The
PEGI (Pan-European Game Information) website has revealed another upcoming PS1 title that may be coming to the PSN within the next few months.
Klonoa has been rated "3+" for the PlayStation Network. As fans of the quirky platformer (and its PS2 brother,
Klonoa 2) we can't wait to see it hit the PSN Store. With the recent leaks of
Vib Ribbon alongside this, it seems that SCEE are stepping up on keeping the quality level of upcoming PS1 games consistant. Let's have fewer games like
Hardcore 4x4 and more memorable, top shelf PS1 games.
Of course, there's no word on
when this might be hitting the European store, so keep your eyes out. We're expecting to see it sometime in the next eleven and a half months. If we're lucky.

One of the best 2D platformers I've ever played. I have the original game but I'm sure to download it when it comes out.

I actually bought the actual disc of that game last week!
It looks brand new and still in its case (that has one minor crack) with the manual, got it on eBay for $30 when some people have paid as high as $200 in the past.
Sincerely, I would never go for download over the real thing, to avoid DRM, the possibility of it disappearing and all that stuff. And also just for the collecting side of things. But seeing it being released in any way or form is absolutely great news as it shows Namco still remembers it exists outside of random cameo references.
I hope it sells very well, and bring on Klonoa 3!
