    For that much you could get a Vita TV that can emulate the full PSX library. Or like 5 PSPs that can do the same. Or a used Vita. Sony seems to have dropped the ball here, I'm not sure who they expect to buy this. There is the convenience factor but I'm pretty sure all these games can be purchased legitimately and conveniently on the PSN for less than $100 if you already have a Sony console.

    (I mean, it probably wouldn't have had the Orbital or Chemical Brothers tracks that the PAL/Saturn versions had, but omitting the game entirely just seems weird)

    The Japanese console gets Parasite Eve, but not the US version? Raw deal.

      Looks like a lot of licensing issues. THPS alone will probably never appear as it's original release for music licensing issues alone.
