PSP line up for Japan.

[Devilbod]

Probably not what you really want to hear but still a few titles will be on the euro release.

SCEI have unveiled the games Japanese PSP owners can expect to play when the handy console is released over there.

Hold onto your hats because we have a run down of the PSP games that are being released alongside the handheld wonder in Japan. We stress that these are only confirmed for a Japanese release and as yet there isn't a confirmed list for Europe. But when has that ever stopped you pondering and gossiping about the ones you'd like to see over here?

A lot of the titles are yet to be confirmed (and some only have "series" meaning "another game in the..."), but here's the definitive list and who's publishing it over there:
