Top 5 PSP games that need to make a comeback on PS5 and Switch

Send Push

As you can tell from my recent , I'm a big fan of Sony's Portal handheld, which lets you stream your PS5 games without losing any DualSense functionality.

Still, as much as I like and appreciate the premium feel of Sony's newest handheld, I'd much rather a dedicated gaming device like the PlayStation Portable.

Released in 2004/2005 (depending on the region), the PSP was arguably a little ahead of its time, providing a home console quality experience in a pocket-sized form. It's something the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck would successfully replicate many years later.

Indeed, unlike the stuff you'd find on the Game Boy, DS and other popular handhelds, PSP games felt more like the kind of thing you would play on a traditional console.

With this in mind, we've picked out a handful of PSP games that we would love to see make a comeback, whether that's a full remake, a remaster, or even a PlayStation Plus Premium re-release.

Let us know some of your favourite PSP games in the comments below.

Chinatown Wars is certainly one of the more unique and interesting GTA games ever created. With its top down viewpoint, Chinatown Wars better resembles the original GTA games from the PSOne era, albeit with the polish, mission variety and flair for storytelling of the 3D greats.

While it initially made its debut on the DS, the PSP edition feels like the definitive version thanks to the system's additional horsepower. If Rockstar remastered this for the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck they'd have another hit on their hands.
