i'm guessing this is the small nomura news.

i like the design, but if i were to buy a new ps4 it would be a pro and this seems to be a slim.

I personally love how it looks. I would honestly consider upgrading my PS4 to this if it came west side (even better if it was a PS4 pro as other people have already mentioned). The FFXV one came out here, so maybe this one will as well? Then again, they might wait till KH3 where that one is going to have a LOT of interest behind it.

It looks awesome but I'm honestly not trading in my MGSV PS4 for this one. Let's see what the future brings, still hoping for a KH3 themes PS4.

I misread the price & thought it would be $39.80 for the special PS4 in Australian dollars. The design looks pretty good, but the fact that so far, it's a Japan exclusive makes me wonder if there will be a PAL version available next year.

I would seriously consider trading in my OG PS4 for that (provided I can also bring in my 2TB HD).

the design is simple, from the picture it really doesnt grab me but i am being dishonest because if it came out in NA i would be set on buying it lol

It looks pretty nice. Honestly not that different from the other special editions I guess. Still really nice, I was waiting for this. Now just hope they release it worldwide. And, this PS4 or a PS4 Pro? What's the best deal? (unless this becomes a PS4 Pro Special Edition of course)

Top cover is engraved with an original design featuring the 15th anniversary logo and various symbols from throughout the series. It can be purchased separately until December 22, 2016 for 3,000 yen.

So what exactly does that mean? I'm not sure. The top can be purchased seperatly and then put on your other PS4? What?

The Playstation 4 comes with removable face plates. Basically if someone in Japan already had a PS4 slim and wanted this KH edition, they could just purchase the face plate instead of the console.

This was how it was done on the OG PS4. Not sure how it's done on the Slim though

Ooo, like those plates on the N3DS (not sure how those work either though xD). Thanks, I have this friend who is a die hard KH fan and he just ordered his PS4 last week. He was really sad he couldn't purchase this one instead. So this is great news.

I wouldn't hold your breath. The Pro is too new for bundles at this time. The Slim is more so targeted for special editions.

Dude, the MGSV PS4 is legit. I really enjoy the color scheme of red, black, and gold.

Exactly what I thought. It's very similar to the 10th Anniversary/DDD scheme.

Congrats! And agreed. It's too simplistic.

wait...what?

The PS4 systems have faceplates? TIL. I don't think the Slim has faceplates however. At least nothing seems to indicate it does.

Lmao my bad I think it means you can get it without the game.

Shame you can't just swap the plates like on OG PS4 though. That shit was dope.

So wait, is the top cover (not face plate) purchasable separately? Because 3,000 yen (~$30) + NA PS4 Slim ($300) is cheaper than importing the whole system + import shipping fees.

I don't know if SE will release a KH3 PS4 given this aesthetic (checkerboard) has been the pattern on every LE KH console thus far (except the GBA SP), so IDK how they would even design it given they seem pretty infatuated by this pattern.

As a lot of other people have said, if this were a PS4 Pro, I'd feel much more obligated to make the investment; for now, I'll stick with my OG PS4.

If they make that sort of faceplate available for the Pro (does the Pro have faceplates? I don't know, I'm not up-to-date on that technobabble.) then I'll 100% get it, though; I'll take any opportunity I can get to flaunt my love for this series.

Definitely. It's no doubt the sexiest console on our shelf. I have zero regret buying it.

The Japanese market is clearly more cost efficient and don't care about horsepower with consoles henceforth the reason why the PS4 Slim is being marketed there with skins as opposed to the PS4 Pro.

So is this ever going to make it to the US/Worldwide or is it going to be exclusive? The cover that is.

Or do I have to worry about figuring out how to import this?

A Japanese ps4. What's the point? Unless someone can confirm you can change the language from JPN to Eng at the start up screen. And I converted the price. It costs over 300 dollars. Well actually its 294 but with shipping it'll be over 300.

They're also selling just the faceplate. So, dial it back buddy.

Of course you can change the language. PS4s are region free. You can choose Japanese at the startup of a NA console as well lol.

I was just watching a video on Youtube about this LE PS4 and the narrator said that the top cover by itself is different from the top cover on the actual system, albeit with a similar design. Is this true? My ability to read the Japanese on the official site only goes as far as Google Translate, in other words, not very far.

For those interested in seeing the final product (it's been MIA since announced and I cannot find any online photos), this beauty arrived at my doorstep today.

The images are a bit grainy, I can take high quality photos in a couple of days if anyone wants. Some things to note:
[LIST]
[*]"Original Design Package" that came with the system is actually just a flimsy hard paper cover for a regular PS4 box
[*]Top Cover is actually quite shiny (shown in photos) and the etched on design feels like it can be scratched off with enough friction
[*]Design-wise, it gels seamlessly with the other limited edition KH consoles thus far

Oh wow its so pretty kupo1121! Based on these pictures, I think its the most beautiful looking KH LE system we have gotten to date. I guess the larger size of the system gives them a lot more to work with.

I bought the top cover too and I have to ask, is it super flimsy and comes off at the slightest pull or is it just mine? I lift my ps4 using the gap because it's hard to lift it from the ground and it comes off immediately. I put back the original ps4 cover and it doesn't do that. Probably because it's sturdier. Is mine defective or??? Mine also has this small dent at the right side, maybe it's a production thing maybe it's because they use a frickin paper envelope instead of a box to ship it:mad:

Mine does not come off so easily. While it seems the top cover in general is flimsy, mine snapped into place well (from what I can recall) and has been on ever since. Are you sure you put enough pressure when putting it on to snap it into place? If you did, it might just be your's unfortunately.

If it was available in Europe, I would definitly grab it.
Also, it would have been nice to do a Pro instead of a Slim.
But yeah, to be honnest, the design is reaaaaally cool! ✨

Replying a year late lol but, okay so I tried pressing down on the edges hard and also pushed it "in" sideways to reallyyy make sure, and haha it didn't fall off anymore when I lift it up. Thanks for the advice! I just followed the instructions on the paper included and wondered why is this thing falling off did I miss something.
