PSP Carnival Colors Announced

First there was the white PS3, now PSP owners in America have something to be jealous about. Sony has announced that it will release four new color variations of the PSP 3000 in Japan in March. The colors are Vibrant Blue, Radiant Red, Bright Yellow, and Spirited Green. The Red and Blue PSP models will appear on March 5th, while those looking to grab the yellow or geen variant will have to wait until March 19th. Each of the four new PSP colors will cost ¥19,800 ($222 USD) for the core pack, and ¥24,800 ($270 USD) for a "value" bundle. The more expensive value pack will include a 4GB Memory stick Pro Duo, a hand strap and a matching colored protective case.

Right now there is no suggestion that Sony is planning to release these colors in North America or Europe. That news has us particularly bummed, because the new yellow PSP (pictured below) is a thing of beauty.
