You already know most of the details about the next PSP. But now we know its name: the PlayStation Vita.
Given that the next portable Playstation device is destined to land somewhere on the planet by the end of the year, it’s fairly expected that Sony would cut the price of the original PSP. The price drop landed today, cutting the RRP from $280 to $190.
It’s not just the PSP which will benefit from an update bringing along the Music Unlimited streaming service – the NGP and Xperia Play will also see the Qriocity-powered service at a later date. The cloud-based streaming service is already available on the PS3 and Bravia TVs, and it has six million songs to date. [Eurogamer via TrustedReviews]
Price cuts are pretty mundane in the gadget world, but a price jump? Strange – especially since Sony took the PSPGo down to $US150 only a week ago. Looks like they changed their minds, for whatever reason. Bummer. [PSP via SlashGear]
