The issues as they've said before is that they have to test the games again to make sure they work well with the Vita's PSP emulator along with making sure the licenses are up-to-date so that they can be sold on the Vita. The rumor I've heard is that they only have a few people doing the testing, so the process of doing that isn't as fast as it could be. Looking at the OP, games that are green are tested and licensed for sale on Vita, blue are tested without updated licenses, and red are not tested yet.

It also probably helps when the publisher is involved in the process to make sure everything is moving as smoothly as possible.

Me & My Katamari works fine, and benefits greatly from a second analog stick. Might actually finish it now.

This is the main one I want that's not available. Really want to try it out with dual analog sticks.

lol Sony probably wants us to buy Burning Skies first. I suspect Retribution it'll be up in the near future. Still the Vita game is pretty good but I know when I'm done with it I'll be itching for more portable Resistance.

I really hope they get Motorstorm: Arctic Edge up soon, especially since it popped up in NA just recently for PSP (not Vita compatible yet).

You are ASSUMING they will make the second stick work with the game. Don't get your hopes up

How would it not? It's a basic feature of the PSP emulator.

I was figuring it was this. They had a full blown Vita game coming and didn't want folks jumping for the cheaper thing while pushing it.

One hopes. I heard some PSN stores still have it on there. boooooo

So, I see that two games on this list are playable through the PS3 by transferring them onto the Vita. The problem is that I don't have a PS3.... Can anyone give me advise in what I should be doing or if there's any way i can download them? I already purchased them back in 2009.

I'm really confused on whats going on with PSone games. Do we get them all 'this summer', or is it just small packages at a time?

It's not clear.

It seemed like a trickle to me.

They'd better not make us repurchase these.

They didn't charge again for the PSP games, so I doubt that they're changing that for PS1 games.
