Monster Hunter Freedom 2

Check Site at Amazon

from Nathan Davison, Gaming.TweakTown.com
"this hit japanese adventure series proves its value on the psp console one more time."
from www.amazon.com
this was the first game i tried for the monster hunter series, after playing this i back tracked and tried the first one, and i've also tried the japanese counter-parts.
from www.amazon.com
lots of little improvments over the japanese ps2 release makes this worth the wait.

Patapon for PSP

$27.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
most american developers probably wouldn't take a risk on a game concept like this - that's why i really like japanese game developers.
from www.amazon.com
basically, you're their god (the base character name is "kami," japanese for god) and you must control your miniature army to reclaim the patapons' former glory, like in the days under the previous
from www.amazon.com
seems like this was geared towards girls as you can find japanese tv adverts on youtube.

it has a traditionally japanese feel to the main objective of the game.
from www.amazon.com
locoroco is a japanese import game for the psp handheld system.
from www.amazon.com
historically, i've never been much for japanese games, but this one is very addictive and fun.
from www.amazon.com
it's very cute and very japanese, with perky, happy songs that have no meaning to us, but are fun to listen to.

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Heroes

$27.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
there is one final gripe though in that the game has been significantly altered since its japanese release...which wouldn't be such a problem if not for the fact that nobody in america seems in the
from www.amazon.com
there's no story to speak of(unlike the japanese game that was released last year in japan, which was loaded with rpg-esque material).

Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee

$24.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i have the japanese release (minna no golf portable) and it's a good handheld port of the console game.
from www.amazon.com
each course has its own look and feel, from japanese pagodas to misty mountains.
from www.amazon.com
each golfer's bizarre, intrinsically japanese personality comes through nicely thanks to some spirited animations and clean, detailed textures, even though the golfers themselves are kind of

VALKYRIE PROFILE LENNETH

$28.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.pricegrabber.com
i hear this is based off the japanese ps1 release and not the north american release which had simple improvements like item organizing.
from www.amazon.com
since lenneth psp was ported from the japanese edition, the psp version's improvements are built on an earlier revision of the game.
from www.amazon.com
so imagine the difficulty of the task of a japanese composer making not just 2 cd's, but 2 good cd's for a game steeped in norse mythology.
from www.amazon.com
from what i can gather, the in game graphics for valkyrie (after 15 minutes [though it seemed like much longer]) i'd seen some really cool character graphics - bit like tekken dr in-game graphics -
