Sure, let’s get into this. PSP fans—guess what? There’s some quirky new stuff coming out to celebrate this nifty little handheld. Yep, PlayStation’s been doing this massive 30th anniversary bash—started back in ’24 and all—and the PSP isn’t left hanging.
So, besides some big gaming sales and those snazzy anniversary themes on your PS5, they’re also dropping special editions of PS gear. But let’s focus on the PSP part, shall we? GoodSmile—you know them, right?—they’ve jumped into the nostalgia pool with some PSP swag. We’re talking acrylic stands and keychains that look just like the PSP-1000. They come in classic black and white, which just hits that old-school vibe perfectly.
And here’s the fun bit—they’ve got little acrylic doodads inside, shaped like PSP buttons that jiggle around when you shake them. They call it the “Rattle” effect. Honestly, I gave it a try and it’s kinda soothing? Anyway, these things wiggle and make noise. No clue why this caught my fancy, but there it is.
Now, about the size—GoodSmile hasn’t spilled those beans yet, which is annoying if you ask me. But they did post pics, and you can see the monochrome and colorful icon versions in all their glory. They’re pricing the stands at 1,760 yen (about 12 bucks?) and keychains a bit cheaper. Waiting on that launch date though—might wanna keep your eyes peeled.
Flip the page a bit, and for those who fancy something more practical than just eye candy, they’re restocking the PS5 anniversary stuff too. That includes nifty things like the 30th Anniversary DualSense Controller. Everything sold out last year—no surprise—but hey, pre-orders open on July 23. Just a heads-up: stuff is flying off shelves faster than you can say “jackpot.”
So, whether you’re all about those rattling acrylics or you’re eyeing the restock, don’t dawdle. Things are gonna vanish quickly.
