As much as I love the PS1 (probably my favorite console ever) I don't want this to happen... Don't get me wrong, I love it that we can play the old PS1 games on PS3 and PS Vita but re-releasing the PS1 console as a whole would damage the legacy of the console imo. They should just release all the PS1 games as digital on PS4 just like they did on PS3 because that's already enough.

Still waiting for Mega Man Legends 1-2 and The Misadventures Of Tron Bonne...

You can go to Goodwill and buy a perfectly good PS1 for less than $10 and most of their games are in the $10-20 range anyway. Hell even the pricier ones only cost the price of a typical new release. There's no need

Still though, once you've bought that system and 3 games you've already gone over the price of what Nintendo are asking for the NESmini, not to mention that getting a console with 30 games of the calibur of stuff like Castlevania, Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy 7 or like... Suikoden would set you back hundreds if not thousands.

heh... no actual auctions up there for Pal Suikoden 1... could be time to sell my copy?



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

No. there should be another option on the poll.

"No, they are more likely to create software based emulation, release it on PSN and sell the games again."



Hmm, pie.

Why? They are the same games, how would a plug-and-play PS1 hurt its reputation?

This. I was going to say this but looks like quoting this post is enough.

When I was collecting older PS1 games a little while ago i stopped when I realised the only ones left I really wanted were the out of print (non-PSN) rare PAL games. Suikoden, the Discworld games and Legend of Dragoon being a few of them.

Got myself Rival Schools for £15. Bargain weirdly.



Hmm, pie.

Ha, true.

However, one of the other project might be this.

See a lot of "That's just silly" and "No need for that"

You know the same people would be first in line to buy it and praise Sony for it.

Not trying to offend, but lets be honest here
