Six colours available from day one

Sony Computer Entertainment Japan has announced that the updated PlayStation Portable will go on sale in the region on September 20.

The solid date comes following Sony's E3 confirmation that the redesigned handheld will launch worldwide in September. The PSP Slim will retail for JPY 19,800 and comes in six colours: Piano Black, Ceramic White, Ice Silver, Rose Pink, Lavender Purple and Felicia Blue.

The new model PSP is 33 per cent lighter and 19 per cent slimmer than the original design. A video-out port has been added to enable users to connect to their TV sets, and loading times have been improved. Following the launch of the console worldwide in September, Sony is promising a variety of different SKU's for each region. US consumer will be able to get their hands on a limited edition Daxter PSP Entertainment pack as well as a Star Wars branded model in October.

Entertainment Packs in North America will retail for USD 199.99, with standalone units selling for USD 169.99.

Am I the only one dissapointed with the redesign? I really hoped for new features, or at least for brighter screen like what Nintendo did with the ds lite...Nevertheless, I might get this upgrade just for the faster load times

brighter screen? i always thought the PSP had one of the best mobile displays out there

this is just a redesign afterall, not the PSP2

the psp is unplayable outdoors in the park, or anywhere the sunshines. I wanted a better lcd screen.

acc. to the hands on's that im reading, the screen on this is 'much' better than the original.

thats nothing to do with brightness, thats more do do with reflectiveness of the PSP outer casing and the reflectiveness of the LCD

they have called it the 'PSP 2000'...

dumbest name ever... sounds like its 7 years old

(slaps forehead) its not called PSP 2000, thats the model number, the first PSP was PSP-1000 model number

Update: Yes, PSP-2000 is the model number (as PSP-1000 was the original). However, it is being referred to by Reeves (check the link above) and in widely reported articles as the PSP-2000 like that's the name. It will still be officially known as the PSP, as Sony is not rebranding the unit to differentiate it in consumer's minds. So the choice of Sony executives, instead of giving it a sexy name, is referring to it as the PSP 2000.

its the model number...

Original PSP : - 1000 Jp ver. - 1001 US ver. - 1002 Aus ver. - 1003 UK ver. - 1004 EU ver. - 1005 Kor./Sg ver. - 1006 Hk ver

and to be fair, you did think it was gonna be called PSP 2000

does that mean that the XBox 360 is even more dumb cos we are waaaaay past 360AD

dont worry mooshy, i dont like it either, its just from the shiny exterior...thats why i play inside..or on road trips..never walking, its too hard to do that anyways

heres more insult to injury for psp fans.. Final fantasy fans look on and weep
