Transfer PSP UMD games on Vita

     Even if Vita will be the one on the big screen now, the PSP won't be forgotten. Sony designed a way for  PSP games to be played in PS Vita (called UMD Passport). Because the Vita doesn't have a UMD slot, the game would be converted to a digital format. 


Can't find an english version compliments to vitagamr
          A PSP, an original UMD game, a PSN account, and a PS Vita will be needed. First you will need to use the PSP to download an application (UMD Registration Application) which will check the game if it is compatible to convert it into a Vita game. After it has confirmed your game ownership, it will register the game to your PSN account and will provide you a digital downloadable version of the game. When you get your Vita, you can access PSN and download the game to your Vita. Sound so simple right? Not yet.
     Here is the catch: it's not FREE. If you want to transfer PSP games to your Vita you have to pay a fee. The fee ranges from $6.45 to $19.35, that's 280-840 PHP depending on the title.
     The advantage of the transfer playing the game on your current handheld. But if you can manage to play and carry around both a Vita and a PSP, why not just play it on the PSP? The choice is yours.
