PS1 graphics look like utter crap on a TV, that is why I prefer to play them on the PSP.

Depends on the game, but generally they look better on CRT tv's. On HDTV's they generally don't look very good. I don't know I've been playing PS1 games on tv's since I got my PS1 way back in 1997, so I'm used to it. I have my SNES, Genesis and Sega Saturn hooked up to the CRT as well. They all look good.

I never could get into PS1 games on the tiny PSP screen, like I said earlier.

I don't want to play FF7 again, just because it's aged so badly. I still have my 1997 launch copy. Something like FF Tactics though looks great.

Yeah, I know that , but I wont have a CRT TV just to play PSone games :S.  I got rid of those TVs years ago and replace them with HDTVs.   Everything looks phenomenal on them with the exception of PS1 games (PS2 games look tolerable); and I have more space for other things considering most CRT tvs are fat.

When I want to play any PS1 game I do it on my PSP.   I could do it on my PC via emulation, but it is not the same experience as being on my couch or bed playing, that is why I would like to be able to play them on the PSVITA :D.

You said that PS1 games look terrible on a TV though, when in fact they don't. When played on a TV they were designed for (everybody had CRT tv's when the PS1 was out!), then they look pretty damn good.

My CRT isn't only used for PS1 games, I also played PS2 games on it as well as SNES/Genesis/Saturn games like I said earlier. CRT is the best unless you get one of those pricey upscale converters. ( http://retrogaming.hazard-city.de/ ) I still want to get a Micomsoft Framemeister myself.

When I want to play PS1 games, I play them lying back and looking at them on my nice CRT tv. (Sony Wega CRT TV's were the best! ) The PSP just didn't do it for me and that's one reason why I got rid of mine.
