New PSP, PS2 Colors for Japan

[Demon_Skeith]

Sony is giving Japan the gift of new colors for both the PS2 and PSP later this summer. The company anounced today a red PS2 and a blue PSP, to be available in limited quantities in July.

The blue PSP, officially "Metalic Blue," will come in two forms: as part of a Value Pack and as part of a 1seg Pack. The Value Pack includes a pouch, strap, cloth, 32 megabyte Memory Stick, and D cable and will sell for 23,800 yen. The 1seg pack includes a 1seg tuner and stand, a pouch, strap, cloth, and a 1 gigabyte stick. It will sell for 29,800 yen.

The PS2 option is much simpler, with just one new color, Cinabar Red, in the standard 16,000 yen package.

Sony is scattering the releases a bit, pushing the PS2 out first on 7/3, with the PSP to follow two weeks later on 7/17. Both revisions are said to be limited, so those who want a unit should check with their favorite import shops in advance.

I have no intention to buy a new PSP anytime soon. I don't even use the one I have (Nathan does though).

I have the platinum PS2, no need to get a new one of those either.

FF CC, FF Dissida, and a few other games are making me thinking about getting one.

They do sound good. I'll probably pick them up and play them at some point. But I wouldn't buy a new PSP for them.

I won't be buying one for a while and by the time I want one I should be able to get them cheaply.
