Forums - Sony - Something fishy going on with PSP covers - PSP-4000 related?

I hope there is a PSP 4000. That way they mark the PSP 3000 down in price so I can get one.



Ask stefl1504 for a sig, even if you don't need one.

if the 4000 is commin..it wont be mentioned till around Xmas or early next year...ppl are iffy about the GO now...i doubt they'll release a 4000 revision and take any chance of the GO sellin away



Even so 4k, will probably be a small update from 3k... so IMO this is more an image change then enything else

I don't think they will reveal it before GO launch, though...

That's honestly why I was questioning whether they would or wouldn't reveal it at TGS. They've announced new hardware at 2 different events so far this year but then again, it might take away from PSP Go sales. Of course if the PSP-4000 is a cheaper model and the PSPGo is more for people who want a digital system then I could see both doing decent on the market...I dunno. It's a 50/50 chance of it getting announced there imo.

 

They won't reveal it at TGS - it would endanger GO sales. Even though it's 2 months before the JP launch, PSP Go models are already at the top of the Amazon.co.jp chart -  http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/bestsellers/videogames/ref=pd_dp_ts_vg_1

 

Now that never happened with PSP-3000, in fact I think it was only once in the top 20...for a day. I suspect (just like PS3 Slim), PSP-4000 will be built in 45nm, and cheaper. Announcing it before the PSP GO launch would be hugely detrimental IMO.



Interesting, I think it is just a brand wide rebrading, and annoyin!

It is odd that it isnt changed on the GT, but Im still thinking that its just part of the PlayStation rebranding, it does look more in line with the new PS3 covers.

No, axumblade, Japan is the only territory that isn't getting any PSP GO freebie. Which makes the apparent high interest in PSP GO even stranger.



Well, it's sort of a freebie. From what I understand, Japan gets sweet FA.

lol. I don't consider Rock Band Unplugged Lite a freebie. It's a demo imo. x.o

To be fair, it is more than a demo, because you can download more songs for it, so Lite is the right word, but it still sucks in comparison to GT

 

May I also point out that it comes out a month later in JP, so this is odd, maybe they are selling it cheaply?

No, it's 27,000 Yen.
