In regards to recent online reports/rumors of a “smaller, lighter” PSP being confirmed at Sony’s PSP in Education conference, SCEA’s Dave Karraker has said that the comments made by Sony’s UK managing director Ray Maguire were simply “general context” regarding the nature of consumer electronics, and no PSP redesign has been announced.
“We have not made any announcement regarding any new PSP hardware changes,” Karraker says.
Sony’s PSP in Education conference focused on using PSPs in mainstream education. Maguire told the education specialists that the PSP in its current form is merely the “first iteration,” and that, as with its previous consoles, a “smaller, lighter” system would be introduced in the future.
When questioned on the redesign, Maguire reportedly added that while the rest of the design might be altered, the PSP’s current screen size was “fixed,” but had no additional information regarding a date on which redesign might be released.
