The PSP2 will have an uphill struggle, almost vertical.  I'm not saying it can't be done, but it is going to be by  no means easy.

Among the PSP's strengths was that it had very good Japanese so called 'hardcore' 3rd party support, such as Peace Walker, Persona, Crisis Core, Monster Hunter, Valkyria Chronicles, BBS, etc.  Despite the likes of Persona and MGS not appearing at all on the DS, they are announced for the 3DS.

which means there's no way they'll EVER come out on a psp2???

I think they will appear on the platform, I even think the 'main' portable MH games will be on PSP2 rather than 3DS.  What I mean is that I think this gen for many of these series the PSP was seen by the developers as the only viable handheld platform to release the game on, despite the DS' massive and diverse userbase.  For series like MGS, PSP had in effect a handheld monopoly (I'm excluding the Iphone MGS game).  As that monopoly appears to have disappeared for next gen, many might see that as one less reason to own a PSP2 as well as or instead of a 3DS.

point taken.
