FCC filing for PS3 updated with white model

Sony may be planning to release a white version of its 40GB PS3 system in America soon, according to updated photos presented to the FCC. The photos submitted showcase a very sleek looking white system from a variety of angles. As is typical for the 40GB model, it appears it only has two USB ports in front, and no memory card readers. This listing doesn't necessarily mean the white system is confirmed, but it does make it much more likely that PS3 shoppers will get a new color option in the future.

who knows ?

we will find out on January 28, 2007

ruibing6685d ago (Edited 6685d ago )

This is just a new color model, but I don't think a new price is going to come out until close to when a few big games (KZ2, MGS4, or FFXIII) are to be released.

mikeslemonade6685d ago

Nice time to get your 2nd PS3 in conjunction with the Resistance Fall of Man exploit. Get the White one as your normal PS3 and keep the black one for your homebrew.

Maddens Raiders6685d ago

hope it comes with a pricedrop! : P

MikeGdaGod6685d ago (Edited 6685d ago )

i would too. i've been looking to get a new tv for my bedroom and this would be another nice addition.

if sony drops it to $300, i'm sold

@ blusoops.....

thanks for the info. i'm definately getting another one after i get my next hdtv. i might try to hold off for a white one now that it looks like its on the way.

blusoops6685d ago

Just to let you know: You can get the 40GB PS3 now for $299 at Sony.com...you just have to apply for the credit card, but you'll get $100 off and the 5 free blu Rays...but the deal ends at the end of this month. But if you want a white one...I guess you'll have to wait.

Guwapo776685d ago

Definately a wait and see thing. Now there is a purpose to buy those white controllers. Even though it wouldn't work with my living room setup. Everything in there is black.

I wonder if this white model will include the 80gig version as well.

Ju6685d ago

I think there is no 80G model any more. At least not in my neighborhood. Asking the clerk if they'd get more in he said, there is nothing in the computer on backorder. Are they sold out already?

Skerj6685d ago

Damn, if I didn't have a PS3 yet I'd probably. ..have bought the 60gb anyway. I use every single feature on it regularly. In any case this would be cool to spur some more sales, they should start popping out colors like skittles ESPECIALLY in Japan, saw what happened with the PSP Slim. If there's a clear PS3, I might have to partake in some purchasings.

Guwapo776685d ago

Man...we might need to start one of those online petition thingies.

chrno66685d ago

I would still choose the 60g model. Note that I have already paid around 700+ for the 60 gig including tax a year ago, and I did not regret it one bit, since it is the most complete model. :)

MikeGdaGod6685d ago

i feel ya, but it would still be nice for a second unit and i guess a first time buyer if you didn't have one at all.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle13d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7713d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde20d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy20d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga21d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199221d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga21d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman20d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger21d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box21d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion20d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7221d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7521d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit21d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14921d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7721d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
