The latest issue of Famitsu contains first details on Salamander Portable, Parodius Portable and Twinbee Portable for the PSP.

Each collection includes five titles, one of which is being kept secret. Here's what's been announced so far.

Salamander Portable
Salamander (1986)
Life Force (1987)
Xexex (1991)
Salamander 2 (1996)

Parodius Portable
Parodius da! (1990)
Gokujou Parodius: Kakou no Eikou wo Momomete (1994)
Sexy Parodius (1996)
Jikkyou Oshaberi Parodius - forever with me - (1996)

Twinbee Portable
Twinbee (1985)
Detana Twinbee (1991)
Twinbee Yahho! Fushigi no Kuni de Ooabare!! (1995)
Pop'n Twinbee (1996)

Details on the bonuses planned for the titles have only partially come to light. Famitsu confirms that Salamander will offer original and wide modes of play. Parodius will offer a galery mode which allows you to enjoy the classic sounds of the series. It's possible that these modes will be available across all three titles.

Famitsu also confirms that Twinbee will allow you to hold the PSP in a rarely used vertical mode in order to mimic the long aspect ratio of the original arcade machine.

All three collections will be released to Japan in January, carrying a 3980 yen price point. US versions have yet to be announced.

Ketchup

Seriously looking foward to the Parodius collection. I've only played Sexy Parodius briefly back when it was available on Saturn, so I'd really like to get it again and perhaps even work on it.

Anyway, discuss, etc.

Aww, it starts at da!. Where's the MSX original. :(

Unless that's the SUPER SECRET =O

Awesome news! i love specially Parodius and of course the Gradius Compilation that was released some time ago, i like Twinbee but i love Parodius much more... still, Salamander gets Xexex as a bonus... and what a bonus! this is the first time that this game is ported to a console/handheld, so all the three compilations are "must have".

By the way, i cant deny that i got some friend who are Videogame collectors who cries in pain when their know about this, a work of a lot of years of collecting SFC/Saturn/PSX/PC-Engine stuff now screwed on PSP, but oh well, its the "compilation era" of videogame history right now.

it seems konami has learned to have original screen mode for the psp :P did they have original mode in gradius collection? i dont know, because i dont have gradius collection nor psp.
i only read a review that the screen was stretched to fit the psp's screen

Now I can never sell my PSP =D.
