replies: text: There isn't enough room in that table to write if the game only has downloadable content or if the game only offers "Internet Ranking". That table only has room to list how many players can play in the game. Also some servers get shutdown and there's no room to write that in the table either. - Akadewboy (talk) 19:47, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that issues such as those are not very common, and therefore should be in the specific game articles. If a game only offers "Internet Ranking," or infrastructure mode just for downloads, then it should have a "No" in that column. If a server gets shut down, most people only care that they can not use it anymore, and the table will reflect that. MrKIA11 (talk) 20:10, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Uh, no idea, but I think it would cost them more money to keep them running than they like to spend if it isn't a mainstream game anymore. But that's not really pertinent to this article. MrKIA11 (talk) 20:18, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I think that there are so few games that have special conditions about the infrastructure mode that that information should just be included on the individual games' pages. If a server is shut down, then that information can be on the game's page and the list would have No under the infrastructure column since it can not be used anymore. I can understand that there are different types of gamesharing options, but what different types of infrastructure are there? A person can easily find which games have infrastructure by sorting the list, which also puts the games in order of how many people can play. MrKIA11 (talk) 12:28, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  I agree with the merging. What I would like to see is the removal of that article but include a category, "PlayStation Portable Wi-Fi games" and put all of those games in there. This would still maintain a "list" of games that are wifi in alphabetized order while removing the article. This article also has the provided information about Wifi/Adhoc capabilities. If readers want more information on the game's wifi capabilities they should just click on the game's article. Strongsauce (talk) 13:41, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Take a look at infrastructure list now.  This will give you an idea of what I see as the potential for that list.  I figured, if you're planning on merging the list anyways, no one will mind if I update it a bit.  Now that I've started testing the games, I'm finding a lot of inconsistencies between this list and the main list (and errors on both sides).  I also found some games that didn't have infrastructure at all and were one or the other list.  Regardless of the future of infrastructure list, I figure that it will be good to have it updated.  This is only the first step in completing that table.--Transce080 (talk) 19:24, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Instead of there being 1 column to show what regions a game was released in, should there be an individual column for each of the 4 main regions, and then a check mark or something under each one where the game was released? This would make it easy to see what games were released in a certain region by sorting the table by that column, but then the order of release would be lost, so which is more important?

replies: text: Personally I do not think there is a reason for one. The main reason I would not add it is that there is limited space, and that is not an important category. People can go to the games' individual pages for that. MrKIA11 (talk) 21:45, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I would say it would be nice for a genre column, then you can sort into genre, it would help those like me that are interested in buying games in a certain gerne. However there is limited space for it. Govvy (talk) 16:17, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Personally I don't think that they should be included in the list. It does not help a reader on the English Wikipedia to see games that are only in Asia. It is also hard to find reliable information on them that is in English. MrKIA11 (talk) 00:06, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

text: It doesn't have region restrictions?? I did not know that. In that case, if we could find a reliable source (in english) that has info regarding not only developer and publisher, but also multiplayer, then it would be a good idea to add them. MrKIA11 (talk) 01:36, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

text: Well, I came here looking exactly for Japanese games, you can legally buy them directly from the Japanese PSN if you have an account (I do), and I do want to buy some of them (like Bleach Heat the Soul 5, Soul Carnival 1 and 2, Ikkitousen Eloquent Fist, God Eater, etc), and I wanted to know if they had multiplayer or gamesharing capabilities before buying. I guess that I'll do some research and add my results (and the sources) here. Hypersk (talk) 22:40, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Firmware requirements 

message: I see this has been discussed extensively above but it doesn't really look like anything came of it. It seems insane to me to have a separate row for every release date and publisher. Potentially, you'd have a row for every English-speaking country in the world. It seems completely inefficient. Simply as a user (not an editor) I was baffled by the article when I first came to it to look something up. The fact that the default sort on each table is different is confusing. I forget what game I was actually looking for but as an example, say I trying to look up the Australian release date for Gran Turismo: I'd first look down the first list of games I came to and would notice that it wasn't there. Then I'd probably scroll down further and find that unreleased games are listed separately and realise that it might not of been released yet. Then I'd see an entry for Gran Turismo as coming out on 1 October but notice that's in Europe. I wouldn't know which way to look for the AUS one so I'd have to look all the way up and down the table for it. You may say "read the page properly then!" but most readers don't and shouldn't have to. It should be intuitive. This is made more confusing by the fact that the List of PlayStation 3 games and List of downloadable PlayStation games (which also lists PSP games) are arranged differently. Far from the suggestions above that the current layout is more user-friendly, I think it's extremely unuser-friendly. My thinking is that a user is going to come to this article with a game in-mind expecting to find a list of PSP games where they can easily look-up the release date for it. Having separate lists assumes the user knows whether the game has been released yet or not.
From an editor's perspective, I've just added a release date for a game and moved already released games into the top list. This took ages. The page load times were very long considering the amount of information that the article provides and having to move items from a date-sorted list to an alpha-sorted one was a pain. In general, updating the page is far more complicated than it needs to be.
:One thing that makes this list unique is that the PSP is region independent, so the first release date is the most important. To have separate columns for each region would dramatically increase the page size and leave much wasted space. I think the main reason for this page is not for individule details, but to compare PSP games as a group (i.e. which games have what features, which games have a certain developer released, etc.). As far as having 2 separate tables, it is not technically a game for the PSP until it has been released. And it makes sense that games that have not come out are sorted by when they are expected to, and this makes it easier to see what needs to moved up next. There are times when a game is announced, but never gets released. If you are trying to find the release date for individual game, then wouldn't it make sense to look at that game's page, where all of the release details are indicated? Of course this all just my opinion. MrKIA11 (talk) 15:39, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Should PS1 games be mixed in? 

message: I am a PSP collector that has been looking for a list of physical retail releases in the US.  The list of games here is extensive but still incomplete (I've added a few).  The trouble I found was that the release information for all regions is in a single column which makes sorting that column useless.  I propose eliminating the columns for adhoc/wifi/gamesharing (this can/should be found on individual game pages)and replacing them with columns for NA/JP/EU/AUS region, with the release date in the applicable boxes and a blank if it didn't release in that region.  I realize I could just do this myself  (and I would, gladly) but I don't want to do a bunch of work just to have an admin revert it or something. Rswslowman (talk) 16:14, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

message: I noticed that this list is missing the Mune Kyun Otome Collection, which was a series of budget re-releases of certain D3 Publisher otome games. As far as I know all of the games were already released on the PSP before that, so none should be particularly unique besides the packaging and serials, but they have separate entries on the PlayStation website (ex. the Last Escort Club Katze one can be found on that wiki page).
