Its funny that Yahoo shows a Vita. Here in the states, we haven't had PSP games in years, whereas I recently bought a imported game that was made last year I believe.

I would have thought that they stopped selling PSPs a while ago.

Have a Vita, which for the record I think is a great little system, specially with Plus! Also still play my PSP till this day. Have a ton of games for it. It was a great little system.

I might try to pick up a PSP for a good price now that they're discontinuing them. Should be able to get some marked down I would imagine. I hope. lol

Well Japan was keeping PSP alive by releasing so many Visual Novels and RPGs on PSP with some music rhythm games. But Sony feels its time to just let PS Vita shine and let it get all of the Visual Novels and RPGs which it has done a great job of doing that so far.

Wow... 20 hours and I'm the first to bring up the irony used in the thread title?

"Sony pulls the plug on [a system that doesn't require being plugged in to operate]."

Yes but it does need said plug to charge which if it can't charge it will slowely and elegantly fade away and die.

America still gets PSP games but usually just either games that are localized from Japan or Sports games that feel like they have to be on every single system including on the dying systems. But they are usually download-only.
