At 12 noon PST/3 pm EST today, Sony's new PSP digital comics shop will open for US customers (and note that "US" actually does mean "US" this time--no comics shop for Canada, apparently). The shop will open at 5 pm GMT in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa (Ireland is experiencing a technical issue, so the opening will be delayed). Very cool, but I won't be able to get any comics on my PSP. Why is Canada not included, again? Did Sony ever actually answer that question? (Via Joystiq.)

India's largest game publisher/developer has revealed its upcoming games lineup for the PSP. There isn't a lot of information, but considering that their other PSP games are PSP Minis (Circles and D-Cube Planet), and that they plan to have these out by the end of the year (or very early in the new year), I'm guessing they're probably all PSP Minis. Here are the titles:
- Bee Wars (January)
- Crime Spree (December)
- Deflector (December)
- Flick Sports Fishing (January)
- Pachisi (December)
- Route 66 (December)
- Tiger Trouble (December)
- Tumble Bugs 2 (December)
GameShastra will also be releasing a couple more PSP games (also probably PSP Minis) in March. The titles are:
- Arcade Hoops
- World Cup Tennis
I hope this is a good indication that the PSP Minis store will soon be filling up with good, cheap games.

Namco Bandai has announced Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 for the PSP. In this installment of the series, gamers can play through the Naruto Shippuden storyline in the new adventure mode, or take part in four-player brawls with a choice from more than 50 characters, including at least two brand new characters. There's no release date yet, but it's probably safe to say sometime in 2010. (Source: Namco Bandai press release.)
