Sony Reveals New Colors For PSP and PS3

Today at Sony's pre-TGS 2011 presser, the company revealed some upcoming palette swaps for its core hardware. The fresh set of colors comes shortly after the price of the PSP was dropped to $99 [Update: for a wifi-free version only in Europe], and the PS3 to $249.

The PSP can be seen in the media gallery below in a stylish black/red combination. The two new PS3 colors are red and blue. Keep in mind that these announcements were made in Japan, so we've got to assume that the fun new colors only apply to that country for now. We'll keep you updated as we learn more.

  • The red and black one looks way nicer than the original.
  • I still wish that they had the Metal Gear Solid 4 gunmetal grey PS3s because those looked quite cool from what I remember.
  • Very nice,but I'm more interested in the Ps3.

  • ive always wanted a white ps3

  • The PSP is only 99 in Europe for that special WiFi-less version. Unless there was something in the conference I didn't see. These should be the regular priced, fully featured PSPs.
  • Of course, like always the new colors won't come stateside. Japan knows what a monotone people we are, with our monotone colored games and all.

  • looks alot better than my silver slim one but since i have 1 i don't need another idk why anyone would really get it with vita otw too specialy if they accualy have as many games otw for it as they claim

  • sony should of just used thier time to make the vita instead of this red psp and the wireless psp since their both piontless but they probly did it cuz they said a long time bak that the 2 systems wil co-exist and the vita wouldnt mean the end of the psp
  • I have a silver PSP 3000 I'm good.On the other hand a red PS3 I can dig you fell me it would really give off a Kratos vibe.Only prob I already have a 120GB slim and paid 215 bucks for it and its probably only going to be in Japan but its chill I need to save my money for the holiday season.

  • They need to stop worrying about making a PSP every color under the sun and start dropping their game prices to correspond with the hardware, nobody is going to pay $40.00 for a fresh game with PSOne graphics.

  • Hurray for dead technology!

  • awesome ^^

  • god **BRAAAHHHH**, I just bought a new PS3 last week, and I could have had a blue one, it makes me sad :(


    EDIT: oh so I finally found out what swear makes the BRAAAAAAAAAAH haha, maybey I'll just use that from now on.
  • i don't know. i don't think ill ever be getting a psp, no matter how low the price drops.

  • i've always wanted a white ps3 like the ps one was colored,not that grey from the first released playstation,but the ps one slim.i always loved that one,it was beautiful.
  • Paying $100.00 for something that is about to go obsolete is madness.

  • Must resist Red Vs. BLue joke. Must resist Red vs. Blue joke!

  • Red and black suits the PSP nicley.

  • Ooooh. I like. Hope it applys here too. :)

  • what happened to the skeletal fad, i wouldnt mind a skeletal ps3 or controllers.  is it that hard to get different colors in the states.
