To the op. Is this a joke post? Very few PS One Classics cost $9.99. I don't think that any of them deserve that price, but all PSN titles are priced by the developers, not Sony. Most PS One Classics are $5.99, each Crash Bandicoot game for example, which are pretty reasonably priced in my opinion and can be played on your PS3, Vita, PSP, and more than likely your PS4. So playable either at home or on the go. You also listed San Andreas at being $20, where this game is $15, and while still a ripoff, it's priced by the publisher.

A lot of the PS2 Classics that were rereleased in HD are also on the 360. You're saying Sony, Sony, Sony, but over half of the HD rereleases you've listed are also on the 360. The games have multiple titles within each of them and are almost always released at $40. Don't want to buy them at that price, they'll drop in price fairly quickly. You can get DMC HD Collection for $12 on Amazon or ~$20 anywhere else.

What about Nintendo though? They have their virtual console, the games are much older for each of those games, what are their prices in comparison? Regular prices with premium prices after.

PSX $6 - $7
PS2 $10 - $15(San Andreas)
NES $5 - $6
SNES $8 - $9 - $10(Earthbound)
N64 $10 - $12

There are a lot of good NES and SNES games, hell, there are a lot of good games for any console, but the regular prices on the NES are almost that of the PSX. The regular SNES prices are more than the PSX games and the premium cost is almost that of the PSX premium cost. Earthbound is $10 which is more expensive than any other SNES game and also the same price as the premium PSX games.

The N64 was released alongside the PSX. It was released a year afterwards, but they were the same console generation. A standard game is $10, the same price as a premium title for the PSX while the premium is $12. Whose prices are more of a ripoff?

It's my understanding there are 3 games in that collection.

While there are three, only two are playable, the last is a collection of movies.
