Was a New Touchscreen PSP Released? No — Here's the History

No new touchscreen PSP has been released. The PSP line ended in 2014. Full timeline:

None have a touchscreen. PSP uses 4.3" 480×272 TFT LCD with **physical buttons only**.

You Might Be Thinking Of:

  • PlayStation Vita (2011–2019): Successor. **Has 5" OLED/LCD capacitive touchscreen + rear touchpad.** Plays PSP games (digital), PS1, Vita cards. Discontinued.
  • Nintendo DS / 3DS (2004–2020): Dual screens, **bottom is resistive touchscreen**. Entire library designed around touch.
  • Smartphone Attachments: Razer Kishi, Backbone One — turn phone into PSP-like handheld.

Current Handhelds (2024): Steam Deck OLED, ROG Ally X, Lenovo Legion Go, Ayaneo 2, Nintendo Switch OLED — all touchscreen + controls. That's where the market went.
