Sony PSP Core in white now available

If you’re tired of being like everyone else and strolling down the street playing a rehashed PS2 title on your black Sony PlayStation Portable, you’ll be happy to hear that the iPod white-like version is now available to you, the North American consumer. Don’t start running to your closest Wal-Mart or Best Buy just yet, however, because you’ll still need to import the little white devil.

While the street price for the White PSP-1000 CW in Japan is a mere $175, because you live here in the not-so-privileged continent of North America, you’ll have to fork over $210 to the good people at Play-Asia to get your hands on one. It’s just the core unit, so you won’t get any of the special accessories and whatnot that come bundled in some value packs on the market.

It’s still not that bad of a deal, considering the standard issue black Sony PSP Core goes for $200 at most retailers, so you are only putting up a $10 premium to stand out from the crowd.
