..NO the psp is dead outside of japan and there is no chance in hell of any newer games coming out here period. Sorry for being so blunt but that's how the market is now.

Could easily be a downloadable title for the PSN/VITA outside of Japan, but I guess that would depend on how the PS3 game does outside of Japan...

This would have to be approved funimation first since they hold all rights over one piece in the r1 region. The game would have to be fully dubbed and translated as well so I'm going to go with a big fat .. NO. The psp is dead outside of japan people, hell 80% of local retail stores where I live aside from game-stop don't even carry products for the psp anymore.

You can play PSP games on a Vita, if that's the only concern.

sigh digital copies only and not all psp games are compatible with the vita. There isn't enough money to be made off this to bring over a digital only game that in the end will only sell 4000 maybe 5000 copies.
