Your PSP plays import games and every week we let you know what's coming out from Japan. This week's game amount is huge, so without further delay, here's this week's list:

Continued after the jump ...

If you're like me, then you like to buy your games on the cheap. And you can't get much cheaper than Circuit City and its $17 clearance on a bunch of PSP games.

Here's the list:

Burnout Legends
Death Jr.
FIFA World Cup 2006
Lumines
Mega Man: Powered Up
Midway Arcade Treasures
Namco Museum Battle Collection
NBA Ballers Rebound
Pinball Hall of Fame
Ridge Racer
SSX On Tour
Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max
WWE Smackdown vs. Raw

Yeah, most of these games are a tad old, but we gotta take the deals as they come to us, right? It doesn't look like this deal is currently being offered online, so you'll have to get off the computer and go outside.

Never to be left out when it comes to beating a dead horse/stealing your money/delivering the goods on past franchises, Capcom is getting in on the retro kick by releasing Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded, which is based on the PS2 version, Oct. 24.

The game stuffs nearly 20 of Capcom's greatest arcade games, like Street Fighter II and Ghost 'N Goblins, onto one tiny UMD, and IGN recently got their grubby little mitts on a copy and thought it was a pretty solid title, giving it an 8.0.

While they had generally nothing but good things to say about the collection, they did note that "the game does run into the same noticeable flicker and aliasing issues present in the PS2 disc (in all the shooters), while the transparency effects are hindered by some obvious interlacing troubles."

Aside from the obvious things like how well the games play, a classics collection really benefits from additional and unlockable content, and Capcom didn't skimp out here. "In fact, there are almost 900 different collectibles that can be uncovered over the course of your play-through, and an interesting slot machine mechanic is used to find them (you're awarded tokens for playing through individual games which can then be gambled with to unlock secrets," IGN wrote.

They close by saying, "Reloaded is a solid PSP anthology that's better than its predecessor and one I'd easily recommend for old-school gaming fans everywhere." Mark me down for being totally excited for this one. Knights of the Round is one of my all-time favorite beat 'em ups, and to have it available on the go, has me giddy like a school girl.

The retro hits just keep on coming today! This newly released trailer of the upcoming Capcom Classics Reloaded compliation shows off the game in action, and it gets a retro-loving gamer like myself pretty excited. Not only will it feature Street Figher II, and Ghouls 'n Goblins, it'll also come with game-sharing so that you and your friends can play using just one UMD. The compliation will feature more than 15 games, and will collect stats, and save things like cheats and music in galleries that you can easily access. Best of all, it has a nice budget price of $27 shipped on amazon.com. The game comes out October 24th.

Looks like somebody's on a classic kick: Last Friday, Capcom announced that they would be continuing the nostalgia fest started by Capcom Classics Collection Remix with the coming release of Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded for the PSP. The new title will feature 15 old-school titles, some of which are listed below:

• Commando
• Eco Fighters
• Ghouls n' Ghosts
• King of Dragons
• Knights of the Round
• Street Fighter II

Features for the title include customizable controls, classic or widescreen presentation, game-sharing, and wireless play over Ad-hoc. Unlockable items will also be in plentiful supply via a Capcom-themed slot machine where you can swap game credits for stuff like tips, artwork, and secret codes.

While the core message of the news is pretty much contained within the headline above, the fact is that we're so gosh-darned excited that Street Fighter is finally getting the video treatment on the PSP. After the dust settles, 29 episodes of the Street Fighter II V animated series will be on store shelves, although that may not be for a few more months since they're only planning on releasing Volume 1-5 for the first batch. Capcom is also readying Street Fighter Alpha: The Movie for release during the second quarter as well. These UMDs will sell for $19.99 when they hit retail.

The last Capcom fighter to land on the PSP, Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower, brought some much needed fighting spirit to the launch lineup, considering that there wasn't much to pick from at the time. Longtime fans of 2D fighters should start their rejoicing then, because the progenitor to all those dopey, wannabe cartoon-type brawlers just found its way to the handheld.

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max may not necessarily be the granddaddy of the franchise, but according to the reviews out for it, it certainly shows its pedigree off in a meaningful way. And despite the painful bouts of thumb blisters and hand cramps you'll likely experience with this fighter on the PSP's capable but awkward controller layout, the game's faithful translation, and its extensive roster of extras, make the suffering well worth it.

GamePro [4 out of 5] – "...Besides for the controls, Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max has a lot going for it. Strong graphics mixed with an amazing selection of fighters, along with tons of modes and a wifi connection for wireless fighting make this, for sheer lack of competition, the best fighting game on the PSP."

Gamespy [3.5 out of 5] – "If for some reason your PSP responds beautifully to your commands, then not only are you blessed with a freakish handheld that should be treasured, (or magical hands perfectly made for using the system), but you've got a special treat in store for you here with what may be the best game in your collection. Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max is a pixel-perfect rendition of the arcade game, and a pleasure to behold on the PSP."

GameSpot [8.2] – "Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max is more or less a perfect translation of what's presumably the last game in Capcom's Street Fighter II spin-off series...Pulling off certain special moves and combos using the PSP's controls can be difficult, but that's really the only reason you couldn't wholeheartedly recommend this game to PSP-carrying Street Fighter fans."

There’s somewhat of a dearth of quality fighting games on the PSP. Well, there’s honestly a lack of most everything on our goshdarned little console (except racing games – we got plenty of those) but we’re happy to report that IGN’s happy to report that the forthcoming Street Fighter Alpha Max 3 is coming along very nicely. According to the preview, there’s a ton of features to play around with in the game, and even with the presence of multiple characters onscreen, slowdown is next to non-existent.

We’ll most likely have a review roundup posted when the game launches next month. Until then, you can entertain yourself with The Con. Yeah, we’d rather just count rice grains too.
