PSP Game suggestions compilation

[Fabrizo]

The suggestions area seems to be really full of PSP games, so because I have too much time on my hands I decided to make a list of all the games recommended so far. Plus this way fewer duplicate threads will be made.


-----Upcoming English releases-----

Carnage Heart EXA (Mar 19 2013, PSN-only)
Class of Heroes II (March/April 2013, UMD+PSN. UMD copies limited to pre-orders.)
Sweet Fuse: At Your Side (Aug 22 2013, UMD+PSN)
Mystic Chronicles (TBA, PSN-only)
Black Rock Shooter (TBA - Probably cancelled)
Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC (Not confirmed)

-----Unlocalized-----

[AtlanteanMan]

There are a bunch of very nice-looking prospective games on these posts, among my favorites is Valkyria Chronicles 3, if only so Western gamers can experience the continuation of the great series that started as a PS3 title. I would like to add Daisenryaku Perfect for PSP to the list (in addition to Daisenryaku Perfect for PS3/XBox 360, which I've already suggested on another thread). The PSP is perhaps the biggest home for JRPGs now that the genres has sadly been pushed increasingly out of the console market, but Strategy has an even harder time finding a home on ANY Western platform.

[Wyrdwad]

Wow, a lot of effort went into this list. Good on you for taking the time to find images and/or links for all of these! A lot of great titles on this list, showcasing just how amazing the PSP's software library really is. Some of these are titles we've considered or are still considering, and others are ones I don't even think we've THOUGHT of before. Definitely a handy reference!

...FYI, though, that screenshot you have for "Corpse Party: Book of Shadows" is actually from the first Corpse Party (a.k.a. "Corpse Party: BloodCovered: ...Repeated Fear"). Book of Shadows is the sequel that comes out in Japan next week, which I'm very much looking forward to. Can't wait to get my copy of its LE, with those adorable-looking Naomi and Seiko figurines. (:

Also, you have no image for "Over My Dead Body." Looks like maybe the link was broken?

Nice list! I'm interested in purchasing many of these games, especially Growlanser I & IV, VC3, Grand Knights History, LoH: Trails of Blue, Gungnir, Frontier Gate, Far East of Eden, Elminage, Suikoden I & II, and Shining Hearts. Hopefully Xseed can make some deals and secure some of these!

[Akai Shuichi]

Its kind of sad watching this list and knowing that there are so many great games that will never come to the West.

[rpgfan]

Awesome thread! I am dying for Elminage and Tengai Makyo. There is also To Heart 2 Dungeon Travelers that isn't on this list. Here is its thread.

I hope Xseed will bring these games here.
