News of the pink PSP comes courtesy of an apparently premature official Sony press release, since pulled from the company’s website. The limited edition PSP bundle, released in collaboration with everyone’s favourite perky popstress P!nk, contains the pink PSP, white headphones with remote control, pouch, wrist strap and a 32MB Memory Stick Duo.

Set for release on October 27 in Europe only, the P!nk PSP Value Pack will cost €229 ($294), or £169 (approx. $319). Anyone picking up the pack will gain access to exclusive P!nk-related downloads, courtesy of Sony’s YourPSP.com service.

If it’s justification you want, then Sony’s Stephane Hareau, PSP senior brand manager, noted that “Our collaboration with P!nk will reflect the shared values between the artist, PlayStation and all the young women with freedom, confidence and attitude. The exclusive and exciting P!nk content made available in this Limited Edition will let young women discover the entertainment potential of PSP beyond gaming. PSP is not exclusively for men, there is a PSP for everyone, and whoever you are, PSP can fit into your life.”
