Japan Still Getting New PSP Bundles and Actual Game Releases

Still regularly at the top of the hardware charts, the PSP shows no signs of slowing down in Japan and a new collection of value bundles should help keep the handheld swimming along. The new editions are available in black, blue and blossom with a 2GB stick.

  • Powerful Pro Baseball 2011
  • Taiko Drum Master Portable DX 
  • Sengoku Basara Chronicle Heroes 
  • J. League Let's Make a Pro Soccer Club! 7 Euro Plus 
  • Monster Hunter Diary Poka Poka Felyne Village G 


While Europe and America can look forward to the likes of:

  • Madden NFL 12
Wow! At least we've got all these fun minis to play.
