Here’s some bad news for PSP owners who want to upgrade to the PSP Go when it’s released. Sony has killed the UMD conversion plan. The idea was that PSP owners who had original UMD copies of their games would be entitled to free PSN downloads of the title, so that they can play it on the PSP Go when they upgrade.
But sadly “legal and technical reasons” put the axe on this plan. Which really sucks for PSP owners who have games they absolutely love. It sure doesn’t encourage PSP owners to upgrade and must feel like a slap in the face.
Sony’s new handheld depends on its 16GB storage for holding games and needs Memory Stick cards, direct USB transfers, or Wi-Fi to load its titles. The company has promised that every game released from October 1st onwards will have a downloadable version.

That don’t matter we have mostly custom firmware already installed on our PSP. PSP Go is hideous and who ever has a PSP would want this crap. The best PSP is the PSP Slim 2001.
