This week marks the beginning of a LocoRoco celebration! With LocoRoco 2 hitting PSP’s in just a matter of a weeks, we’ve been reading a lot of great things online with awesome previews on GameInformer.com and cool interviews with LocoRoco-creator, Kouno-san on GameZone.com, and to celebrate all the Loco-Love we are going to offer a ton of awesome LocoRoco Playstation store goodies, and when I say, “awesome” I mean FREE! So be sure to check out the PlayStation Store every week till launch! (Heck..we might even go past launch…who knows?)
To begin, we are kicking-off with some lovely LocoRoco-themed PSP wallpaper! Whatever mood you are in, these are sure to put a smile on the face and brighten up your PSP system. Head to the PlayStation PC Store later today to get hooked up! If you want to get the full download on what’s new and fresh about LocoRoco 2, be sure to check out our last Loco-Post where our producer, Tsubasa Inaba, dishes on what he loves about LR2, like the new multiplayer and shows you how it feels to get whooped on it! Check us out next week for more Loco-Love on the PS Blog!
So what are you “hanging” around for?

I really like to see a version of Loco Roco for PS3, not like Cocoreccho.

I can’t really see loco roco for ps3 , I mean for psp its fun when your on the go and your bored but to sit and play doesn’t sound fun.

Speaking of LocoRoco on the PSN, In light of the release of LocoRoco 2 for 19.99, how about reducing the price of the PSN version of LocoRoco (1) from 22.99?
I would find it a tough pill to swallow that the year old original costs more than the brand new sequal.
Already preordered LocoRoco 2!

depward | January 29th, 2009 at 2:17 pm
Will you possibly drop the price of LocoRoco 1 on the PSN store? $15 and it’s mine..

TerryVSL | January 29th, 2009 at 2:19 pm
LocoRoco 2 – Day 1 purchase. I’m amazed at how technically impressive the graphics and dynamics are in the PSP LocoRoco games.
How about Home stuff?
LocoRoco stuff for our apartments? LocoRocos, Mui Mui, etc
LocoRoco clothes
A LocoRoco Home Space
A LocoRoco arcade machine
Chuck Lacson replied on January 29, 2009 at 3:55 pm
We are totally with you on that and have been discussing the possibilites internally. Don’t be surprised if you see LocoRoco invade HOME sometime in the future.
Keep the fingers crossed!

maxxy209 | January 29th, 2009 at 2:24 pm
Yeah seriously the price of loco roco on psn is ridiculous I was thinking of buying but then decided no because the price is way to high.
Also yay for the free stuff.
Now more download content wouldn’t mind paying 10 or 40 bucks for ps3 games.

krae_man | January 29th, 2009 at 2:26 pm
Free themes and trailers wont make up for the lack of a freely available Demo, the needless 2 month delay and the lack of a downloadable version of the game available day and date with the UMD release.

TheMissingLink | January 29th, 2009 at 2:26 pm
SCEA isn’t abandoning the Playstation Store for the PSP! HOORAY!
Seriously though, I’ll download every single Locoroco goodie you offer. Love it.

Every time I see a locoroco I get that song (from the first level) playing in my head for hours.

Hi everyone,
It’s great to see you are all excited to see the freebies coming your way.
The team have spent a lot of time working on these, I’m sure you will like them.
LocoRoco 2 is really an enjoyable and cheerful PSP game. It is by far my favorite franchise. These items are sure to add to the experience too!

PlasmaGlory | January 29th, 2009 at 6:51 pm
Thank you.

walnoj | January 29th, 2009 at 7:20 pm
That first picture in the post sure looks like a store icon for Loco Roco 2. Will it be just for the DLC, or will the full game also be available for download on the store?
32
big-gunns | January 29th, 2009 at 8:38 pm
FREE is always good. FREE = happy
33
erico316ecw | January 29th, 2009 at 9:28 pm
demo? i think making an expandtion 4 loco 2 like adding more level at a reasonable price on the psp store would be a good testing grounds for dlc/add on 4 games on the psp

Obi_Al_Kenobi | January 29th, 2009 at 10:22 pm
Loco Loco Vato Loco!!!

Ramage | January 30th, 2009 at 5:57 am
One question
will this be available as a DL from the PS Store?
36
Midgetguy | January 30th, 2009 at 6:45 am
I’m loving the wallpapers! I already pre-ordered my copy of Locoroco 2! (But for some reason I never recieved a code for the demo… :( )
But I’m really looking forward to seeing all of the new changes and, of course, hearing my favorite songs again! From watching a few videos on youtube I noticed that there are some “remixes” of the older songs with new parts and such… well, they sound AWESOME!!!!
(One question, is there any way that you could hook me up with a demo for Locoroco 2?)
37
StalkingSilence | January 30th, 2009 at 6:46 am
@”more to come [from PSP PS Store], stay tuned!”
Will you please offer this full game as a download on the PSP PS Store within a reasonable amount of time?
I would love it!
38
Spyroluver88 | January 30th, 2009 at 10:22 am
I CAN’T WAIT!!! I am already singing the yellow LocoRoco’s song in my head!
“Pocoracha Ohberne, pocoroo shickadorugy…”
Too bad I can’t spell any of this…lol
Thanks for the free stuff. I will be taking it all!! Hurry up February 10th!

Spazgadget | January 30th, 2009 at 4:27 pm
Please mark me down as another vote for making this available as a PSN download! Many users would love this method of delivery for future titles.
Very excited for LocoRoco 2 – been playing the first (that I downloaded from PSN!) for weeks getting ready for it.
(Make Resistance a downloadable title too while you’re at it!)
