Ding ding ding d!ng……

Sony’s releasing a red-colored PS2 in Japan on July 3. It’s gonna cost you ¥16,000, or around $150, for the eight-year-old game console.

Nowhere is it suggested that this model of the PS2 will be released here in the U.S. :-(

And yes, in lieu of a PS3, I still have a PS2 connected to my TV, thank you very much.

  • Sony has officially gone bat-shit crazy. Why the hell are they making a re-release of an OLD console?!??!?!?!!2121!WTH@232!@ g,kmrvm1!#@!!!@23!#2r v3r4342u392833894!@!!@!?!?!@!?

    • Because it still frequently outsells the current generation of consoles.

      I love the PS2, its a fantastic piece of hardware. Considering how well it still sells, I think it makes sense for them to have a little fun with it and switch things up a bit from time to time.

      And this is just my opinion, but I think it looks pretty sharp.
