Hori's mesmerizing PS3 Slim LCD dock now available for import

Love at first sight may be debatable, but we had a feeling we'd be into Hori's PS3 Slim LCD dock just as soon as we laid eyes on it. A few months after first appearing overseas, the simplistic device -- which mounts an 11.6-inch LCD atop your PlayStation 3 Slim console -- is ready to be imported into these great States of America. Play-Asia is coming through in the clutch once more, offering the gizmo to those situated far, far from the Land of the Rising Sun for $259.90. It's in stock and ready to ship within 24 hours, so we'd get it on it if you were planning to get on it. Just sayin'.

[Thanks, Craig]

It's cool if you wanna sit close to your system and play.

[Plazmic Flame Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:46AM]

This reminds me of those Sega Genesis add-ons.... but to the EXTREME

[TheRealCJ Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:47AM]

Great! Now I don't need to worry about losing precious gaming time when I need to use the toilet!

... and I'm sure I can think of some other practical uses... any minute now...

@TheRealCJ: Are you implying you don't have a television and system in your bathroom?

[JakeG895 Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:54AM]

@Squalor HAHAHAHA

[TheRealCJ Posted Jul 28th 2010 10:13AM]

Well, I have a seperate bog, which is rather too small for a tv

[dec Posted Jul 28th 2010 10:13PM]

@TheRealCJ How about driving 5 hrs to sit in your tent and play LittleBigPlanet while you camp?

[cell128 Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:49AM]

Good for a long bus ride. Now of they only made some portable generators for those cell processors

[Squalor Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:49AM]

No thank you. Only I mount my PS3.

[JakeG895 Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:54AM]

@Squalor HAHAHAHA

[Bocefuss4500 Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:49AM]

only way id get one is if i had kids for those long boring car trips then again i'd get a wii for kids and keep this one for me

[pears Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:49AM]

this thing will replace the PSP

[University of Pi Posted Jul 28th 2010 4:45PM]

@pears I call it the PS3P but it's not quite pocketable

[xbrill Posted Jul 28th 2010 9:54AM]

hook it up to a portable generator and you got yourself a nice mobile gaming device.

[Rambo Posted Jul 28th 2010 10:06AM]

Remember back to PS1 days when you were the cool kid if you had that minuscule 5" screen add-on? I remember playing split-screen on that as well. "The times, they are a-changin'..."

[Christopher02 Posted Jul 28th 2010 12:18PM]

@Rambo
Don't remember that.

But I did grow up in an alternate universe.

[CBXweb Posted Jul 28th 2010 7:53PM]

@Rambo And how. I also remember going to Toys R Us in the summertime of '99 to play the then not released Sega Dreamcast. Such a jiggy time.

[wolf359 Posted Jul 28th 2010 11:15AM]

Oh my! How I remember those bygone days!

[GoonieGooGoo Posted Jul 28th 2010 11:55AM]

Hmmm....as there are no portable BLU-RAY Players yet.....this is intriguing.

[University of Pi Posted Jul 28th 2010 4:47PM]

@GoonieGooGoo I thought that too
but this one can also stream netflix so hhella-uber-cool

[jbreez Posted Jul 28th 2010 11:56AM]

Hopefully this thing will be better than that shitty screen I had one my Ps2, one day the damn thing just died on me.

[jamo23 Posted Jul 28th 2010 12:42PM]

They should make these for desktop computers. Wait a minute . . .

[University of Pi Posted Jul 28th 2010 4:48PM]

@jamo23 I know right
wait a minute that's what those fancy lightweight desks are for

[tychno360 Posted Jul 28th 2010 12:48PM]

Now people are gonna be playing Call of Duty in the airport... What has the world come to?

[lnm4444 Posted Jul 28th 2010 1:02PM]

Interesting. What would Ben Heck think?

[soren121 Posted Jul 28th 2010 1:45PM]

I'll wait until Ben Heck mods it.

[dec Posted Jul 28th 2010 10:15PM]

Speaking of strange screen devices. Anyone remember that click-on magnifying glass that they had for the Nintendo Gameboy? lol

[Jaredicus Posted Jul 30th 2010 2:44AM]

@dec I still hv 2 of those
