Colored Playstation game consoles are not new. Colored unit other than the standard colors (black and white) offered are usually in conjunction with game bundle (such as the red Marvel’s Spider-Man Edition we saw recently), but this one here is different.

Sony has playfully inserted a few ‘extra special’ hardware units that bear serial numbers that commemorate important events in the history of Playstation, like serial number 09995 for the US launch date of the original Playstation on September 9, 1995, 01115 for the US launch date of PS4 (November 15, 2014) and 01013 – for October 13, 2016, the day when PS VR is introduced to the US market.
