New Playstation 2 Announced
I imagine this is coming at the rumored $99 price point, although the Japanese price equates to a higher US price.
Sony Computer Entertainment Japan (SCEJ), a division of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) responsible for business operations in Japan, today announced a newly designed PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system (SCPH-90000), which will become available in Japan on November 22nd, 2007 at a recommended retail price of 16,000 yen (including tax). The newly designed PlayStation 2 will come in three color variations of “Charcoal Black”, “Ceramic White” and “Satin Silver”. Vertical Stand for PlayStation 2 will also become available on November 22nd, 2007 in the same three colors at a recommended retail price of 1,500 yen (including tax). While inheriting the functions of the current PlayStation 2, the internal design architecture of the new system has been completely overhauled, resulting lighter in weight. The newly designed PlayStation 2 will have a built-in AC adapter, further improving users’ convenience to enjoy various entertainment contents anywhere at home. In the 8th year from its launch in 2000, PlayStation 2 continues to be strongly supported by a wide demographic of users around the world. Reaching the remarkable milestone of 120 millionth sales in shorter period than the original PlayStation did, the world of PlayStation 2 further expands as more new and attractive software titles are to be released this coming holiday season and beyond. With the newly designed PlayStation 2, together with the lineup of forthcoming new game titles, SCEJ will continue to expand the market and create a new world of computer entertainment. The new model of PS2 will be the same price as the existing model and will be available in the SCEE territories in early 2008. Specific launch dates to be announced at a future date. Looks the same as the current slim version, although the build in AC seems kinda cool. |
Looks cool. My current PS2 still works (amazingly).

Is there still a market for these?

Does anyone at Sony, presently, know how to run a company?
Instead of making the current system be the best it can be, they are revamping a last gen system and that system still outsells your current offering? :hscratch: |

My black behemoth still works too...but I've been thinking about getting another controller, and this would look lovely on top of my media center next to my Wii...

New games are coming out for it? It would be nice if they focused on making PS3 games. They'll probably start getting some great PS3 games out when the new Xbox is released.
