Sony Massively Reduces PSP Price!
23/04/07
The price-cutting starts here. We’ve all been waiting for Sony to slash the price of the PS3 to boost flagging sales but then it pulls a fast one and knocks £50 off the retail price of the PSP instead. It should be noted however, that the PSP is still being outsold by the cheaper Nintendo DS so this price cut is long overdue. Still, the new £130 tag keeps £50 in your pocket and that’s all good.
The move comes as Sony launched five new Platinum tiles: Ridge Racer 2, Tekken, Killzone, Loco Roco, and Moto GP at £15 a pop. Here’s what SCE UK managing director Ray Maguire, said:
“PSP is unique and is constantly evolving. It offers the widest palette of mobile entertainment, from gaming to video, music, photos and internet,” said SCE UK managing director Ray Maguire. “But now the exciting possibility of connecting remotely to PS3 makes PSP more relevant than ever. So what better time to offer a brand new price point, and the launch of five new Platinum titles?”
The new prices kick in on May 4th!
