Yet another bit of great news which looks to be, at least temporarily, exclusive to one location. Sony revealed today that there are now 21 new Playstation One titles available for Playstation certified devices like the Xperia Play or Sony S Tablet. Bad news, it’s only in Japan for right now.
We will wait for your screams of agony to die down before we continue… ready? Great. So another 21 Playstation One titles have been made available on the Japanese Playstation Suite for Playstation Certified devices. These titles are as follows:
Addie no Okurimon: To Moze From Addie – adventure/puzzle curio
Arc the Lad – Japanese RPG
Bealphareth – Japanese RPG
Destruction Derby – already available for all PlayStation-certified devices
Depth – a sound lab which allows you to create dance music. Known as Fluid in everywhere else
I.Q. Intelligent Qube – a puzzler which is known as Kurushi in everywhere else
I.Q. the Final – puzzle sequel known as Kurushi Final in everywhere else
Jet Moto – already available. Known as Jet Rider in everywhere else
Jumping Flash! – already available for European PlayStation-certified devices
Magical Dice Kids – Japanese boardgame
MediEvil – already available for all PlayStation-certified devices
Panekit – vehicular mini-games

PoPoLoCrois – Japanese RPG based on a popular manga series
PoPoRogue – sequel to PoPoLoCrois

Rally Cross – racing game
Rapid Racer – motorboat racing game known as Turbo Prop Racing in North America
Tiny Bullets – Japanese fantasy adventure game
Wild Arms – Japanese RPG set in the US
Xi – a unique puzzler known as Devil Dice outside Japan
Sony has been promising a much bigger push when it comes to content for Playstation certified devices since last year’s Tokyo Game Show when both the official Playstation Suite and SDK were announced. Now it finally looks like it is starting to happen but on a much slower scale then we had hoped, especially with initial releases for a lot of games, as you see in the above list, being location specific for now.
Each game costs ¥600 (US$7.30) although when the release of these titles reaches other areas, the price could change. If this trend keeps up, we may have to move to Japan soon.
