I would recommend Power Stone, but I don't know if it's any good on the PSP.

everybody loves Patapon, but his little brother is poor talked about. I can assure you that behind the simple controls there's a deep and involving games. Also both my wife and my daughter like it and that means always something good.
Already mentioned, ZHP: Unlosing Ranger VS *Darkdeath Evilman* is an awesome, underrated roguelike game:
Oh what I would give for a sequel.
Did you play Guided Fate Paradox?

It's the official spiritual sequel for ps3, different story, characters and setting, same monsters, equips and gameplay.Why, I've never even heard of Guided Fate Paradox. What am I missing out on?
There was a Carnage Heart game for the PSP!?!?!?!? I really, really, really need to find a copy of that. Had no idea at all!

A puzzle game with a great learning curve, the easy levels are just right to get you in the game, then it goes to really really difficult challenges if you dare. Also you can customize your avatar with strange shapes, i enjoyed it but i don't know why.
Brandish
Everyone please run to XSEED HQ and beg them to localize this masterpiece.
*Hugs Japanese retail copy*
Oh yes I forgot all about that. I own it too... the Japanese slows me down a bit, but the gameplay's fantastic. It's the best interpretation of Brandish by far, and the music's excellent.

ZHP seems to be more inspired though.
Wild Arms XF got some poor reviews (has a 68% average on Gamerankings) but it's seriously great. Cool FFT-esque class system (with lots of weird classes) and a great soundtrack. The main complaint that reviewers had was that you actually had to change up your party & strategy from situation to situation since they give you lots of different goals besides just "Kill anything" like avoid being detected or escape the map within X turns. Yes, that's right; there were actually reviews that complained that a Strategy/RPG required actual Strategy.

Some great choices in this thread, keep 'em coming folks!
I'd personally support Jeanne D'arc as well for the list. It's criminally underrated for what it is, and a solid choice for any PSP owner. It also looks really nice when uprendered in PPSSPP where it's begun to work properly (the chracters were previously invisible until recent builds)

What kind of hardware you need for that?
Get Mana Khemia off PSN, it sucks on UMD because of the bad load times but the download doesnt have that problem. Fantastic JRPG, really great battle system, story and characters
What about Wild Arms XF?

In what universe are Valkyrie Profile & Tekken underrated games?Tekken Dark Resurrection, YuGiOh! Tag Force and Valkyrie Profile imo.
Prinny is a must-have.
If you're looking for underrated, I'd have to go with Jeanne D'arc and Crimson Gem Saga.
Two games that I wish had been released on the EU PSN store (along with God Eater)
Anything I'd recommend has already been recommended so I'll just throw these two minis at you.
