Only Real Men Play with Pink PSPs

Pink 003


Pink is the color of universal love. Emotional love of self and others, friendship, affection, harmony and inner peace. And the latest addition to the PSP's color palette is love indeed.

Available (for the moment) only in Europe for €229 and £169, it comes bundled with Pink's UMD video that include her music videos for Stupid Girls, Who Knew, U + Ur Hand, and Crash and Burn (as well as an interview with the pop artist) , carrying pouch, wrist strap, 32MB Memory Stick Duo, white headphones and remote control to compliment.

Recently, PlaystationPortable.de got their hands on this adorable handheld, and here are some of the lovely photographs. Notice the PSP camera on top? It's like icing on top of cake isn't it? Strawberry Short Cake that is.

For those guys that have that a special someone in their lives that aren't exactly into gaming, this would be a good gift for her. A homage to the "matching shirts" perhaps? Black PSP for you and a pink one for her? Lovely.

QJ is not turning you hardcore gamers into sissies, but keep in mind that only real men can pull off a dizzying pink PSP.

i think what's making it look cheap is the color mismatch of grey on pink. where are the white decals?



if sony decided to switch the PSP decal colors, it would look much sexier.

Clearly you have some sort of deep rooted homosexual fettish. TRY to keep your opinions to yourself, and remember that a lot of people who read this site are YOUNG AND IMPRESSIONABLE.

It's hilarious how so many people seem to take this as a challenge to their masculinity..



Guys, it's only a games console, anyone can play it, regardless of gender, religion, sexual orientation, etc. etc..



There's nothing wrong with being gay. If you have a problem with it, YOU'RE the one with the issues. YOU'RE the one who needs help.



I'll be buying one of these for my girlfriend, she's been hoping for this for ages!

Guys should like pink. Think about. The best stuff on a female's body is pink. So this pink PSP can remind you of "gettin some". hehe

nothings wrong with pink color.nintendo has alot of variety of colors. ...................................................... i wish they would also release a neon green or neon purple(that also glows in the dark).

I don't have any girlfriend to give this lovely Pink PSP for her but I wish I can give this to Jessica Alba, cuz she's hot! For the camera, I can video chat with mic on headset and talks about our personal!

Some of you guys are silly!



I will buy it for my girlfriend, blah blah blah..stop being fake and being man is nothing wrong with buy it for yourself. STOP BE FAKE AND BE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!



Real men buy it for themselves to excite by it's beauty color of pink. It is not sissies! Some of you guys think it is sissies then you better think twice. You are not macho, man! This is cool and flash color and it is fun. Come on, men or else!

» Dunno though.....

Naa man. I dont mind pink, i kinda like it I bought a Pink gameboy advance which was great, then i had the silver SP and then i bought the Pink SP when it came out which was a very cool colour. But....im not too sure about this though, it suits a DS, but makes the PSP look too Toy like. That pink is a bit too bright..

by Tooplex - 2006-08-23 11:37

Sportacus i thought you would like pink after all you hang around with stepanie ^^

by Annonymous Coward - 2006-08-23 11:43
» Whatever!!

Real Man, wimp or gf less idiot, the fact of the matter is that this colour sucks. I won't be buying it ever and besides I already have 1 white Psp and 1 black.

» security

usually the ones that tease "gay" or "homosexual" or "real mean don't.." are the ones that are insecure and most likely "gay" themselves.



but to just opine on the color itself? yes, pink is not a color i'd like for a PSP.

by Sephiroth1089 - 2006-08-23 12:06
» Megapixel of camera?

wow i wished they woulda told us how many megapixels the camera is. the gps does look weird i wouldnt want one but the camera if its 3megapixel or up i would get one.. uh i dont think the pink is soo bad. (yes i'm a guy) uh i still perfer the black one over the white or pink but i think it looks fine. i wish the button woulda had a backlight to them so they glow or something. that woulda been cool.

by Flamekebab - 2006-08-23 12:17
» Not so sure on the shade

The pink looks a little garish to me, but my girlfriend seems to like it, so I don't care that much!



I hope they introduce other colours, although more tastefully done!

by Wii60_Lover - 2006-08-23 12:35
» ***** = bundle of sticks.

Pink is cool, but the PSP should have been a lighter pink. It's a little too pink and it looks tacky/cheap.

Hey Anna S. might be hot. I wonder why they don't show their pics to guest members. You never know if they have hot girls working for them then more people might buy a premium membership.



I say mmmmm to hot girls.

» to post #5

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ..... i gotta agree with everything you said there. that post friggen made my day



i'm not for pink myself. as i see it, girls that wear pink are usually hot. i'd rather keep it just them that wear it n stuff xD



and as for what a "real man" is, i say it's in the eye of the beholder.

by GameLordOmega - 2006-08-23 14:31
» hmmm...

just thought of something. a pink psp could bring a couple together, although it would be a pretty screwed up relationship if it was just based off of having a psp.



say you (a guy) are playing the psp in public, and you see a hot chick with a pink psp. this automatically shows she's cool, because gamer chicks are ALWAYS cool (to me at least xD) it also shows that you two have something in common, liking psp. then, chances are, she doesn't know a thing about hacking because the pink psp is new and probably has 2.8 with a bunch of security and stuff. well, that's one way to impress her, is if they release a downgrader for 2.8, you could tell her you could help her with this problem, but you'll need her number *CHA-CHING!* and aim or something in order to send her a link and stuff. then, show off your "1337 h4xx0rz sk!llz" and hope for a good ending



sounds pretty lame, but eh. that IS one of the positive things about pink psp's

» You PSPU editors keep getting dumber and dumber

Red is the color of love. Harmony is the color green. Friendship is the color white. Affection is actually the color pink. And Peace is also the color green. Anna S., you're a blithering idiot.

why keep reporting on this pink PSP, but not give a mention about that GPS in that pic? i think thats much more interesting news.

If i had to buy my gf a psp it would be the white one, now that looks sexy.

by Azam - 2006-08-24 00:16

White PSPs are okay. Pink is terrible. Black, the original PSP colour, still is simply the best. Black just suits the PSP. Instead of pink, Sony should have released a Silver PSP. Let the Nintendo make its DS and Gameboys pink.

A silver PSP?

EWW.



Lets have some interesting colours! Red, green, purple, blue!

Pink is at least a step in the right direction.



Faceplates don't cut it, as they don't cover the whole PSP, just the front, that's not enough for me!

» Hear my amazing advice

#1 , cutting yourself is not a good solution for your depression , listen a music to relax.

#5 , pink is not a womens color , pink is just a color like every other color , color doesn't define a person , I think you're gay actually

#8 , actually we men and women follow each other , none of us is really predominat in dominance

#38 , gamer girls anre't usually hot

#46 , Girls don't suck , are you chauvinist or have mental problems? gay people may be normal but people who discriminate against other genders aren't normal

#57 , and you wasted 30 seconds more writing that comment and you get no time refund
