If anyone knows of any others please post them!

I know that Peace Walker definitely works, as well as others.

I think that official list is what is available to download from the Vita's store directly. If, like us, you have a PS3 and download PSP games (that aren't on the list) to it - you can transfer them across to the PSV and it should work fine. Kinda weird, but meh

[R3D D3V!L]

GTA Vice City Stories works as well. Someone had posted pictures of it running on Vita.

[Bhindi_Bhajji]

Did you mean Liberty City stories? I've already listed Vice City Stories.

[*goo]

Are these games taking advantage of the second analogue stick?

[Bhindi_Bhajji]

Yep, if you hold your finger on the screen a bunch of options come up including what to use the right stick for!

For example some PSP games use the face buttons for the camera (always a pain), you can configure this option to the right stick!!

[YoungMullah88]

ease does socom fireteam bravo 1/2 work? or tactical strike?

[AaronSOLDIER]

Good to know about the right stick. Can you capture images ingame too? And can you still use custom tracks in the GTA games?

[Bhindi_Bhajji]

It seems screen shots don't work, at least on GTA:VCS, I haven't tried the custom tracks.

[Alpha2]

"Pursuit Force" works. I kinda wished the PSone titles worked but oh well maybe by the time I finish Uncharted.

Also as for minis "Monsters (probably) Stole my Princess" works but "Angry Birds" doesnt.

Mega late reply from me but this definitely increases my interest in Vita. Never put much time into Monster Hunter Freedom Unite as I found the D-Pad to rotate camera just clumsy on the PSPGo. Having read your reply and looking on YouTube, it definitely seems to play much better. What to do, what to do. Lol.

P.S. This thread deserves to be updated (OP) as more games come to Vita, and stickied!

[arfi-gorgona-O]

How you guys manage to transfer PSP games to PS vita?

[R3D D3V!L]

You can either download them to your Vita directly or download them to your PS3 and copy them over.

[YoungMullah88]

eh why doesnt the vita have an app drawer? what if you fill all the tabs with icons, what then? anyway all my downloaded games are not transferring

[*goo]

Next question from me. Do PSOne games work on Vita like they do on PSP? Such as Final Fantasy VII and Metal Gear Solid?

[AaronSOLDIER]

It seems you have to redownload your PSP now so they're in that bubble thing on XMB. Before, you could install them to your PS3 HDD and then transfer, but now you can't. Same with installed PS1 games, you have to redownload and keep them in the bubble.

[Nitey]

Unfortunately, *goo, they don't right now. In an interview they said they prioritized PSP emulation ahead of PSone, and we should expect is 'very soon'

[*goo]

Thanks for the info. I've bit the bullet and ordered a Vita which should arrive on Monday of next week. Looks like I'm delaying that iPad purchase, Lol.

you won't regret it

[Nitey]

I actually forgot to mention that you can play all PSone games over remote play. If it's anything like how it was on PSP you should just be able to convert your save file from the PS3 and put it on the Vita, when the Vita PSone emulation is up and running

[Everyday]

Need for speed: Most wanted works, Socom FTB3 doesnt though, I downloaded them through the PS3.

[Terminator 101]

No Killzone Liberarion or Little Big Planet?
I got those games for free after the PSN hacking thing happened, and was kind of hoping to save them for PSV. Hopefully they will be made compatible soon.

[*goo]

I've been reading up and some people are suggesting pretty much every game works.

The assumption is the list refers to games available via the Vita store.

If you have a PS3, try transferring those games to your Vita and let us know how you get on.


Obligatory TapaTalk signature.

I got both of those as well.

[The Cage]

It makes more sense playing a PSP game now lol (on the Vita that is)
