As is always the case in Sony-related gadgetry, home market Japan will be getting a few tweaked favourites soon.

The PSP will now come in hot red, to coincide with its new svelte shape, thanks to the recently introduced Slim & Lite version of the handheld. The Deep Red PSP will come in two bundles, a Value Pack and a Seg Pack, the latter sporting a TV tuner and stand. There’s no point telling you how much they cost because you’ll just cry. OK, around £95 and £125.

The PS2 has also gotten a revamp with a new, lighter version that manages to lose the power brick thanks to an integrated power source. It’s the same size as the PS2 Slim and will cost the same too when it lands on November 22. The good news is that it will arrive over here in the New Year.

But what about the sexy, slut-red PSP? Don’t hold your breath. If you’re an optimist, there’s always hope, the power of prayer and animal sacrifice. Jump for another photo.-Martin Lynch
