Sony Japan release an official PSP Theme maker - Image 1Japan's official PlayStation site has just updated with a new downloadable that those who have a sweet tooth for custom themes for the PSP may want to hear about. It's an official release of Sony's very own theme maker for handhelds running on their official firmware.

While details are still sketchy at this point (it's all in Japanese), a quick scan of this new application's PDF manual reveals some interesting details. For example, we've spotted screenshots for what appears to be a custom icon editor (complete with step-by-step instructions). The app also carries its own theme converters, although once again, we can't verify this until we can pick up a more proper translation.

Guys interested in downloading a copy of this new tool can access it via Sony Japan's official site by clicking the Read link below. We'll let you know in case we hear news of a North American release for Sony's official Theme maker for the PSP. In the meantime, we'd really appreciate it if the more Nihonggo-literate readers could drop by and offer translations. We're sure the rest of the PSP community will be thankful as well.

We extend our thanks to Hatter for informing us of this new release.

A few days ago, Sony moved both the PSP 1000 and PSP 2000's (aka PSP Slilm) firmware up to version 3.70. The update included a new feature that allows users to tinker with their handheld's themes (without having to resort to homebrew apps, that is). The company's following up this major news by letting PSP owners in the UK know that 10 themes are now available for download to their system.

The list consists mostly of themes based on games you guys may have played - the Cookie theme's reportedly been pre-installed in some PSPs :
  • Wipeout theme for the PlayStation Portable - Image 1Cookies
  • Classy Pink
  • Lemmings
  • WipEout
  • Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice - 1
  • Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice - 2
  • Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice - 3
  • Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice - 4
  • Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice - 5
  • Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice - 6
For the guys interested in customizing their themes with this batch, the download links are available over at Sony UK's official site via the read link. Don't worry - we've tested the links, and these themes appear to be free. Also keep on the lookout for any new themes that are expected to come out in the near future.

We thank Sev1512 for tipping us off regarding this news bit.

For those with an inkling to start the week off with a new look for their PSPs, we have something for you. We've just picked up another trio of XMB themes for the day, and should be available for your downloading pleasure (Details in the file readmes):


BMD XMB Theme - Image 1

BMD XMB Theme, by johnce564623
This XMB theme set is reportedly the author's 3rd work, and features some easy-to-spot black icons. But while they're visually appealing, we have to ask - what's with the Stan marsh icon (on the right)? This release currently has a completed set of topmenus and submenus.

Xbox 360 XMB Theme - Image 1  

Xbox 360 XMB Theme, by The Random
As its name implies, this XMB Theme is based on the Xbox 360's interface. Aside from tweaking the visual aspect to the theme (icons, volume bar, font), The Random has also added in appropriate audio cues to make the theme all the more convincing. Take note that this XMB theme is noted to work on custom firmwares 3.30 and 3.40 only.
