Sony is giving its handheld console a serious refresh in the form of a slimmer, lighter and faster "updated" PSP.
The new unit still includes the 4.3-inch LCD and UMD, but is 33 percent lighter, 19 percent slimmer, has sped up game load times and improved battery life.
The only real "new" features is a video output capability to allow you to play your PSP games on a big screen TV.
You can score one in September in the original Piano Black, a new Ice Silver color, and a Star Wars Battlefront special edition.
The latter two PSPs come in $199 bundles with related games and a 1GB Memory Stick in the case of Ice Silver. More pics after the break. The system will also come in two new colors which are also part of two new packs. First is the Ice Silver, part of the $199.99 Entertainment Pack that comes with a 1GB Memory Stick, Daxter, and the Family Guy Frickin' Sweet Collection on UMD. Also is a new, white Star Wars-themed PSP that will retail in October for $199.99 packed with Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron. These release plans are for North America, announcements for Japan and Europe are forthcoming.
