PSP Region Compatibility FAQ

Games MIGHT have them. It all depends on the developer. (No matter how hard I hit the keys, no one listens.)

I just got my PSP in Dubai last week. and it is a region code 3 Machine. I have searched the forum but couldnt find anyone with the same region code.

I also tried to register the psp and I keep geting back an Error Message.

I read on some Japanesse Pagees that the European one wll be the same Region Code as Japan. On the back of the Box It says:
The PSP system can play UMD marked with either region code "ALL" or "3"

Has anyone got an idea if this is the region code for Europe or what.
Since the PSP will only be out in Europe on the 1st Sept. I cant compare it.


thx

US is region 1, and I think Europe and somewhere else is Region two. DId you import?

Assuming all PSP region coding follows that of standard DVD (which seems to be the case), Australia would be region 4. Below is the list of region numbers and the corresponding areas.

1: U.S., Canada, U.S. Territories
2: Japan, Europe, South Africa, and Middle East (including Egypt)
3: Southeast Asia and East Asia (including Hong Kong)
4: Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Central America, Mexico, South America, and the Caribbean
5: Eastern Europe (Former Soviet Union), Indian subcontinent, Africa, North Korea, and Mongolia
6: China
7: Reserved
8: Special international venues (airplanes, cruise ships, etc.)

If that's a question, the answer is no for the movies, and yes for the games.
