Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars Heading To PSP

I'm guessing those touchscreen minigames will have to go as the DS GTA heads to PSP.

Here's what it looked like on the DS.

Rockstar announced plans to bring Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars to the PSP this morning. The game was previously released on the Nintendo DS, and you can safely expect that the touchscreen minigames found in the original release will obviously get replaced with something else.

The company also claims that it's not a straight port. From the release:
Specifically built for the PSP platform with upscaled widescreen graphics, enhanced lighting and animation; and including all-new story missions; this version of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars will take full advantage of the power of the PSP system.
All-new story missions, you say? OK, perhaps you've piqued my interest. The game will be out this fall, both on traditional UMD and as a newfangled digital download for all you PSPgo early adopters. Now I'm left wondering... will this follow the previous GTA PSP games and eventually end up on the PS2, as well?
