I dont think there is enough nostalgic appeal for this and I can't imagine a list of games they could put together to make it worthwhile.

I really thought the headline was a joke.

I could still see myself getting one for somewhat less than $100 depending on games available though.

That said I have a hefty chunk of the PS1 games Id want already and the PS1 itself has no nostalgic value for me (didnt get one until I was in college), so its significantly less appealing than the NES and SNES were.

The fact that they didn't show a lot of games in the trailer leads me to believe the lineup's going to suck.

I mean, I would normally feel it's a given that it would have MGS for example, but if it does why not announce that as one of the first five? Either bad marketing, or they have nothing.

As much as people have griped about Nintendo's lack of interest in backwards compatibility over the years, I have to believe that it's made their classic consoles considerably more attractive to consumers than they otherwise would be. I just don't see what a Sony classic console has going for it.

This can't include my favorite PS1 game, Monster Rancher 2, so what's the point?

also I already bought most of the other PS1 games I care about on PS3/PSP/Vita. I'm not desperate for a third way to play FFVII.

I wonder if this will be different from the Nintendo classic consoles and include more than one game from a series. Like 20% of this thing should be Final Fantasy games.

there's like 200 ps2 games and they're going to put 15 max on it.

The top 30-60 games have pretty much all been remastered or released on easier platforms.

Just release a Final Fantasy Classic.

The games included in the PS1 classic won't be nearly as good as the SNES Classic.

The PS1 doesn't invoke nearly as much nostalgia as the NES Classic.

NES Classic was purchased for Nostalgia.
SNES Classic was purchased for Quality of Games.
PS1 Classic is purchased for.... Jumping Flash?

This is a Nintendo board, but I grew up on the PS1. My reaction/nostalgia for this is the same as everyone else's for the NES/SNES Classic.

Give me Legend of Dragoon and I'm 100% in.

Somehow give me trophies and I'll buy 2.

It better have:

Legend of Dragoon
Parasite Eve
Breath of Fire 3 or 4 (i prefer 3)
Intelligent Cube
Symphony of the Night
Chrono Cross

Thats enough for me to purchase it even without a Final Fantasy game on the system.

Less games for almost double the price. Inferior controller choice. And even if its hackable to make up for the game choice, you cant play any games that need analog either at all, or at the least not correctly

a few good options

Crash Bandicoot/Spyro the Dragon (although the current-gen remakes make these unlikely)
Crash Team Racing
Gex: Enter the Gecko
MediEvil
PaRappa the Rapper
Metal Gear Solid
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
Parasite Eve
Klonoa: Door to Phantomile

Weird options for the first 5, though FF7 is a good pick and I love Tekken 3

I don't think people are against this, more like confused or apathetic. The lack of dual shock means that they can't include a lot of games people would actually want such as Metal Gear Solid and stuff. The fact that they haven't announced many games hints that the game selection may be bad. The inclusion of Jumping Flash strengthens those concerns.

That's in comparison to the reveals of the NES Mini and SNES classic which were revealed with the controllers people love, the full lineup of games that pretty much encompassed what people loved (even if it was DKC1 instead of 2 or whatever), and very few what the heck inclusions.

Also remember this site skews older and is typically highly Nintendo devouted. I don't think that matters as much. I think the major concern is simply what games and lol no dual shock.
