The Sony PSP is getting an upgrade from its homebrew developers. The focus is now on making the PSP a touch screen enabled device and calling it the iPSP. Up until now PSP homebrew developers have successfully integrated a touch screen keypad into the PSP. They have designed a special keyboard that works on the commands of fingertips and stylus. This keyboard will be available on the Internet for download soon. Apart from this keyboard you will also find additional software code, which has to be installed on your PSP to make it touch screen compatible. However, this is not an easy task and must be done very carefully. Also, it will void the warranty of the console. So, one has to try it at his/her own risk.

The homebrew developers are now aiming to further enhance the touch screen capability of the PSP and are now finding a touch screen solution which will help one play games and access the handheld’s other functions, like music, or photos, all with the stylus. This will also lead to the modifications in the PSP games and the internal hardware and firmware so that they can be made compatible with touch screen operations. While some PSP fans believe that it cannot be possible, the others claim it can be achieved.

Overall, if successful, it would be a great revolution for PSP fans. Once the PSP is transformed into a hundred percent touch screen console then it can be used and enjoyed in the same way the NDS Lite is used. However to enable the touch screen in the PSP an additional screen has to be fit on to its original display, which takes much of the charm. So, it will definitely take some effort to make your PSP touch screen capable, but it is definitely possible.

We reported earlier on the record setting pace of the PSP game Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G in Japan, and it seems as if the game simply cannot be stopped. Monster Hunter has now surpassed the 2 million units sold mark in Japan, and without even being released for an entire month! Many games would never dream of such success in their wildest fantasies, but Monster Hunter is living it.

The record officially makes Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G the best-selling Japanese PSP game of all time, and it is clearly a reason why the PSP has recently overtaken DS lite sales in Japan as well. In fact, statistics show it is currently the second most successful game out there across all consoles, with only Mario Kart Wii topping it. Of course the question on everyone’s minds is when the game will finally make its way here. Given its current success a European edition is inevitable, but the speculation currently puts the release date at around September at best. This is a long time to wait, although some dedicated and resourceful PSP users ought to be able to get their hands on imports. Some people are also sceptical whether or not the game will achieve the same amount of success outside of Japan. We will just have to wait and see.
