No word on if these colorful models will be released outside of Japan. The new model PSP is due out in September, whereby the old model will have to seek refuge as it's phased out.

I'm liking the blue one. Though green would be my choice. We need more video game items offered in green.

You mean like the Halo Edition 360 that looks like ass.

I completely agree. Green is an oft overlooked color, and I think that a nice green color would look great on any gaming system. I'm really digging the Halo 3 Xbox 360 color.

I really do not like halo at all, but am considering the halo-themed 360 just because it looks sweet.
when wii was first announced (as revolution) they showed all the different colors. I absolutely adored the green one and wish I could get one in that color right now.

Sony's desperate effort to gain market share in Japan.

See? Joystiq commentors will bicker all day and then see some colored PSP-2000s lined up and say "Ahh, isn't that special?"

Why are people calling it PSP-2000? Did you guys call the PS2 the SCPH-3001 or whatever the hell the model number was?
Its called the PSP. Always was and always will be.

Why do we call it the DS Phat?
Because it's funny and the company didn't give us a better way to identify it.
Same as the PSP-2000.

arrrrrgh... Those are colors they use for women's leg razors!
What is up with these companies? This is like the DS' new colors - WIMPY. Get some brighter, non-metallic colors in there! Some olive green, maybe an orange one, that ill porsche light blue... SOMETHING interesting.

That silver one is tempting. I would probably get black though so I could use the extended battery for the old one - if you get the extended battery that's available for the old PSP (or even a standard 1800ma for the old one vs the new oen which ships with 1200ma i believe), it would be even more extended on this, right? Since it is more energy efficient?

"Notice how, unlike the Nintendo DS models, none of these colors are very bright or prominent."
I was thinking the same thing. Wow.

This is *old* news. The three 'pastel' colors were announced in Europe last week.

Yeah Josh, thats right, you can use the older batteries on this PSP and since you get 4-6 hours of battery life on this one with the standard 1200 mah battery and the same with 1800 mah battery on the older PSP, use the 1800 or 2200 mah official batteries on this for excellent battery life.

The blue is very tempting.
I do like that these are more subdued colors. Makes a lasting impression. Gah, Silver bundle pack in the US or import a BLOOOOOOOO one....

These definately beat some of the godawful colors both Nintendo and Sony has released their latest handhelds as in the past...

Felicia Blue... Makes me think of the catgirl from Darkstalkers (it has her name in it, and is blue like her).
I do love the color blue, and I MAY consider that PSP... But I much prefer darker shades (like my Enamel Navy DS Lite).

I like the colors, but I wish they had some more non pastel colors.
