Yeah, if you see the entire series of pictures for it, like the one Blight posted, it definately doesn't look racist. If you just look at that one image, then yes it does. Overall, I think the NACCP is overreacting.
Maybe, Sony should've planned on coming out with a pink PSP at the same time with the white one, then instead of seeing a White VS Black ad, all of them would be like White VS Black VS Pink. Then there'd be no problem at all. The connotations of racism wouldn't really be there....
Well... then again.... someone out there would probably think that white chick is beating up the black chick and the lesbian chick. OMG, discrimination!
