IGN - August 28, 2009 - Goodness gracious! The PSPgo is almost here! The time has come for Sony’s handheld system to enter the completely digital age and embrace the shimmering line we lovingly call “the horizon.”

As we approach the launch date for Sony’s next portable system, we wanted to compile a list of frequently asked questions regarding the PSPgo in case you haven’t kept up on the latest. Want to know how much it costs or what comes in the box? Well, we have the answers. Check below for all the information you could ever want — and then some — so you can be fully prepared for the system’s launch.

Do not, however, ask us to buy you a system. No matter how tragic your story, we cannot help you. But we can address your inquiries…

When is the PSPgo coming out?
The system will be available on Oct. 1, 2009 in North America/Europe and November 1st in Japan.

How much will it cost?
The PSPgo will retail for $249 in North America, 249 Euros in Europe/PAL territories and 26,800 yen (including tax) in Japan.

What does it come with?
In the box you’ll find the system itself, a proprietary USB cable and an AC adapter that plugs into the USB cable for charging via a power outlet.

Are there any bundles available?
Not for launch. Sony promises that there will be bundles available down the line, and considering how successful they’ve been for previous systems, it’s only a matter of time. But for launch, only the basic box with the system, proprietary USB cable and AC adaptor will be available.
