Yes! You
must play this massive 300MB Japanese demo of
Phantasy Star Portable. What are you waiting for?! Remember: the O button confirms in this demo. There will be quite a bit of Japanese text, so some knowledge of the language will help greatly. The demo contains character creation, CG cutscenes and is fully voiced. We can only hope that Sega announces an English language version of this game soon.
1.
Download the demo zip file.
2. Extract the contents of the zip file.
3. Connect your PSP to your computer using a USB cable.
4. Go to the PSP/GAME folder.
5. Copy ULJM91014 folder into the GAME directory.
Make sure there are no sub-directories in this folder.

No need to twist my arm Andy.
I've been a Phantasy Star fan since the first (yes I had a sega master system) and the current game in my psp is Phantasy Star 4 (on the Genesis Collection).
I will learn Japanese for Phantasy Star.

I can't start the game. After I create new character demo starts over and brings me to first screen. It's impossible to start actual game. Any ideas? I tried to launch it on PSP Slim.

just finished playing it, and i got to say it is awsome! the fighting mechanics are really easy to pick up, i thought the controls were gonna be a bit wierd since i play ps2 version of it, but the controls were excellent, graphics are great, i really hope they make a english version of the game. us americans and people from europe have not had a game to look forward to on psp since final fantasy 7 crisis core and god of war. the japanese have had alot of great games thats been in thier region only. this game will be great, but please english? note to people who just start the game: just press o through all the text, there is no wrong thing to do

Sweet, sweet demo. The game has been ported almost flawlessly to the PSP, and the customization options are great. The only 'complaint' I have is that the camera pans too far away from the character on missions... it looks tiny, and you can't appreciate the nice character model you make. Apart from that, everything's nice.
Hope to hear from a western release soon!

Hey great! thanks for the heads up. Say arent the makers of this game the ones who made the first Radiant Mythology game? I wonder if there next game Radiant Mythology 2 will take a few cues from what they learned making Phantasy Start Portable.

I don't speak a lick of Japanese, and therefore that demo was impossible to figure out. I understand that you have to use the O key to accept, but it was still very difficult to figure out what to do and where to go. I never could get into combat.

Me neither. I felt like there was no where to go after creating my character. I did a lot of talking, then I had two options, go into that room and click on some stuff that pulled up conversations or go out and look at the place from space where I could pull up a menu that said NEW but wouldnt let me doing anything when I clicked through. Theres like nothing else to do, the Start menu doesnt get me anywhere either.
Where do we go for actually playing the game everybody?

You have to navigate the start menu, and invite the two chars to your party. Just like in PSU. Once you have them in your party (you'll see their names and life bars above yours), you can actually do the mission that was once faded out.
