Reuters is reporting that Sony intends to unveil a new smaller version of the Playstation two next week, called the PStwo. Like the successful shrinky-dink PSone version of the first Playstation, the PStwo will maintain all the same functionality (although who knows about the inputs and outputs) and will play all the same games as the older PS2. As usual, if anyone has pictures they’d like to share, we’re always happy to maintain your anonymity.
I would also expect information about the PSP to solidify next week, too, with pricing and launches dates to be shored up for both Japan and elsewhere. My favorite PSP launch title so far? “Fight Club Mahjongg.” I’m so not joking.

Update: It’s probably best to clarify that this isn’t set in stone from Sony yet. They did register the PStwo name, though, so I would expect a new console is likely, although we may not hear about it Tuesday.
