Japanese PS Store continues to expand with more PS1 games

The Japanese PSP Store was updated today with a slew of new PS1 classics (isn't that an oxymoron?). The service, which is yet unavailable in Europe or America, continues to expand in Japan. Here's a list of the games in today's updates:

Sanyo Pachinko Paradise
Sanyo Pachinko Paradise 2
Alundra
XII [sai] JUMBO
Popolocrois
Hanafuda Graffiti: Koi Monogatari
Echo Night 2
Kings Field III

Granted, most of these are pachinko games, but we can't help but be jealous of our Japanese friends. Sony, don't you want our money? Release some PS1 games, and let us download it directly onto the PSP.

Alundra. Man that game was great. And tough. Great because it was tough. Some of the hardest puzzles I've ever faced. I'd love to play that again.

I hope when/if those games appear in America that they appear on the PS3 version of PSN as well as the PSP version of it. I would like to play those games on both consoles.

Sony you don't like my money? Why can't I buy Alundra again? My list of games for PS1 that Japan has that I want grows longer and longer.

Sony haet USA. :(...

*sigh* Well, at least sales are jammin' in Japan, where Sony caters to their customers with downloads, colors and accessories we never see on these shores...

Hey Sony - we count, too! You shouldn't ignore us just because you've sold more here than any other country. In fact, if you just treated us as well as your Japanese customers, your sales might be doing better!
