 ETC Frequently Asked Questions
Will a Japanese PSP play European UMDs?
  
No. You may be thinking about how Japan and Europe share the same DVD region code (2) but this does not necessarily mean that PSP UMDs from Europe will play on Japanese PSPs. 

But aren't USA PSPs capable of playing Japanese games?
  
Yes, but PSP games are not region coded. However, PSP UMD-Video movies and possibly even UMD-Audio discs are region protected. The protection allows publishers to control the distribution of movies within the regions that they are meant for.  

How about a hack that will defeat the UMD region check on a PSP?
  
That's a possible solution that may become available in the future. For example, DVD player region hacks are fairly easy to find/execute/perform and a similarly simple solution may be possible on the PSP.

I heard from my cousin's neighbor's best friend Timmy that the USA PSP uses Samsung LCD screens that are inferior to the Japanese PSP. True?
  
False. USA PSP units use the same Sharp LCD that's in Japanese PSP units. Samsung supplies NAND and DDR memory chips that are used in the PSP but no screens, at least for now.
