Sony has said that around 500-600 PSP titles will be available for download on PlayStation Vita.

Speaking at its Tokyo Game Show press conference this morning, the hardware manufacturer confirmed that the titles will support dual analogue sticks and upscaled visuals to accommodate the move to Sony’s new pocket brick.

Furthermore, Sony said it’s also considering the possibility of making available special download versions of UMD-only titles, though more info on this is expected to drop at a later date.

Aw man, that last paragraph suggests that games like Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep won't be downloadable for the PS Vita for a while. :( Unless they make it downloadable before the Vita releases . . .

there are so many good psp games, it would be silly for them not to have all or most availaible right-away (not to mention they are going to make a fortune on the game cards)
