The Slim PSP might not differ too greatly to the versions of the handheld most of us are still wielding, but that hasn’t stopped over 300,000 of the little fellas to be sold in Japan in just the first three days on sale.

According to Famitsu, 250,702 units were sold of the various coloured Slim PSP’s, and a huge 75,943 of the Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core limited edition bundles, making quite a hefty total shifted so far.

It’s a hell of a number, and congratulations to Sony for spotting a slot in the market which they can use to extract some cash. Now, do you fancy letting us UK gamers get a hold of some different coloured Slim PSP’s?
