Would you be pissed if you couldn't play your UMD-purchased games on your PS Vita? Because you know it's been confirmed the device is fully backwards compatible with PSP games, albeit "games digitally released on the PlayStation Network" only; however, Sony is considering a service to offer PSN versions of UMD games, and those games will be set at a "special price" for existing UMD owners. Hopefully that "special price" is free, considering you purchased the game once already. Sony plans to share more on that service at a later date.

And in related news: The PS Vita will apparently not support PSOne Classics, Neo Geo games and other retro titles downloadable from PSN. Again Sony will have more details concerning these limitations later. To me, that kind of sucks... Hopefully the Vita is hacked real quick, letting us make use of homebrew emulators and such ... but that's wishful thinking.

Wait and see I guess.

tbag... you're the man! Thanks for the news.
