Sony may be working on newer PS4, PS3 models – rumour

4.4
Sony has registered two PlayStation models with the Indonesian Ministry of Communications, indicating that a hardware revision could be on the way.


The first listing on a website related to the Indonesian Ministry of Communications shows the model number (CUH-1106A). The Asian PS4 model name is (CUH-1006A), and as DualShockers suggest, this could indicate a newer revision of sorts of the PS4 model, not a completely new model like the older Slim to the original PS3.

DualShockers also adds that this might not be a model with a bigger hard-drive, as the hard-drive is indicated by the last letter, which is unchanged.

The second listing is a PS3 listing, with the model name (CECH-4306CH), which seems to be following the model number of the Super Slim model (CECH-4001A), indicating that a revision of the Super Slim line is also on the cards.

If this is indeed a newer model, Sony could be announcing at E3 next month, we’ll find out soon enough.

I quite like the models they already have, but i'd like to see what they can come up with.

Im actually kind of glad they're thinking of making new PS4 and PS3 models. The current models are kind of bland at the moment, So maybe they will actually have some really cool designs!

Rumors are just that, rumors. I can't see this happening.

I really don't see the purpose in it, when they redesigned the PS3 I was dumbfounded, I guess to keep up with how Microsoft redesigned their 360 alongside the One release? No idea.

yea I don't see the point in this at all.

-Tupac Seriously? What is the point? It will still do the same thing.


I guess it looks better with different models. But I can see where you're coming from. Same price though so no one really cares.

BCWPosted:

Pretty cool but I don't think they need it.

Sony lost $1.2 billion so they're gonna remake consoles that no one will probably end up buying? Well, more money loss I guess.

TangPosted:

Hopefully they announce a new ps3 console. I don't care so much about ps4 but ps3 could get some people buying that again

Sanyo Why make a new PS3 model? That's stupid.


The PS3 is still popular, but i see where you coming from.
