Gotta download it directly from you download list on the Vita. You know the one. The one that you can't sort in any way. You'll have to scroll around to find it.
Download list, as mentioned by the post above.
Yeah, this is probably important enough to keep in mind to merit doubling down on.

No, content manager on Vita doesn't see it on my PS3.
That did the trick, thanks!

I've read that it's not that great. Good driving Sim, poor modes and "GT atmosphere".
But if someone else wants to weigh in, I would love a solid portable Sim racer.

The only one I own is Battlefront 2, but that's one game that's always worked on Vita for me (EU)

That looks fun
I always just go into the shop and ask if they will apply it for me. I don't have the patience to do it myself.
Blasphemy
CTR is the best cart racer (maybe MKDS) and MK64 is the worst cart racer.
Crash Team Racing was probably my favorite game when I was a youngin. It's my favorite kart racer, so glad to finally have it and all the other Crash games on Vita!
And I will finally play through all the Spyro games as well.

Well damn, I don't think I can put off getting a Vita much longer. I really want an OLED though. Are there any retailers selling the old model for under $200?
GameStop has refurbished ones for $180 and new ones for $200. There are bundles at $200 but it will probably vary which version Vita they are.

Man, it seems like everyday there's more things Vita related that's happening that makes my purchase of one last year more worth it!

So how are people managing PS1 games without L2/R2/L3/R3 buttons? I know you can use the back panels or the analogues but it seems odd without the regular buttons there.

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.

Got it basically like brand new 104.99 and others have gotten lower prices as well during cowboom sales and promotions.

Im wondering the same thing.
But please Sony, dont go back on that! Thats great news!!
$170. Had to get another one yesterday because I lost my last one and I had three games coming in the mail. :[
Truth.
I still view MK64 as the worst sequel ever made.
SMK took over my life, and its eventual next gen sequel was one of the major reasons I bought an N64. The feeling of abject disappointment when finally playing MK64 was only ever matched by how I felt when walking out of the cinema after seeing Phantom Menace.
Burnout Legends froze while scrolling through unlocked cars. hit PS button, quit game.
Proceeded to start Promethus demo to show someone how terrible it was.
Froze before it could even start, ps button produced ( - ) icon in corner.
Turned off vita and it just kept looping the powering off icon.
Eventually had to force restart by holding down power button for 30 seconds.
Be wary of the games not officially supported

Back panels for analogs? Not sure what you mean there.
When playing PS1 games, you can set whatever to whatever. So, for example in Symphony of the Night, I set L2 and R2 to left and right on the right analog stick. You can swap things around however you want.
Also, did PS1 games have L3/R3? Wasn't that not a thing until the PS2?
It has always seems like a massive oversight that Sony didn't give the Vita L2/R2 buttons. Not only for perfect PSone compatibility, but for remote play for PS3 and PS4 as well.
I *hate* the rear touchscreen with a passion, so depending on the game, either map L2/R2 to the right stick or front touch pad. In some games that fine, in other games, it's a huge barrier.
Why oh why didn't they copy the Wii's Classic Controller, and make L2/R2 small buttons just in from the main shoulder buttons? It's not ideal, but a million times better than having to map them to touchscreens.
PS1 did have clickable sticks. Can't remember any games atm that used them maybe Ape Escape?

That's not an official Classic Controller
can tell by grips, logo on front, and weird covered up hole on top (official had cables come out of bottom which makes it extra weird)

I just realized there was a PSP port of Gun back in the day

PS1 had L3/R3 but it wasn't used very often.
By 'back panels' I mean the back touchpad. If I remember correctly each of the corners of the pad could be set up as its own button so that could be a way to get around the no L2/R2/clickable analog sticks thing.
my typos are seriously crazy ><
I meant apply the screen protector
hmm... but I did not purchase it from them
especially the HORI one (got it from Amazon)still waiting for the Glass Screen Protector for HTC M8 to arrive... it will fit the Vita

Even if the one he pictured isn't the offical one. I just looked at mine (it's the earlier model of Classic Controller for Wii) and it's side by side awesomness.

I skipped the flash sale because I already own retail PS1 copies of most Crash/Spyro games and didn't think it was necessary to buy them purely for my PS3.
I'm devastated that I could have had them on my Vita for 99 cents each.

I'm using the Muramasa: Rebirth skin + screen protector that came with the collector's edition and it looks freakin sweet. I absolutely love it. I was nervous I was going to screw it up, but I somehow got it on there perfectly lined up with no bubbles or anything. I'd post a picture but don't feel like getting my phone right now. Anyway, best of luck for you! Maybe you'll get it on there no problems.
And to stay somewhat on topic, I really hope this whole thing is either A) an E3 announcement that slipped or B) something to do with PlayStation Now. Sony giveth and Sony taketh away, but hopefully this is just a giveth.

It was the first result in Google images.
Here you go.
My point still stands though, The second set of shoulder buttons are in the same place.

I know how the CC looks I was just being observant.
Really not sure why sony didn't do it unless they didn't want backlash from copying Nintendo.
Not that the MadCatz Retrocon didn't do it first anyways... (seriously why isn't the Vita like THIS controller)

No.
There's no championship mode. All you can do is race stock cars on tracks with parameters you select.
The cars you can buy is semi-random, depending on the day.
One of the problems with GT was that always some cars were simple better than others, which often meant that winning a race just meant picking the best car. But at least when you customize them you could take a bad car and make it decent. But this, a car is what its factory specs are.
Graphically it's okay, but there are fewer opponents. Somehow Sumo Digital managed to completely port the Toca series to the PSP, complete with 20 opponents (with Driver AI, no less) and damage, but Sony couldn't manage a decent port.
BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!

It's actually not a button. If you press it down, it opens up a hole in the back. I guess in order to clip the controller to something, I dunno really. I thought it was a button as well for a while.
It's to attach accessories. I had a clip that would combine the Wii controller, and the CC like this:
