Title: The PS3 Store thread.
Post by: schild on April 25, 2007, 03:03:04 AM
Yea, I just started a thread for this. Consider this a Calling All Our Asian Friends Post:

Gamefront says Sony announced these titles to hit PS Store (tomorrow it seems) in Famitsu.

- Arc the Lad II (Sony)
- Philosoma (Sony)
- Love Game's: Wai Wai Tennis Plus (Hamster)
- Jigsaw World (Nippon Ichi)
- Yaku Tou: Noroi no Game (Idea Factory)
- Jiisan 2 Tabi Bikkuri: CG Mukashibanashi (Idea Factory)
- Ikasama Mahjong (Idea Factory)
- Lunatic Dawn III (Artdink)
- A5: A Ressha de Gyouko u 5 (Artdink)
- Metal Slug X (SNK Playmore)
- Real Bout Garou Densetsu (SNK Playmore)
- Bakumatsu Roman: Gekka no Kenshi [Last Blade] (SNK Playmore)
- Garou Densetsu Wild Ambition [Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition] (SNK Playmore)
- Kenkaku Ibunroku Yomigaerishi Soukou no Yaiba Samurai Spirits Shinshou [Samurai Shodown: Warriors Rage] (SNK Playmore)

OMGOMGOMOMGOGMGOM

Who wants to help a brother get the Garou Densetsus, Last Blade, and Samurai Showdown? Eh eh eh, you know you want to.

Man. That shit needs to hit America. Holy unacceptable. Anyway, I know we've got people here with JPY PS3s and the JPY accounts. Can anyone post the pricing, perhaps some paypaling is in order. Maybe 5 people could split the costs? I'm sure they come out to $20-$30 together.

Man am I glad I've got joysticks for the PS3.

Edit: Obviously, for future store releases, just drop them in this thread.

SNK stuff is supposed to come to the States.

I have my doubts about Wai Wai Tennis though ;).

According to IGN a lot of those games are PSP only because PS3 backward compatility is almost non-existent. Less than 10% playable? lame.

I expect them to fare poorly in any case. PS3 is the power-gamers console, and only a tiny subset of them are into retro-gaming. As an attempt to cover up the lack of new titles for the PSP it should do much better.

Who you callin' a tiny subset?

Remember, it's not the size that matters, it's who uses it.

Here I thought the PSP was finally coming into it's own.

It always take me awhile to get into handhelds, but even I want one now.

I guess it also depends on if you consider PS2 games retro.

Not really, when the target system is the pretty much the same thing.

[EDIT]

Err...Referring to the PSP. Not the PS3, of course.

It's being reported that Sony hiked up the prices a little, from 525 yen to 600 for Playstation games.

Wait, these are PS1 games? Meh. Don't care then.

Spectral Force (Idea Factory)
R-Types (Irem)
A.IV. Evolution Global (Artdink)
Resident Evil Directors Edition (Capcom)
Bishibashi Special (Konami)
Arc the Land (Sony)
Ore no Shi wo Koete Yuke (Sony)
Gunners Heaven (Sony)
Ganbare Morikawa-kun Ni-go (Sony)
Marl Oukoku no Ningyou Hime (Nippon Ichi)
Tekken 2 (Bandai Namco)

That is the list of PS1 games that will load to the harddrive and play int he PS3. Marl's Kingdom (N1) is a blow to the gut. But if someone could nab R-Types (THE BEST R-TYPE!), that would rock!
