A Sony representative told Kotaku (http://kotaku.com/5883089/sony-you-wont-be-able-to-bring-psp-discs-to-vita) that the "UMD Passport" service (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/11/11/umd-passport-application-moves-umd-based-psp-games-to-the-vita/) will not be available to American Vita owners.
Of course, you'll still be able to buy any digitally-distributed PSP games through the Vita's PlayStation Store and play them on the new hardware -- and you'll be able to play the PSN games you already bought on your PSP. But those UMD games will be of no use unless you keep your PSP.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Vita 'UMD Passport' won't be offered in US (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/02/07/vita-umd-passport-wont-be-offered-in-us/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Tue, 07 Feb 2012 15:00:00 EST.
