No mention of PSOne improvements over the PSP's POP system which basically allowed you to play any PS classic? No graphical enhancement? No network play? No mention of complete support from every PSN classic game?
...Alright then.

So they are going to be released as "Vita compatible" one by one at the same incredibly slow pace that PSOnce Classics are released on the PSN store in the first place? They really dropped the ball on this. How hard would it have been to just borrow the PS1 emulator from the PSP. It's Sony. They have all the source code and SPH001 bins or whatever that they need.
It makes you wonder if Sony purposely held back PSOne compatibility so that people wouldn't instantly realize that Final Fantasy 7 - 9 are 4gb each and that an overpriced 32gb card is pretty much required.
I ride an NYC subway and game with no internet. In other words, "FUCK APPS or othe WIFI/3G Bullshit. I have an Iphone, home computer, home media computer, Ipad, wife's laptop, etc. other ways to access the internet (p.s. vita browser sucks). Please let me download ps one classics as they are easy to bang out on my 1 hour plus commute each way. My real gaming is done via pc or ps3 in my apt. THANKS!!!
Seeing as how I can play all my PSone games on my PS3... How bout you give PS2 some fucking support? You know? Until Rockstar makes a new GTA for the Vita, it'd be nice to play Vice City on it. Give me SOMETHING that isn't playable on my PS3.
It's about time, but I'm also waiting on some PS2 support. Hopefully we get that in the near-future.

This! So many great PS2 games that I want to play on my Slim PS3, like Def Jam FFNY or Persona 4.

It's funny, because at last E3 PSOne support was supposed to be AT LAUNCH. IN JAPAN. Six months ago? And now they're telling us it'll be up to 3 more months before we can a feature ADVERTISED AS A SELLING POINT AT LAUNCH?
I am disappointed. This means there will be now booger smearing and system throwing.
(Also: FFVII ~ 1.3GB, FFVIII ~ 1.8GB, FFIX ~ 1.4GB, just saying.)

I'm not touching my copy of Vagrant Story until this becomes a reality (which should be in about three months, as promised).
"In fact, it was one of the main reasons I bought a Vita, and I was started to get fairly impatient regarding any sort of announcement!"
If you spent $250 so you can play PS1 games on the go, you're an idiot. No, really. You're an idiot. You can get a PSP Slim for $130 to play a full library of classics legally or illegally. The Xperia Play (which is free on Verizon and AT&T right now) can be rooted to play any PS1 ROM in existence and would completely replace the phone you're already paying for service on. You can find an open source GP2X for $100 these days and run every classic emulator under the sun on it without any trouble.
For those ignorant to the situation, in order for Sony to enable you to play these games on a new piece of hardware, they all need to be relicensed from the owners, one by one. And in order to make sure no self entitled "homebrew" hackers open the piracy floodgates on Vita and ruin it like they did the PSP, they need to make sure whatever emulator they use doesn't have any "unintended features".
So calm down. Really really.

@ctg Well if they valued their customers they could have done all that before releasing the console, and not months after that.

Thankfully, I didn't! I have 8 Vita games. I just noted that this was "one" of the main reasons I bought one. Also, I have a PSP -- I just want digital Vita games, PSP games, and PSone classics all in one place.

I really hope you guys who are clamoring for ps2 support aren't the guys complaining about the card prices.. cause come on, you guys do know, ps2 games = lots of space.. or at least I'm hoping you do..
