Sangokushi is the title of the famous “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” series of strategy games in Japan. While this is one of the most import-unfriendly titles there is out there, it doesn’t stop us from checking out this cool ad! The game seems to be a direct port of the PS2 version, which has already been rereleased as a “Koei Selection” budget title.

Epic Thread: Wow EB just really stuck it to the PSP - NeoGAF

It started with this image,

Trade your PSP for a DS Lite Image

Then, in the middle of page 4, ManaKnight comments:
Looking at that ad makes me want to never shop at EB again, even if they are my only choice. I personally think the PSP is way better than the DS.

No, Sony has been giving PSP pretty good support. Not the support PS3 will be getting and what PS2 got, but still pretty good. PSP is definitely the most amazing handheld ever.

I’m reporting this to SCEA asap.

Good times.
