Sony officially confirmed that there will be a new version of the PlayStation 3 slim, which was detailed during their conference at the Tokyo Game Show. This new version of the console is about 25% slimmer than the current slim version, with options available for a 250 or 500 GB. The new slim console will be available in either black or white, and will be released in the US on September 25th, with the Japanese version out on October 4th for the black console, and November 22nd for the white console.
There will also be a few bundles available for the system, one with either Uncharted 3: Game of the Year edition, and Assassin's Creed III. I'm not sure if this is to make buyers reconsider getting a Wii U, but it'll be interesting to see if Microsoft follows suit or how this may affect sales of Nintendo's upcoming console.
