I'm not sure if people realize but there are a bunch of good PSP RPGs that didn't make it over. RPGamer made a list of probably the five major/viable ones a few months ago. The list:

Final Fantasy Type-0
The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment
Suikoden: Centennial Tapestry
Valkyria Chronicles 3

Would also like to add Trails in the Sky the 3rd, Nayuta no Kiseki, and .hack//Link.

Basically 8 good PSP RPGs that mostly likely won't come out. There's some other ones but I think these are the best. Type-0 might be ported, P2: EP has a chance but I'd be worried, and I believe XSeed gave a slight hint that they were working on Trails in the Sky SC but there's a lot of work to be done and it's hardly guaranteed.

If all of these came out I'd get a PSP ASAP. It's very, very sad. :/

xseed talks on their board a lot. They're still working on Trails in the sky, SC and said they currently expect to release it unless something comes up (which is possible), they're just not spending all their resources at once, like they did the first game.

They're talking about various ways to release it, a physical release is unlikely, and releasing steam versions of the first and 2nd trails in the sky seem the most likely route beings the success steam has had with those niche little JRPG's, though they have to talk vaguely. And then maybe and digitally for PSP.

Don't forget...

Little Battler series

Digimon Titles

I love the Legend of Heroes series(at least recently) but the localizations are thrown in a tizzy due to massive amounts of dialogue. I like that they really want to flesh out the world, and I love those games story.....but some of it can definitely get cut. After getting 3/4ths thru TitS, I realized the characters started to talk about food several times throughout the story as idle chitchat that never really went anywhere. It would go on for far too long honestly. Virtual food does nothing for me so I would have rather they cut some of the filler, un-needed stuff to get the games localized quicker.

Coming in here and reading the thread, I was sure I would be the only person to mention Digimon games....guess not. More proof and reason they need to localize that bad boy ;)

I only ever played Digimon world 3 i believe on PS1. LOVED IT! I love how in the Digimon universe, you can technically turn your one into countless others. My mains were always Kumamon, Guilmon/Veemon and Runamon(the most badass in the series) and it had a decent story as well.

I just want me a current gen Digmon game that retains the RPG elements like the older ones (Not some stupid brawl fighter like the GBA one or weird action beatemup on PS2). If I could get a new one for Vita that basically implements the stuff from Season 3........I would have sex with a game like that.
