If they only bring psn support to those games would be very, very nice, i was playing Lemmings not long ago and its pretty fun i must say but it would be even better with trophy, scoreboards support, just saying. wanna bring these little games to the vita audience then do it right because we have standards and as of today they haven't met them yet lol

GribbleGrunger4499d ago

I don't follow? These are on PSN in the PSMobile section.

jon12344499d ago

he wants the game to give you trophies and record scores to log players and give rankings

jujubee884499d ago

Good example. "Lemmings" would benefit a lot from trophies and scoreboards.

If I can break my own record and complete a certain task it would probably make me want to stay on the game a bit longer.

ABizzel14499d ago

I think they need a different name for the games or something.

PSMobile sounds great, and PSMini sounds great, but they should do something to promote the games better and let people know the games exist.

Maybe $1 deals or something, and highlight it on the Vita store and PSN, because you don't instantly think to check the PSMobile section.

sarshelyam4499d ago

I have to agree. I don't check out the PSM section as often as I should, and there are quite a few gems to be found within.

ABizzel14499d ago

I know. Even though I hate how slow the new PSN is on the PS3, it does help in advertising games, as well as promoting the top 10 games.

However, they need to do more than that, and actually show a video fo the game running like the the Xbox dashboard does with their ads (except here it's a gameplay video).

kingPoS4499d ago

My main gripe is when the new search overlooks somes games. For example when I try searching megaman, the ps1 versions won't even show.

Most of the store is ok, but i miss the straightforward search from the old store

Veneno4499d ago

The ps mobile section is the section i usualyy look at first.

Cam9774499d ago

I would like to buy HTH now.

Veneno4499d ago

I want PS2 classics on Vita.

if they make their mobile games playable on ps5 and their maybe new handheld, that would be huge. cause i aint playing any free games on my phone, cause mobile games suck. haha.

Retro1986346d ago

I like mobile games, but the problem for me is that «free games» usually has alot of p2w or other microtransaction connected to them. LoL, Hearthstone, civ, fm etc is great on iPad 😊 Would love to see rise of kingdoms etc Get rid of p2w formula.

Guitardr85346d ago

Does anyone remember PS MInis from the PS3 era? I feel like most of those were mobile games that were ported...No reason they couldn't do that again I suppose. :)

gold_drake346d ago

yeeeess i had some of them haha

P_Bomb346d ago

Ha, I remember those! They didn’t have trophies so I’ve lost track of most of them, but I remember Hysteria Project and Angry Birds.

piher346d ago

I feel like people don't understand what mobile gaming is anymore.

It's not the button phone cheap Tetris clones or movie licensed stuff anymore.

Mobile gaming is huge games like Genshin Impact Honkai: Star Rail, Wuthering Waves, Amazon and Bandai/Namco's Blue Protocol games with budgets that rival and even exceed AAA, but even things like CoD and other big western games have mobile versions.

All the games listed also have PC and console versions.

Sony already owns several big mobile games most famously Fate/Grand Order.

gold_drake346d ago

i feel like you are overblowing what other ppl have said ha.

most mobiles are still very much your gatcha style of gaming.

the games u listed, absolutely, but that wasnt even my comment. mobile games, if they are not on anything else, sucks. so to have them on a handheld with buttons or on a console to, would be a win for me

Philaroni346d ago

I'm going to say this and ether A: I'm crazy or B: I'm crazy, but do any of you remember when Sony years back had the Xperia Play. Touched one never got it myself. If Sony is looking for a handheld (Look at Apple with the games it can run on there own devices) I wonder if maybe, just maybe they try to make a play for the Phone space again. Just my 2 cents, well with inflations I guess my 2 dimes.

Kurisu346d ago

Make an Xperia Play 2 that actually has functionality with the PS5 and I might bite! Loved the Xperia Play, showing off Crash Bandicoot on it was great but that's the only game I had for it.
