Konami released the first details today behind the two special PSP packs they’ll be shipping in Japan alongside Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, which is due out March 18 over there.

The “Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker Premium Package” combines a copy of the game with a PSP (3000 model) done up in skull-pattern camouflage, inspired by the logo of Snake’s Militaires Sans Frontieres guerrilla group. You also get a carrying pouch and handy cleaning cloth in the deal, all for the price of 26,980 yen.

If that’s not hoitie-toitie enough for you, there’s a limited-edition version of the same set available for 36,980 yen exclusively on konamistyle.jp, Konami’s shopping site in Japan. That box, only 1,974 of which are being offered for sale, also includes a strap, an original PSP stand, dog tags, and other unspecified goodies.

MGS: Peace Walker is hitting stores May 25 in the US.

The tower defense title Savage Moon is about to take its act on the road. Fluffylogic has announced that the formerly PS3-exclusive tower defense game will soon be on the PlayStation Portable.
“For the last few months FluffyLogic personnel have been toiling away in an underground bunker to produce the mobile incarnation of the game: Savage Moon: The Hera Campaign – featuring new weapons, new bugs, news maps and new gameplay,” wrote producer Ana Kronschnabl and designer Tom Rawlingson the PlayStation Blog.

New bugs include the Drainer, which emits a “bio-magnetic pulse-field” that can disable human technology, with the humans having developing the Sniper Tower in response. The latter’s name is pretty much self-explanatory, featuring the ability to seek out and destroy the deadliest bug on the map.

Savage Moon: The Hera Campaign is also introducing the ability to play as the Supreme Commander of the armada. Players will be able to take a tactical approach to the bug squashing, with the ability to concentrate their resources into different areas.

The original game was launched on the PlayStation Network last winter. No specific date for the PSP version, but it looks like we can expect it sometime next year.

With its first solo outing a success, Disgaea’s demonic penguin mascot will soon be coming back for more. Nippon Ichi has just announced that a sequel to the PSP’s Prinny: Can I Really Be The Hero.
We don’t have much information about the sequel, but it’s likely to be NIS’s track record suggests that the sequel will be quite similar to the original. For Prinny fans, that’s not necessarily a bad thing, as the first game rated a ‘B’ in our review.

If you haven’t had a chance to play the first game, you can find it on the PlayStation Network. With a budget version having just been announced for Japan, hopefully North America will follow suit. Just be warned that the game is apparently quite hard.

No release date, but it’ll likely be out late next year.
