Even with all of its woes, Sony still has time to announce a new product for the PSP. To be fair, these new PSP-branded earphones don’t have anything to do with the PSN outage. Another fair point to make is that Japan has been a lot more accepting of the PSP than North America has. Assuming that Japanese consumers aren’t still upset about the PSN data theft, they may want to pick up their very own PSP earphones on July 21, 2011.

Game accessories maker, dreamGear, has announced that it plans to release “a line of accessories for the Nintendo DSi portable gaming system” (according to the company’s press release) based on Sesame Workshop.

The specific DSI products will be announced during the International CES 2010 later this week (January 7 through 10, 2010). The rest of the release describes other accessories based on its i.Sound line including character earbuds, earphones and speakers for iPod, iPhone and other MP3 players.
