Vita and PS1 games

Hi, I am considering buying a Vita and I heard you can play PS1 games on it. I would love to have FF7, Chrono Cross, and other great classics on the Vita.

But I am unsure as to how this works exactly, do you have to only own the digital copy for it to work? Because I have those games on physical copy and I wouldn't want to rebuy them again (though they are pretty cheap).

Any help would be appreciated, thanks! Also I'm a Plus Member and I heard we get free Vita games as well.

Yeah you'd have to buy the digital versions from the PS Store.

You just buy the digital copies off the PSN. they're the same ones that work on the PS3 if you have one so you can play at home and on the go!

i saw some classics on ps3 then i tried to do some tweaks like transferring it on pc through usb and tried putting it on my vita..boom! it works!!

If Sony can sort this out (and make wireless synching easier), I can see myself playing a PS1 game on the bus, getting home, turning on the PS3 and continuing the game right from where I left off. TBH I thought this was what you could do but either the functionality isn't there or it's not user friendly enough.

I haven't transfer files on PSVITA to PS3 maybe simply redeem the ps1 game or do not include the save file just the game only. Just make sure the folder is correct like SLUSxxxx or SLExxxx this some kind of folder name for PS1 games and you transfer the game on the right folder. It might work, sorry I rarely used my PS3, I don't have much time for it while working.

Maybe Granpire might help you to fix the problem:)
