sony haven't done THAT badly considering practically every company that challenged Nintendo in the console market completely failed and went bankrupt.
I think what happened was that Sony overhyped it, and everyone was expecting this absolutely amazing handheld, but what we got was a decent handheld. If Sony kept their trap shut then no one would have got over excited about it and the PSP may have caught on more.
As for the colours? Not bad, but Sony could really pull off something better to improve sales.
That blue one has my name on it, I'll be getting my 3rd PSP for Xmas it seems.
It's amazing how Sony is now following Nintendo.
I've got both a PSP and DSLite. Both are enjoyable. But the PSP has far superior graphics and sound capabilities. Compare the latest Need for Speed game, Carbon. On the PSP it looks and plays way better than the DSLite. But, the DSLite has strengths in other game areas. Own them both, why choose. But don't bother with a new PSP with firmware above 2.71. It's useless.
Cool, brand new rainbows of colors for the PSP. I wonder when they will make a great game which will make me smile a rainbow. Surprising, isn't it?
it rocks, no body likes plain black. i have three of them, pink, black, and white because i am filthy rich!!!!
i am 2 b nved!!
