Six PS1 games hit Japanese PSN

- Atelier Elie
- Crash Bash (aka Crash Bandicoot Carnival)
- Dezaemon Kids!
- Master of Monsters: Disciples of Gaia
- Metal Gear Solid
- Pro Mahjong Kiwame Plus II
That makes: one tactical espionage thriller in MGS, one RPG in Atelier Elie, a strategy adventure in Master of Monsters, Mahjong Plus II speaks for itself, Crash Bash is a party game, and Dezaemon Kids! is some sort of art title for children. Pretty nice list; however, MGS is top dog this week.

Man . Japanese gamers get so awesome titles over the PSN . When will we ever see an update list like this ?

When indeed! The most recent PS1 classic on the American PSN came on February 7th!!!

I have faith that we'll get MGS... one day.

This doesn't make any sense...America has to be a bigger video game market, so why do the Japanese get 10x the number of games? Do Japanese companies not like money? How come the American developers aren't pushing for more releases through the PS-Store?

Lol,
Someone did not Google/youtube a game.

Dezaemon Kids! is not a kids art tool. It's a vert/horz shooter maker. Dezaemon+ was released on PSN a few weeks back.

The title of the game in the video is called Gunslinger.

@.@ this is a weird game.

Duh japan will get more updates like this, PSP is the highest selling console in japan, sony is from japan, I mean what would we think if XBOX released everything good in japan that would be rediculous! Sony + Japan = Maximum profits, use your heads!

No the DS is the highest selling console in Japan, then the PS2. The PSP is above all 7th gen consoles. Also, PSN has historically bombed in Japan(they have an aversion to credit cards). To be fair the PSP has sold more in North America than any other region(we have the more gamers than the other regions).

I think I might be picking up Mahjong Plus II. I"ve been in the mood for a good solitaire mahjong title for awhile now, and I'm getting tired of flash-based versions. Does anyone have any experience with this one?
dabamf @ Mar 21st 2008 2:02PM
I want CTR on the PSN!!!! I played the hell out of that game.
Maninatrunk77 @ Mar 21st 2008 2:18PM
HELL YEAH! I LOVE THAT GAME!!! I seriously put like 5000 hours in that game!
dabamf @ Mar 21st 2008 2:26PM
When I got it at the time it had to live up to SNES Mario Kart standards, which it did by leaps and bounds!

We used to get 1 every 2 weeks, and we haven't gotten one in like a month. What's up Sony? Finally ran out of Crash Bandicoot and Jet Motos?

If we dont get MGS, i promise to trade in my PS3...
...you think Sony bought it?
richard @ Mar 21st 2008 5:44PM
I'd just like to see some RE titleshit the store (I don't want "biohazard, I want FREAKIN RESIDENT EVIL!!!! ...) but I guess I'll settle for biohazard until then, and I'll keep burning out those ps1 disk......

780 mb Metal Gear Solid takes up, I should really get a bigger memory stick.
Jose Godinez @ Mar 24th 2008 11:04AM
Dude, how playable is MGS for us Americans? I REALLY want it... Have you tried Dark Mist, Samurai Showdown III, or Metal Slug X yet? THey are fun as ever... Please reply about MGS. Thanks.
