And finally, you can make your dreams come true of splashing some variety on your PSP with these all new skins! If you're in Japan, that is.

We've got official word that Sony's handheld will soon be coming in three more colors to suit their clientele's varied tastes. That would be you guys. Anyway, the colors set to be released are pink, silver, and metallic blue. Now you won't have to stick to that classic black anymore. But regardless, what matters is that you've got your PSP to keep you company at any time of any given day. The colors are just a bonus.

Still, we're sure you'd want to know when they'd be out and for how much, so here goes. All three models are tagged at ¥ 20,790 (US$ 180). But while they are priced the same, they have different release dates. The metallic blue model (PSP-1000 MB) is set to come out this December 21st, while the silver PSP (PSP-1000 SV) is coming out on December 14th, and the Pink PSP (PSP-1000 PK) will be heading your way this November 22nd.

So, which are you gonna go for? Check out the images below and then decide. Have fun!

who cares about color if it is not downgradable to 2.71SE ??

Blue looks the best. But the silver ain't bad. Would have been cooler if it was chrome though. Why don't they ever make any mirror finish consoles?

I totally agree, that blue surprised me! Definitely looks the best!

Just buy the one with the colour you want, switch cases, and sell your old one!

still think black is the best for the psp, the black makes it look a lot more pro, instead of some toy

 » why the hell would u want blue???

1. the blue psp is ugly
2. the pink psp is ugly
3. the grey psp would be good if u get a ps3
4. and the black psp's we have already r good cuz it's the same color as the ps2 which is still popular

Hm. Blue looks the best, although as above stated, whats the point if its running FW 2.82 or something?

 » Blue

I've always wanted a blue one. I might import one if they don't bring them to the US. If I do get a blue one though, I'll just sell my v2.82 PSP. I will never get rid of my v2.71 SE though. :)

 » Their Ugly And Look like Toys

Read the subject, before juding me as any kind of fanboy, i would like to say i got 16 different consles, different companies obviously

 » toys...

hmm if i am correct... a psp is for games primarily... and to me games... are... toys. with the capacity of current memory sticks music is just a waste of space and videos definitely a waste of space.

no offense but... if u wanted music or videos u should have got an ipod instead of a psp.

   Re: MiNuN (Unregistered) - 2006-11-02
 » Difference

I do have an Ipod, im subbing it for an xbox portable +P, but i ment when i said they look like toys, it looks like cheap plastic, and when u look at game consles u see metal or something appealing. I disagree, with the psp direction i think it's game "primarily" is on the low. The Games On PSP Is DISSAPOINTING

 » omfg!!!!!!

why in the world does japan get all the sweet colors!?!?! we(ppl in USA) only get black... europe get pink and black... why dont we get nothin sweet? i have not seen any exclusive psp colors for ppl in the US even tho we buy the most of them. i dont think it is fair if they only get released in japan.

i understand that the psp doesnt do well and they give special colors as a gimmick to get more sales... but if there were colors like those in US i would have bought a new psp a looooong time ago.

to sony and japan... I HATE YOU!!! but i love my sony products that i currently own.

XCM ones look cool. only 9.99

   Re: yoshinatsu - 2006-11-01
 » Well...

I already knew that BUT
1st: You need to open your PSP, thus destroying your warranty.
2nd: You may end up with a broken PSP, if you don't know how to do it. (For example, I would never open my PSP myself cause I'm sure I would end up breaking it or something.)
And 3rd and most important: You can only change the faceplate and the buttons, not the back and that SUCKS.

 » dont buy a non sony faceplate

unless its a real good one, cos the plastic thyere made of can be terrible and scratch and thats all your money gone. dont worry people, the faceplates will be up on ebay when these psp's are released, someone will strip these down and sell the parts.

i still like my ceramic white psp more than those. Anyone who buys one wouldn't be able to use homebrew. the blue one is decent.
