Marketing certain games and the way it is done sometimes blows my mind, for example this painfully pink PSP. That obnoxious image on the front, that’s not promoting a PSP game, no, it’s promoting a PC game.
Seriously, isn’t it bad enough that it is that shade of pink, you had to go and do it to the PSP? Now I’m never going to look at mine the same.
The game it is promoting is a PC ero-game that I seriously hope bombs just for the damage it has done to my eyes. Just for that, I’m not passing along a single shred of purchase information, that or I might not know.

This will sell out in Japan in no time. Why? you combine a ero game with a very moe looking PSP and all the A-boys will buy this. In America you wouldn’t sell even one. But remember Japan is different, we all can’t be American.
Get over it. What is it with men and their viscious hatrid of anything marketed to women? The pink PSP is for women, if it isnt for you then just move along. There was the same male moaning when Mac came out with the flower power iMac. Seriously, get over it guys. Everything isnt just FOR YOU.
You might want to actually glance at the name of the author before you assume that all the tech writers here at Slashgear are men. I am a woman saying it is ugly, not a man. However, if it were a man writing on this PSP, they still have a right to find it ugly.
