Different Colors For The PSP - Would they matter?

July 02, 2009 in News comments 7

PS3Addiction.com asks the question 'Would more colors for the PSP matter in the United States?' and offers a brief glimpse of a gamers perspective on the subject.

"My husband owns a red PSP, and I play Lumines quite often, but I have yet to purchase one of my own" says the 25 year old gamer. When asked why she hasn't bought one of her own, she responded "I saw the Hannah Montana bundle with the pink PSP and I though I'm not interested in the game, the system is a bit more 'me'. I just hope that the PSP GO! has the same color options" she stated.

    Seriously? Her decision would be swayed by the colour of the handheld? It's going to be the same games whether the PSP if black, pink or made out of solid gold. Shouldn't the games be the deciding factor?

    Having a choice of colours is nice, but I just don't understand why people are encouraged to buy a system they wouldn't consider otherwise just because it's a different colour when the console itself hasn't actually changed.

      I think anyone would take a solid gold anything regardless of the quality of games on it.

    It really shouldn't matter, but honestly it does for some odd reason. Some colors are just more inviting than others. It's a subconscious thing. Black, while easy to match electronics with, and sleek, often seems standoffish and too formal, technical, and uptight.

    Whereas colors like red, blue, pink, silver, and others tend to be more inviting. Then it's just up to the consumer themselves.

    In that picture, man that blue PSP looks rather nice! I definitely wouldn't mind having a blue PSP (PSPGo, since that's the next one I'm getting . . . once the price drops by $100)!

    I bought a Mint Green colour in Japan, and it's actually quite nice looking and good for a change. Especially here in Australia, where the pool of colours is so limited, it's good to have that ability to choose an appealing colour.

    Of course, I don't use that PSP because it refuses to play any copy of Crisis Core, but I didn't know that at the time.
