It seems that the rumored “super slim” edition of the PlayStation 3 won’t be debuting at Gamescom 2012, according to a new report, thanks to the fact that there are too many current PlayStation 3’s on the shelves.
The super slim edition was to come in 16GB, 250GB and 500GB flavors, with the 16GB version using flash memory, much like the Xbox 360 4GB console.
Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida had evaded questions about a smaller PS3 at E3, only hinting, ”We haven’t announced anything new on PS3 in terms of hardware revisions. We should never say never - hardware guys are always looking at ways to make things cheaper, smaller.”
The “super slim” PS3 was later allegedly outed by manufacturing photos a week ago.
