PSP Confirmed for North America

This headline totally makes sense. I am not referring to the PlayStation Portable (PSP), which has, of course, been available in North America for quite some time now, but to Sega's recent big Japanese hit Phantasy Star Portable (PSP).

PSP coming to our shores was apparently one of those little TGS announcements that slipped under almost everyone's radar, but Sega has confirmed that the game will be making the jump sometime next March.

Unfortunately, the North American version will be missing its MMO-esque multiplayer abilities, retaining only the game's single player story mode and local ad hoc multiplayer.

So, anyone jumping on the slightly gimped PSP for the PSP? Me? Pass.
