PSP receives 'carnival colors' in Asia

by Alexander Sliwinski { Jan 8th 2009 at 5:48PM }

Sony Asia has revealed two new striking "Carnival Color" PSP-3000 models for the region. The "Radiant Red" and "Vibrant Blue" handhelds will begin burning Asian retinas on January 17th for roughly $177 each.

There's no word on whether these colors will make it to other regions; however, CES is currently going on, so there may be an announcement buried in the circus. We've contacted Sony and will update with any new info.

Sora @ Jan 8th 2009 6:09PM

I think they should release a "Urine Yellow" color instead.

when the Wii stops selling Millions of units a month

but believe me, when Nintendo releases colored Wiis, the world as we know will cease to exist.

i know its been done but does any1 think Sony will release a PSP with a clear casing, or like a smokey black case like they have on those Dualshocks2's ? i wud buy that PSP for sure even tho i have to much shit i lug around

HippoHero @ Jan 8th 2009 7:35PM

Ditto for that. I don't know what it is, but something about seeing all of those little wires and things inside the casing just turns me on.

ChiTownRuler23 @ Jan 8th 2009 7:40PM

yah i just like lookin at all the parts and wires and thinkin "wow this lil stuff put together can do so much"

And here's America, still with only about 4 other pretty boring variations other than the original Piano black. If there's anything besides appealing to a younger crowd, the one thing Sony should learn from the NDS is that whoring variations may screw over some consumers, but it'll bring you in a shitload of dough.
