Just because Sony thinks DS owners grow up to buy PSPs doesn't mean they won't be trying to bag the market of non-grownup girls. For that, Sony not only gave Hannah Montana a place in the PSP, but Disney's new pop princess will also come bundled with a lilac-purple PSP.

So in addition to Piano Black, Vibrant Blue, Mystic Silver, Pearl White, and Radiant Red, the PSP-3000 gets a feminine touch of lilac-purple. SCEE bundles this new color along with Hannah Montana: Rock Out The Show.

"As girls spend as much time listening to music, taking and editing photos, watching movies, chatting with Skype, surfing the net and playing games with their friends as boys do," says Isabelle Tomatis, European Marketing Manager, SCEE, "we thought it was about time that they had their own colour of PSP and we've styled this one up just for them."

The color looks better then the GOW red one. What were they thinking not making it metallic?

Does this mean we get to see more fenimine games? Because if Sony plans to open up this market they sure as hell may be consistent with it, otherwise you can expect a crowd of angry fangirls =)

I think it's a nice color. It looks better than the red one they had with GOW.

As long as it doesn't have an imprint of Hannah Montana on the back then it's cool by me.

Lilac is pretty unballer. If it was straight purple or a violet I'd get it.

i expected a bunch of people hateing on this but i guess everyone seems to like it. if my doughter was a little older i would be getting this for her for her birthday other than a gbsp but shes only 5. if this gets a print on the back the ff7 psp better!

 » Yeah I know lol

I surfed around and found out they released it much earlier. A bit depressed they didn't bother checking the actual site, even though it's in French, anyone can interpret it.

Anyways, it might be easier to message them or something, since sticking this memo here is a tad pointless.

On the back, the PSP logo has been replaced with a Hannah Montana logo and the coldboot screen has been replaced with the opening credits to Hannah Montana. Too bad. Freaking Sony just has to be the ladies' man right? This thing is trash, it's just like the Hello Kitty pandemic. Here's a better idea, instead of buying yet another crappy-colored PSP unit and blowing more because it's a promo for Hannah Montana, how about buying a cheaper Piano Black PSP, the color it is supposed to be, and just change your XMB color to a purple instead! OMG!

You can buy a good full replacement cover kit for less than $20 and i bet within few days you'll find same colour but without a big Hannah Montana logo stuck on the back.

No thanks. I dont need celebrities.

@zolmg,
