PSA: PSVita now supports all digital PS1 and PSP games

[Icemage]

Looks like Sony finally figured out all of the kinks in the PS Vita emulator, as all titles for PSP and PS1 appear to now function and are directly downloadable to the PS Vita (no more need for PS3 side-loading, yay!).

Nice.

Too bad I don't have a vita :/ (Crisis Core was never made available as a download was it?)

So I can now get Persona 1-4, FFI-X-2, the Tomba games, Valkyria Chronicles 2, and now all of the good Core Design era Tomb Raider games on one portable? I'll be in my bunk.

I don't think so. Still have my PSP-phat somewhere and a copy of that.

The only game that I would buy again would probably be Popolocrois. Love the stylised gfx and sfx. Story was okeee too Just can't get "Gamy gamy missile" out of my head for some reason o_0!

I'll have a look at what PSP games I can DL later, thx for the heads up btw Icemage

So I can directly download MGS and Castlevania Chronicles? Finally.

Did they put up a list? I think Blood Omen had a compatibility issue with Vita. That was the only other I was missing from the PSX side of things on Vita, aside from a couple throwaway PSP games I wasn't really missing anyway.

And yes, Crisis Core and also KH BBS were never put up digitally. SE was weird about digital support for PSP, some of that weirdness has continued to 3DS - KH3D, Heroes of Ruin and Theatrhythm aren't on eShop, but Bravely Default is.

Carter: Most of the titles I listed have been available for the Vita for a while. Still it's nice to know that every game on the store is now compatible.

Those Newly Added PSP & PS1 Games Are No Longer PS Vita Compatible

I'm wondering it is was some licensing issue that caused them to pull the games.

There wasn't any announcement about the games being made available so part of me is wondering if they were waiting until E3 for it.

A lot of the games made "available" are transferable to the Vita via the PS3. Sucks for people without a PS3 I guess.

Sony and Nintendo both really need to be more forward thinking on this sort of thing before they get third parties on board with it. They nerd more specific language in thier deals otherwise the likes of SE and Konami just act shocked people want to play MGS or Xenogears all these years later.

need?

Re: PSA: PSVita now supports all digital PS1 and PSP games

need?

Yes, "need." Note how "e" and "r" are next to one another on keyboard and autocorrect does not catch a difference between "need" and "nerd."

You have caught me and corrected me.

Now you must pay penance by bowing down to the dictionary Gods while this entire joke falls flat on its face with a tedious inevitability.
