Today in Joystiq: September 22, 2005

What would a day be without sex (discussion), drugs, wrestling, and anime? Sony reiterates a Spring 2006 launch window, but threw away 10,000 potential customers in the process - it is okay, because Microsoft was there to pick up the slack. The DS gets a new skin, while the PSP gets an attachment that is sure to cause at least a few dozen trips to the doctor. Here is a quick recap of everything that happened today:
