Survey reveals potential new colors for PSP Go
Handhelds have a penchant for donning new colors, and the PSP Go is likely to be no different. A Destructoid reader was invited to take a survey conducted by UK marketing firm Research Now. The survey pictured a number of colors, including the already-available Piano Black and Pearl White systems. Some of the colors catch our eye, like Bright Red and Blue -- but colors like Lemon and Coral look a bit too much like urine and vomit, respectively.
Of course, new colors don't really matter without the appropriate software. We wonder if anything will ever be able to dethrone the best PSP bundle ever.

Yes, but no UMD drive...
Orchard Pear @ Nov 11th 2009 8:04PM
Then buy a 3000.
Derpderpderp.
Problem solved.
Shadowfax (PSN: u2fan4894) @ Nov 11th 2009 8:09PM
I do have a 3000, it's just the PSP Go is a more expensive stripped down version of the 3000, and pretty colors don't compensate for that.

stripped down? only if you have an ASSLOAD of UMDs or buy used games.....I care for neither....and the smaller form factor along with the bluetooth and built in storage makes it worth it to me....
sony boy (6 years til sony man child!) @ Nov 11th 2009 8:54PM
oh cmon.
it's smaller, can play with a ps3 controller, pause feature, and a 16gb hard drive.
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 11th 2009 8:57PM
Oh, shit. You HAD to say it had a hard drive, didn't you! Just had to run yo mouth!
Hydrophobicfish (PSN: HydrophobicFish) @ Nov 11th 2009 11:19PM
Sure, technically it doesn't have a HDD... but we're just splitting hairs here, Darth... it has an effective HDD. That's what matters.
We wouldn't be all up in arms if he said "16 gigs of storage" instead of Hard drive.
Easo @ Nov 11th 2009 11:36PM
buy a ps3, it's only $50 dollars more and it plays actual games.
S. Tiger @ Nov 12th 2009 12:14AM
IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT DON'T BUY IT HURP DURP
That being said, just buy a 16GB Memory Stick Pro Duo or wait for the 32GB ones. Problem solved, you can now play UMDs AND digital games.
pee tee @ Nov 12th 2009 11:54AM
PSP go could be far more greater if they still give that option for users to have the UMD still intact not like this one wherein the only option for us is to don't have any UMD. Also, instead of thinking of other things to improve PSP GO (remodding features, redesign, external website to download games) they invest their time on guess what? VOILA! color-combinations! :D , I wouldn't say its not nice, but don't you think this should be the last "improvement" on their things-to-do list?

they must have forgot to include the option "Screw colors i want a UMD drive"
Evandro @ Nov 11th 2009 8:05PM
How about non-sparkly white?
coolj @ Nov 11th 2009 8:06PM
Ocean blue anyone???
Bobby Kotick @ Nov 11th 2009 8:29PM
I kinda like the pink one...
Awetoebawt @ Nov 11th 2009 9:48PM
You would.
ZetoSanNi @ Nov 12th 2009 10:49PM
I figured he'd like the green..
Balloonfighter99 @ Nov 11th 2009 8:07PM
ohh ! Coral. But what I really want is a nice lavender. Something to spruce up the place. This black will never do.
Shadow_Modder @ Nov 11th 2009 8:07PM
No matter what colors they come up with, I'm getting the Assassin's Creed PSP 3000 bundle, instead of a GO.
atrimus @ Nov 11th 2009 8:09PM
give us a price cut and i'd probably buy the thing if it were the color of Spree candy-cane.
WINterfang ( Now with the power to piss you off ) @ Nov 11th 2009 8:11PM
Sexy.
Electro Poof [Super Nintendo IT ONLY DOES EVERYTHING - Now Only $29.99] @ Nov 11th 2009 8:18PM
I want Jay-Z Blue or I don't buy.
WINterfang ( Now with the power to piss you off ) @ Nov 11th 2009 8:45PM
Jay-Z blue? since when Jay-Z had a color?
Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Nov 11th 2009 9:38PM
WINter.....
Google "Jay-Z Blue"
he's had his own color for YEARS
WINterfang ( Now with the power to piss you off ) @ Nov 11th 2009 9:45PM
Aw man, how do I get my own color? I would like a WINter green.
Freakwincy42 @ Nov 11th 2009 8:26PM
huh... the camo green, navy... gray (?)... and the creatively-named "blue" are actually pretty cool. price cut, please. oh, and Yoon- either i need to adjust my monitor or you have some messed up urine and vomit.
Andrew Yoon @ Nov 12th 2009 12:26AM
Oh no! You might be onto my non-human origins!
Freakwincy42 @ Nov 12th 2009 1:02AM
that... actually makes a lot of sense, man... huh... i learned something today.
Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Nov 11th 2009 8:32PM
I'll take a blue one in a 32GB flavor for $199 please, thanks
JeezWhiz87 @ Nov 11th 2009 8:37PM
You see what they're doing? They're getting your attention by coming out with these bright new colors to catch your eye at retail locations. This of course draws you in so you can PSPGO buy a 3000.
Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Nov 11th 2009 8:43PM
actually they will prolly introduce the colors right after or with a price drop.....
TM @ Nov 11th 2009 8:40PM
ocean blue appeals to me
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 11th 2009 8:45PM
You know, is this theory crazy?
Sony is obviously planning the PSP2. And a selling point would be BC, but the UMD drive would be expensive. By pushing people to convert to DD titles now, they'll be ready for PSP2, as well as being able to play said titles on the PSP2.
sony boy (6 years til sony man child!) @ Nov 11th 2009 8:49PM
ocean blue looks pretty sexy, but camo green looks like SHIT!!!
Gibbeynator @ Nov 11th 2009 8:51PM
I'd consider it if they released it in "$169.99 Red"
finnith @ Nov 11th 2009 10:17PM
It probably wouldn't be red because all their red would be used up on their cash flow and income statements.
sikbeta @ Nov 11th 2009 8:56PM
BLUE PSP Go all the WAY!!!
Anti-Villian @ Nov 12th 2009 11:40AM
home
AerialAngel87 @ Nov 11th 2009 9:04PM
The blue one really stands out for me =) but of course im going with the white psp and buying a skin for it =p
BPMOmega [XBL, PSN, Steam] @ Nov 11th 2009 9:07PM
I like the blue color... but still not enough interest in PSP Go to warrant buying one.
esposch @ Nov 11th 2009 9:11PM
Wow!
I hope they make that Piano Black one!
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 11th 2009 9:14PM
ME TOO!
Oh, wait...sunofa
Shimrra @ Nov 11th 2009 9:27PM
Oh great the Titanic now comes in different colors.
charlie b. @ Nov 12th 2009 12:07PM
the Titanic would have made it if they increased its fabulous-factor.
F1: Basu Gasu Bakuhatsu @ Nov 11th 2009 9:39PM
The bright yellow one fit's since it looks like shit.
Paul @ Nov 11th 2009 9:40PM
Lemon/Camo/Burgundy = auto buy
mountpanic @ Nov 11th 2009 11:54PM
I actually like the Lilac one, but I already have mine. Even if I were in the market, it would be a waste of my money to buy the Lilac bundle, 'cause F*** a Hanna Montana.
Traceur_Ryuk [Founder of The Anti-EMCB(tm) and co-leader of ATDF] (PSN: Ryuk_shinigami) @ Nov 11th 2009 11:58PM
I really want that white one...
isotrex @ Nov 12th 2009 1:46AM
i like all the colors. i hope it'll be release like that.
turquoise, ocean blue, blue, camo green, coral, heck even the pink looks cute. wahaha
kevin @ Nov 12th 2009 3:17AM
isn't this sony handheld failing real bad . so the idea here is that people will buy it due to the new shine colors they will offer. do they really think this will work. how about they stop the bullshit & just make this one work the way they made out to be in the board room at sony hope fully before they state the are working on psp go 2.
i really do miss the days when thier was only atari & coleco vision .
pika2000 @ Nov 12th 2009 5:56AM
Let me guess, all of those colors (except black and white) will be Japan only.
