The original rhythm game is making a return on the PSP. According to the latest Famitsu, Sony Computer Entertainment is working on a remake of the original PaRappa the Rapper for Japanese PSP release this Winter.
"Remake" is the word that Famitsu uses to describe the game. While the screenshots shown in the magazine suggest a similar look to that of the original, the game will reportedly have new elements. Wirelss play will be included, allowing players to compete with one another and share demo presents. Other bonus features are expected as well.
PaRappa was one of the biggest success stories of the original PlayStation era, right along side Toro the cat from Doko Demo Issyo. While the success didn't continue onto the PS2 (PaRappa 2 was somewhat of a flop), we can't wait for a reunion on the PSP
