    weird cause I'm only seeing the same 10-15 every time I go to target/walmart.
    gamestop maybe has more...but I don't go there very often, if at all.

    happy happy joy joy happy happy joy joy

    I realize all you dudes that have been on board since launch are hungry for this, I've only been on board for the last month and I'm psyched too. l wonder if they're still going to drip feed the psone classics like previously mentioned, or just go full force with them. The last time we heard anything regarding it I believe was from early july?

    stuff like that really makes you see the potential for the games on this system. I always feel like I should be using the rear touch panel on games, yet very few of them support it so far. hopefully more devs will start finding ways to sneak in the functionality, and make it relevant to the gameplay.

    The more I see of AC3:L, the more attractive the game looks. I dont think I am going to get it this year though. The game looks way better than most game spinoffs out there. Way too many games are hitting with not enough time/money for all of them. :(

    update today enables psone classics!

    though there's only a few titles available through purchase on the vita itself, apparently a lot of people are reporting that you can buy a vast majority of the psone games on your PS3 and transfer them to your vita, and they work fine.

    known issue games though are chrono trigger and spyro. might have to wait for official support for those guys.

    Yeah, I'm thinking about getting some game that way, just have to hook up my ps3 to my ethernet router so that I can get faster speeds.

    None of the PSone games I own can be downloaded by the Vita (in the US, they're all available according to the Euroland list) and I don't own a PS3 :( 

    I was really hoping to play some RE2 and MGS.

    Cool, all I need is a prepaid PSN card so I can play R-Types and Gradius Collection on my Vita.

    Love that the update now allows me to use buttons on the Vita's home menu! :D

    didn't they take the r-type games off the network due to irem going belly up or whatever?

    Yeah. For THE TIME BEING, you have to use a PS3 to dl/install the vast majority of psone classics. I'm sure this will change in time, but it is what it is right now. There's still a few titles available from the vita psn store but that's about it.

    started playing FFIX and Parasite Eve 2 last night, both look really good on vita. I really like the emulation menu too. being able to upscale the picture, enable analog sticks, use fast disc read speed, and turn off that damn smoothing filter (might be nice for some, I just like the sharp pixel graphics instead) are really cool options for me.

    if you're not sure how to access the emulation menu yet, just hold your finger down on the touch screen til it pops up.

    Wish it allowed it for all applications. Especially the PSN store.

    Also, bought Madden 13 for this. I'm a huge Madden fan, and while I know it isn't stellar, I'm hoping the kinks will get ironed out. Besides, in the middle of a hurricane, it's nice to have something to do on a portable system when you don't have power.
