Certified devices will only feature 'original content'.
Earlier this week, Sony announced its PlayStation Mobile gaming platform will launch across certified (http://www.mobile-ent.biz/news/read/playstation-mobile-coming-in-autumn/019039) Android devices (HTC, Asus, Wikipad) and the PlayStation Vita.
But while the firm previously said 100 retro PS one games will be available on PlayStation Mobile, the PSV will now be the only device to have that honour – starting August 28th – according to Xperia Blog. (http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/08/16/ps-one-classics-dropped-from-playstation-mobile-third-party-support-revealed/)
The decision has been made so that the Android devices will only feature 'dedicated and original content'.
It's plausible that Sony also made the decision to make its handheld device a differentiator from the rest of the pack, hoping to pull in some of the die-hard gamers that want to relieve the classic games.
