Yeah, I was hoping it would since the PSP screen was not very friendly to it, but then they failed to put it up though Soul Reaver got on there.

So I updated my Vita last night, and I didn't see hide nor hair of PSOne Classics anywhere; no new icon, no category in the Store, nothin'. I even tried going into my download history list - in the Store - and it said that FFVII couldn't be downloaded on a Vita.
Okay, what am I missing here?

The store hasn't been updated yet. For now you need to transfer from PS3.
It does seem picky about WHERE you're touching, try (sigh) touching where the game's actually displayed rather than the boundaries assuming you aren't using zoom/full screen.

I do need to get soul reaver. Anyone have an opinions on FFVI?
Greatest game ever, except this version, which is annoying because of hard-coded load times. Buy it on Wii VC or GBA or something.

It also has the Faerie (slightly different from the Sprite, mostly the same) and the Nose Demon (basically just the demon familiar with a big nose made to look like a popular Japanese celebrity). It ALSO fills the screen a bit better, has both languages for audio and has a Maria that is the best version that is playable (she's based on the original Rondo Maria instead of just a bunch of randomness like in the Saturn version).
Frankly, It's not hard at all to unlock it in DXC. It's just an item in the wall on a stage, probably not more than 30 minutes tops.

Not sure if old, but Legend of Mana does NOT work via Content Manager. This was not bought through Plus.

I would agree. I just never played the PSX version.
Do we have any idea when SCEA is going to roll out more games for direct download? I own a vita but not PS3 and would love to play FFIX. Unless it is going to come out soon, my plan is to finally say screw it and create an EU account.
Bought a 4GB card on Amazon's current lightening deal, will buy PSN points off Play Asia. Probably will get Peace Walker too.

Back again with the "must transfer from a PS3" bullshit, FUCK, SONY!!
Totally worthless.

Exaggerate much? They're adding all of these games to the Vita in weekly intervals or you can just copy them from a PS3 right now- you get them grandfathered in, too.
I try.

Any pictures of Vagrant Story running on the Vita? How does it look?

I've not read through the entire thread, but from what I can see, Sony have done the unthinkable, and locked certain games to specific regions.
I say this because there are games clearly missing from the NA list that Sony posted as compatable on the EU blog, such as blood omen and vagrant story...
Wtf.

Welp...most of the ps1 games I have are not compatible...including Chrono Cross which I was waiting for ps1 games on Vita to play for the first time.

Vagrant story works on NA vita
Yeah, SCEE and SCEA and SCEJ are completely separate entities in terms of digital sales. It's not surprising, and region disparity isn't "unthinkable," considering how much regions play into all consoles these days.
Games will be added and grandfathered in.
And look, half the reason you were upset isn't even true. It's a good day.
I'm waiting for a remake on the 3DS.
Did they ever add more officially supported PSP games after enabling BC?
Nah, they'll just remake FFIV again. And again and again and again and again.

Ok, the reason I thought vagrant story was mising was due to the first page of the thread.
I understand that there is a difference between regions, but we are talking about games that are actually available in those regions anyway ( or game now lol)

Yep. Sucks you need a ps3 but I'm guessing most Vita owners have one any ways.

Vagrant story is listed as compatible on the first post of this thread too

Very dissapointed that I can't use the analog stick with FFVII.. Oh well.
Yeah, the bases are covered in the first post as soon as someone posts a confirmation or issue here. It's all in my first post.
I'm expecting a bunch of other games to start working in a few weeks, just like the PSP, which now has pretty much everything working on Vita. Crash & Spyro alone are head-scratchers.

Is bust a move or bust a groove (whatever it is called in Japan) there?

Can anyone tell me how to manage PS1 memory cards with the VITA, I have memory cards that are named after games that I had on PS3 and during the transfer, everything got mixed up.
Is there a page with info on how you can manage all of that?

I don't get the release plan on this at all. I hope this doesn't turn into Virtual Console or anything, where this stuff is eeked out 9 at a time for weeks on end.
Release the whole batch, create a marketing/promotion plan that promotes 9 of those titles every week. That way you get the people that splurge on day 1 and the people that need to be reminded it exists week in and week out.

really?
maybe uh...you could just transfer them from the ps3 to vita even if they're "installed" on the ps3?
At the very least, they could put the bubbles in a folder. That Valkyria Chronicles DLC bundle was damaging. It takes a long time to get scrolled down to my games list.
But yeah, bubbles are dumb. You don't need bubbles to transfer to PSP right?

Oh, my God. Thank you so much for this, based Sony
Someone said that you didn't need to in the past, but as of a recent update, you do need bubbles even for PSP.
Asinine.
seriously? sigh..
I don't think you can even "install" PSP games on PS3 any more.
