Sony ships Pretty-in-Pink PSP packs to Europe in November

pink psp


It seems that SCEE wants Europeans to see only pink in November. Pink PSPs, that is. The new Pink PSP may have made quite a few PSP fanboys blush. But Europeans don't seem to mind the console's coming out (so to speak) with a color associated with poodles. After all, you know how more relaxed Europeans are about gender-bending than, say, the good people of Peoria. Can you imagine David Bowie in Peoria?

To make the Pink edition of the PSP even more eye-catching, Sony is offering three special pink pack-ins. Color-blind PSP fans can choose Loco Roco, Daxter or P!ink to go with their handheld. The Pink PSP will be available in Europe before the end of November. If you want to see more pics of the the feminine side of your macho in black PSP, you can view them here.

WTF, who would buy this when you could just get a new faceplate?
by - 2006-10-22 11:17:52

Because people aren't born with PSPs.

it seems to be that sony is *****ting on the americans cause all other countries get the different color psp's
by - 2006-10-22 11:53:57
Buy Em Both

If the white and pink psp ever come out in America Il buy em both just to look at anyone who oposes pink simply becase it's percieved to be a feminine color has secrets of their own
by - 2006-10-22 12:32:09
this is awsome

but the shade of pink is too dark maybe if it was a lighter version of pink then it would teh pw3n

The lolz

So if you oppose against a kick in the nads,means you sort of like it?.
by - 2006-10-22 12:52:35
Your opinion sucks

'Cause you are GAY
by - 2006-10-22 13:00:38
Wrong

Faceplates are fulgy,the external ones make the psp heavier and bulky also you cant use the shoulder buttons. The install of the other kind of faceplates needs you to open your PSP and kill the guarantee. My 3ng1I5h 0wn5

Stupid americans.

Idiots, european are more "gender bender" than americans? I guess that comes from a guy who's been watching too many teen movies about europe and gotten a totally wrong impression. Real men like this colour? Of course not, it's ment from girls. I've seen the ad to this Pink PSP hanging in windows, in girl fashion clothing stores. So obviously it's not ment men. Kinda wierd how so few draw the conclution to that it's supposed to be for girls. It's ment to make the marked for both sex(aka: a bigger selling marked) for the PSP.
by - 2006-10-22 13:28:47
allright!!!

yeah big woop!! what a waist of time. damn psp should be waisting thier time making something good other than painting a psp pink.. living proof sony is ran by gays.. i want a blue one!! or one with flames around the psp logo on the back.
by - 2006-10-22 13:38:11
Pink PSP

Looks nice. I wouldn't use it, but honestly it is pleasing to the eye. Maybe it will attract more of a female crowd to the PSP scene.
by - 2006-10-22 13:51:22
No Bull S

People know this is a Sony strategy to get the attention of the female market 'cause you know females are more than the 50% of the world population(YAY). But they are using it to call European people well .....you obiously know,because they are jerks by the way you type like a f@g.

pink = gay = bad ?

wow. I have to say it's pretty sad that a word that used to mean happy now refers to something that sucks. reading these comments makes me almost happy to be gay, that is to say that it makes me happy that I'm not one of you ignorant pricks that feels it nessesary to ***** on anything that isn't 'Macho' ... Oh no! Hurry up guys, wrestling is about to start! that being said... I wouldn't buy a pink PSP ... I think black looks the sleekest of the available stock colors, but I DO know several people (mostly women) who DO like the color, and at least one who would buy it simply because it plays music, and is pink. But man, do I ever wish I was as manly as you guys.
by - 2006-10-22 18:10:38
pinks ok...

Im a girl, i like pink but to me the pictures of the pink psp look plasticy and cheap, so ill continue saving up for the pretty sleek black psp! ;)
by - 2006-10-22 18:15:56
HOT

pink psp is insane, crazy japanese people of sony u did good=], now u jus hav to support homebrew!>=]
by - 2006-10-22 18:17:35

You think sony, would give us what we would want, like a metalic silver,ble or green. instead they give you the worst of all
by - 2006-10-22 19:05:37
you guys are racist

all u guys that are saying that the pink psp is ugly r racist. what do you guys have against black people?
by - 2006-10-22 19:49:27

"It seems that SCEE wants Europeans to see only pink in November." Quite possibly the best line I've read in any article here ever.
by - 2006-10-23 01:29:39

by Beansta - 2006-10-23 08:32:55

women actually take up 52% of the worlds population so it could be a smart move by sony. on the otherhand ive already got 2 black ones, so y the f**k do i need a gay pink one!!!

Pink already in Portugal

I don't know about other european countries but here in Portugal there are already Pink PSPs available, I know I live here and I saw them in Lisbon.
by - 2006-10-23 11:37:29
black and pink

I didn't read all the comments but, they said they think the pink PSP is ugly (wich is, there is a better tone for pink and maybe even with it it would be ugly, the design doesn't match the color), now what does that have to do with being against black ppl /Confused ????
by - 2006-10-23 11:44:09
guess so lol

maybe if hes a masoquist
by - 2006-10-23 11:46:24
Portugal

It has been selling for months here in portugal at least 2 maybe 1, I've already seen it in lisbon, and yeah it's ugly as it looks.
