An advert for a third-party LittleBigPlanet peripheral pack has appeared in UK trade paper MCV, which seems to confirm a new version of Sony’s PSP may soon be announced.
The advert can be found in issue 568 of the trade publication, which was placed by peripheral firm Accessories4Technology. The foot of the page clearly shows a list of compatible PSP models, which includes the long rumoured but as yet unannounced PSP 4000 model.
Analysts have said that Sony putting out another model of PSP - speculated to be a PSPgo with a UMD drive - is highly likely. “I think it is possible and likely that the PSP-4000 will support UMD, and I think that Sony will support whichever formats make it the most money,” Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter recently told us.
