PSP Go now pre-ordering in UK for £230

pspgo3

Both Game and GameStation are offering pre-orders on PSP Go for £230.

The revamp is to cost $250 in the US and €250 on “the mainland”.

It’s out October 1.

Thanks, PocketGamer.

I dont have a PSP but i would rather get the 3000 and be able to buy UMDs. Since you can get cheap games on ebay or marketplace.

XE.com says NO… or more precisely $249.99 = £152.612 so even accounting for tax and shipping I’d expect it to be £199.99

Good luck with that Sony :/

My memory may be a bit fuzzy… but didn’t Sony say in their presentation that the PSP Go would be priced around the same as the starting price of the original PSP… now I could be wrong again, but wasn’t that around the 180-190 mark?

You can get a 16GB i-Touch for less than £200, and it does more, and is much more versatile and better-looking piece of kit, than this escapee from Planet Klunk-o.

So how many PSP GO’s do you get in the box for 230 quid?

This is more likely game being rip off merchants that they have always been.

According to MCV it’s just a guide price – Play’s got it down as £250! Which is ridiculous.

You can buy a 360 elite for that with change for a budget game.

In other words: fuck off.

Ouch. I was expecting an RRP of less than 200 squids!
