Pink PS2 coming 8th November
Sony Computer Entertainment Europe today announced the expansion of the PlayStation 2 line-up with the introduction of a new colour. The new, limited edition Pink PlayStation 2 will be available from selected retailers throughout from 8th November 2006 and will come complete with a pair of pink DualShock 2s and a pink Memory Card. The PlayStation 3 is due for launch a week later.
Following the increasingly widespread appeal of PlayStation 2, through the popularity of socially interactive games such as Buzz and SingStar, Sony says the decision to produce a pnk console reflects the growing and diverse demographic that PlayStation 2 has developed.
"PlayStation 2 is the accessible, affordable way to enjoy new social, communal and interactive entertainment experiences, through software titles like SingStar, Buzz and EyeToy," says Dan Hill, PlayStation 2 European Brand Manager. "The pink PlayStation 2 is funky, fresh, and fashionable, and will further broaden the console's continuing popularity and relevance with a fun new twist."
The new pink PlayStation 2 will make its debut this week at Games Convention, Leipzig, Germany.
