We recently reported that Sony will be releasing an updated PSP handheld before the holiday season this year, one that will add significant hardware changes.
The updated handheld will remove UMD, add a sliding screen, and will come in two models, with either 8 or 16 GB of built-in flash memory.
A new report from 1UP suggests that after talking to inside sources, that the new PSP will not be called the PSP-4000 as would be assumed, but instead be called PSP Go!.
The company will unveil the handheld at the E3 event in June and will release the console in September in Japan and hit the US in early November.
Along with the release of the handheld, Sony will have over 100 classic and new titles available for download at launch. Previous reports expect a few blockbuster games will be coming later this year including Little Big Planet, MAG, Heavy Rain and Shadow of the Colossus.
