Sony lukewarm on PSP emu talk

News via Eurogamer

Sony will re-release an estimated 7000 PSone titles by the end of next year that will run on PlayStation Portable's PSone emulator.

That's according to the UK's PSP Magazine, which says that Sony has confirmed the first wave of titles and the 7000-game figure.

The first wave will include Final Fantasies VII and VIII, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and the original Silent Hill, the magazine said.

Whether or not someone at Sony said something to the mag though, it's certainly not going into specifics with general media inquiries - with ours this week met with a blank stare and a general statement:

"Sony Computer Entertainment is pleased to confirm that PlayStation titles will be made available to download onto your PlayStation Portable as per our announcement at E3," the company told us.

"However, no further details have been released as we are finalising plans and awaiting official confirmation on software line-up. We will be in touch soon with more news."

We'll let you know when details are confirmed.

As long as their price (they are just re-releases of old games in the end) is fair they could make a mint! :p FFVII alone will be a massive seller! :eek:

I have to pay for downloads anyway, I hope I'll be able to run my owned stuff. I don't feel like paying for something twice, let alone three times!

Lol i really hope that stuff about 7k titles by 2007 was true, as it was stated above that they recived a blank stare.

I do agree though, FF7 alone will give $ony another boost of funds. And i might even upgrade my 1.5fw just for it... prolly not. I think ill wait to see if it can be exploited for fw1.5 then make my decision.

lol soul blade on psp xD i cant wait, aw i bet that ull have to pay $400 pergame so sony can regain their lossess on ps3 :(
