When one thinks of the PlayStation Portable handheld console developed by Sony; they often recall it being a home for titles like “Final Fantasy: Crisis Core”, “Daxter”, “Metal Gear Solid”, or “God of War”.
It is not very often that larger and longer titles such as “Lunar: Silver Star Harmony”, “Brandish: The Dark Revenant”, “Ys: Oath in Felghana”, or “Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky”, are though of as a primary market on the (now legacy hardware) console’s market. These titles are often far more akin to home console games, due in part to their deep stories, extensive hours of gameplay, well drawn out narratives, challenging controls, combat mechanics, and detailed character customization features; many of which are an unusual find in the handheld marketplace.
These delays often lead to a more accurate translation though; and the inclusion of an "omake" box, filled with awesome collectables. Previous releases under their old name came with items such as: Full leather manuals, wristwatches, trading cards, soundtracks, cloth maps, and... punching puppets? Who knew?
To further make things interesting, and to counter the fact that the PSP is a legacy console; the company is asking its fans to vote on the UMD's design. You can cast your vote and pre-order your copy by checking out their Twitter page (as shown in the article below).
An excerpt from the company's website details the included bonus features and bundled items.

What do you all think of this sort of thing? Will you be nabbing a copy of this title for the PSP; even though it is not supported by Sony, anymore?

As with our prior PSP release, a Physical+Digital bundle is being offered during a one-off presale that lasts the month of August. After the presale closes, the game will only be available digitally on PSN. As part of the physical+digital LE bundle, fans will receive a PSN code for a free download for each Physical version purchased. This will allow Vita players who don’t have a UMD drive the means to enjoy the game as well, and collectors to play the game without opening the physical package. However, we’re going to make that decision to keep it sealed really hard as we have announced that the physical game will include a gigantic 14" x 19" poster, full color UMD, and full color manual, PLUS the complete Japanese Original Soundtrack CD!
