'''''The Sims 2 (PSP)''''' is the first of [[The Sims series]] for the PlayStation Portable system. It takes place in [[Strangetown]], but unlike the GBA and DS versions, the PSP version is based on the Windows version; the graphics are similar. This is the only PSP ''Sims'' game that is '''minigame''' as well as '''mission''' based. (''[[The Sims 2: Pets (console)|The Sims 2: Pets]]'' is not mission based). It can be played on the PlayStation Vita only by digital download.

It could be purchased from the PlayStation Network and downloaded on the both Sony's PSP and PS Vita handheld video game console. However, this game has been removed from the store in the 2014 by EA as The Sims 2 is no longer supported. Luckily, people whose purchased game before the discontinuation on the original UMD or from the PSN can still play/download the game on the PSP or PS Vita (digital only). On the PS Vita game has enabled double texture filtering and scaling to the HD resolution.


''The Sims 2'' features 6 minigames (the other 2 are skill building and socializing). Players can only have 3 Sims per Memory Stick regardless of capacity, and 4 saves per Sim.
