Sony Releasing Candy Blue Dualshock 3, Dual Charger Unit

Posted Mar 01, 2011 at 19:09, By Anoop Gantayat

Sony announced a couple of first party PlayStation 3 peripherals today.

First up is a new Dualshock 3 color. The PS3's standard controller will soon be available in "Candy Blue." This will be priced at the standard ¥5,500 Dualshock 3 going price.

The other item is the "Dualshock 3 Charging Stand." This stand can hold two Dualshock 3 or Sixaxis controllers. The ¥2,480 set includes the stand itself, an AC adapter, a power cord, and two charging attachments. The attachments are required for connecting the Dualshock 3 to the charging stand, but they can be kept permanently attached to the controller.

Both items will be released on April 21.

That's sexy looking.

Oh, I thought it was actually candy.

The recharging station would be nice if it comes out stateside and if the price is right.  I try to go with first party if possible.

The charging station is a retarded purchase considering all you need are 2 USB slots and 2 miniUSB cables, especially at its price of 'round $20. I charge my controllers with my PC :P

Sexy controller though.

is it too much to ask for a charging station that can handle a dualshock, a move, and a nav?

According to Kotaku there's no word on a western release yet.  Tho i really would like the candy-blue to come to NA, it looks really nice and better than the current blue DS3 IMO.
