The new price for the PSP in Europe is €129.99 ($187). This 24 percent price drop follows that of North America’s recent discount down to $129, from $169. Both price drops set the stage for the release of Sony’s new portable later this year, the NGP.
“The console’s new recommended retail price, complemented by a whole host of affordable games in the Essentials, Platinum and minis collections, opens up a world of portable gaming for less — particularly for our younger audiences,” said Sony Computer Entertainment Europe’s hardware and platforms marketing manager Isabelle Tomatis.
That’s code for ‘get these things out of here fast.’ Good luck on that, Sony. With the 67 million you’ve already sold, I think you’re about done. Plus, people need to save money for this NGP. It’s going to be expensive, isn’t it?
