Carnival PSP Colors in Japan
Sony Japan's latest batch of PSP colors was apparently inspired by the feelings one gets at a carnival. Set for March release in the Nippon is the new Carnival Color series of PSP-3000 systems, offering players a gaudy array of colors to make sure people can recognize them as a PSP owner from a mile away.
The series consists of four colors: Vibrant Blue, Radiant Red, Bright Yellow, and Spirited Green. As you can see in our media section, the adjectives are pretty spot on. These could be some of the brightest system colors ever (excluding special Nintendo systems with the word Pikachu in the name, of course).
Blue and Red will arrive on March 5, with Yellow and Green following two weeks later on March 19.
As usual for Japanese PSP hardware, buyers will be able to select from a standalone unit or a Value Pack. The standalone unit, costing 19,800 yen, includes the system, an AC adapter, and a 1200mAh battery pack. The Value Pack, priced at 24,800 yen, adds in a 4 GB Memory Stick Pro Duo (Mark 2), a matching pouch, a strap, and a cloth. Sony says the Value Pack is a limited edition item.
Those who want to make sure they have accessories to match the new system needn't worry. Coinciding with the various hardware releases, Sony will make available 2200mAh battery packs with like-colored shells at 5,500 yen. The special colored pouches from the Value Packs will also be sold separately, at 1,800 yen each.
Sony and Koei are teaming up to give players an early shot at getting the new hardware. The Japanese release of Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce will be accompanied by a hardware bundle combining the new Radiant Red system with a copy of the game and an original soft case. Pricing for the bundle is set at 24,840 yen, or about the same price as one of the Radiant Red Value Packs. As with Strikeforce, the bundle will be released on February 26, meaning buyers will get to show off their exclusive PSP color for a full week.
These colors and the Strikeforce hardware bundle are currently Japan only items. We'll of course let you know if Sony decides to bring some carnival cheer our way.
