Pretty easy to see what current Vita games are avaiable, but I was wondering what their offerings on old PSP and PSone games look like? Have a lot of older games made it to the PSN for download? I had a PSP but sold it awhile back and there are a couple of games I wouldn't mind getting if they were available for download...I've only been able to really look once and that's when it first came out and the offerings were a lot slimmer than I imagined. I keep finding sites telling me what games I can download to a PS3 and then transfer, but alas, I am PS3less :D. Just wondering if Sony seems keen on releasing these or is content on me picking up another PS console at some point .

For the PSone game I'm not quite sure since PS1 classics should be out around August-September. So I can't comment on that.

As for the PSP games I can reccomend Persona 3 Portable, DJ MAX Portable 3 (if you can deal with K-Pop), Disgaea 1 & 2, and plenty of other games. I also believe they released both PSP GTA's on the marketplace too recently. I can also recommend some Vita games if your interested.

It's unclear whether all of the current PSOne Classics will be available for the Vita once they are added to the marketplace, but FF7 and Tomb Raider were two games that were mentioned at the E3 briefing. I think we'll eventually see all of them on there if not at PSOne Vita marketplace launch.

There are a lot of PSP games available for download. I would say all of them are there, but I don't know if that's true. It probably isn't. But a lot of them are. Which games are you interested in? I could tell you if they are there I guess.

I don't think that every PSP game is on there quite yet *looks at VC2 sitting on shelf* and some you can just do the PS3 to Vita transfer trick like MGSPW because they're not on the Vita store yet for some weird reason.

From what I saw in an interview a month back they'd only be releaseing twenty-something PSone classics at launch due to them needed to be tested and approved for the emulation and whatnot (just like the PSP games). If you want a link I can do a little digging for it.

PSP games I wouldn't mind playing- LocoRoco games, Jeanne d'arc, FF4 complete collection, tactics ogre, Final fantasy tactics.

PSone games- final fantasy 7 and tactics (if not a psp verison), crash bandicoot, syphon filter, but I guess we won't know those yet.

Jeanne D'Arc and Pangya are two games I'd love to have on my Vita, but given that they're not available on PSN even for the PSP doesn't bode well for them.

Yeah, I saw some Loco Roco games, the FF4 complete, Tactics Ogre and FF Tactics War of the Lions all on there. Can not comment on Jean D'Arc but DJ-Lae says it isn't on there so it must not be atm.

FF7 seems to be pretty much confirmed for the PSOne Classics.

Yeah the PSN store will be down til like midnight tonight, so we can't check right now.

Are you in Europe? Don't know about that region, but in NA Jeanne D'Arc is on PSN. Not sure if it's on the Vita store (can't check due to maintenance), but it works on the system.

No, Canada. Did they add it recently? I ended up picking up the UMD version a year or two back as there was no PSN release announced at the time, but I never did hear anything and assumed it was never added.
