Japan's getting a Mint Green PSP, you aren't

Sony's been quite liberal with its color options for the PSP over in Japan so far, and it doesn't look like things are switching up much with the PSP-2000 "slim." This time Sony's busting out a rather appetizing "Mint Green" PSP to the expectant hordes that haven't already gone broke buying the endless iterations already answered by the company. Of course, there's no word or expectation of an US release, so we're off to the art supplies shop for another set of acrylics.

I dont think I would buy a mint green PSP slim anyways, ill take the black one any day.

[Tony C @ Jan 9th 2008 11:01PM]

Just in time for St. Patties Day! =)

[Bobs @ Jan 9th 2008 11:23PM]

That would be bright or normal green, this one looks like a washed out shirt

sorry guys, my internet is sketchy, the packet was sent, but nothing was received.

[Larrytheinternetguy @ Jan 9th 2008 9:53PM]

I wouldn't get one but my girlfriend probably would. She gets almost anything green.

[apw76006 @ Jan 9th 2008 11:40PM]

Your girlfriend sounds like a fine young woman with a good head on her shoulders.

[Morgan Percy @ Jan 10th 2008 12:25AM]

including your money?

[Geir E @ Jan 10th 2008 9:19AM]

"It must be green. Supergreen."

I don't want a Green PSP...I want Skype on my Old Fatty PSP!

[BigD145 @ Jan 9th 2008 10:00PM]

It's just a faceplate. Note to Sony: release a plain aluminum faceplate and let buyers anodize it. Note to 3rd parties: release this before Sony does and corner the market in cheap alternatives like you already do.

[Neoprimal @ Jan 10th 2008 12:59AM]

If Sony makes them faceplate friendly, how will they get the breed of money they get from the few people willing to buy one in every color?

[Sauerkraut @ Jan 9th 2008 9:59PM]

DARN!!! I can't believe I'm missing out on this!

[Sauerkraut @ Jan 9th 2008 10:00PM]

Yea so sorry for the double post, but how about fixing the psp before making it into 50 colors.

[Tony @ Jan 10th 2008 4:03AM]

fixing it how?

[prateeko @ Jan 9th 2008 10:03PM]

Mmmm, for that "just brushed clean" feeling!

[Ipaq3115 @ Jan 9th 2008 10:05PM]

Does it have Skype???

[StrangeBum @ Jan 9th 2008 10:09PM]

I maybe just a bit different than most folk around here, because I'm digging this mint green one. I like green on almost anything, and on this it isn't some obnoxious neon lime green, but a rather subdued mellow green. I like it a lot.

I have an old gen.1 PSP still and it's kicking around, alive, even though my analog nub is all fucked up. But I think that PSPs are better than ever now. Great games coming out for it. And I mean after, what, two maybe three years it's about time.

[zerosozha @ Jan 9th 2008 10:55PM]

Well, that's a shame :|

[Prof.Frink @ Jan 9th 2008 11:05PM]

Am I the only guy who is reminded of the latest iPod shuffles?

[apw76006 @ Jan 9th 2008 11:31PM]

I must have it! Green, green, green, green! Sorry guys but I have this green weakness. Trust me, it would freak you out.

[Paul @ Jan 10th 2008 12:31AM]

do not want

[SOOPERGOOMAN @ Jan 10th 2008 1:00AM]

That is UGLY! Keep it over seas! Don't even let it be imported this way! It will lessen the aura that the PSP has! Whose lame idea was this?

[Wwhat @ Jan 10th 2008 3:17AM]

Looks like some medical device with that color, smart to not even try to sell it in the west.
Or add a bloodpressure/sugarlevel attachment maybe.

[Superevil @ Jan 10th 2008 9:36AM]

Good, they can keep it.

[Jeff @ Jan 10th 2008 11:01AM]

Not in the US!

But I love Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream!!!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Jess Q. @ Jan 10th 2008 1:34PM]

I'd gladly trade in my Vader PSP for that. Much nicer looking. But uh, I'm a girl. I wouldn't guess too many guys would want it.

And I'd want pink but I already have a pink DS. Gotta change it up.

[npChaos @ Jan 10th 2008 7:30PM]

Great more portable gaming devices that consistently resemble toothpaste...

[Chris @ Jan 10th 2008 6:08PM]

What percentage of Sony's target market, to your best estimate, has the equipment necessary to do a home anodization?
