Only the ultra-fashionable (and rich) who demand the most exclusive gear will be interested in these unique and luxurious cases. Made by top-class designers such as Burberry, Eley Kishimoto, Fendi, Goyard, Miu Miu and others, each case is incredibly individual and stylized to a certain aesthetic. Prices range from $95 to $2500 USD.
This is getting out of control. I mean, does the ipod have such high fashion accessories? They must think gamers are rich to shell out $50 (and soon upto $70) a game. Not so!
No, they don't think gamers are rich, they (high fashion folks) probably see the PSP as being a very fun, usable and sexy/fashionable device. Or at the very least they're just having fun. 99.999% of PSP owners won't be into this, but let's not forget that there is a .001% of owners who will. And that's how high-fashion works -- at those prices, you only need a small amount of people buying. Miu Miu/Burberry and the others aren't Logitech or K-Mart, totally different market.
Anyway, look at this positively -- it can only trickle down. If you suddenly start seeing stars carrying PSP's, then more people will buy PSP's, which means more cash to Sony/developers which translates to more games, more content, etc. for the rest of us.
I think it's good. If celebreties are all hooked on the PSP, well that's just good press for Sony. And yes, they have rediculouse cases for the iPod too... I wouldnt mind having a Rocawear case (if Jay-Z ever decides to make one)... That would be dope.
I have to agree 100% with Captain (as usual. That guy is smart).
Sony doesn't plan to sell these, they are simply a marketing ploy. Since the Ipod style goes hand in hand with electronics these days. Sony thinks having big fashion names designing product will help with PSP "hip factor." I believe that I read somewhere that these aren't even obtainable.
