The default question asks "Where were you born?", so just type 'Sydney'/wherever in that final box (press Select twice to enable English text input) and move on to the next screen. You'll then need to select a sign-in ID email address and a password (in that order), before choosing a question-and-answer combination for security purposes. This will switch the display into Japanese mode – once you've input your date of birth, click the bottom-right tab to go to the next screen (this is a general rule, so repeat as necessary) to tell Sony that you agree with their privacy policy. Nearly all of these games are being sold at a flat rate of 600yen (AU$8.50) the only notable exception is Final Fantasy VII International, which costs 1,500 yen (AU$21).įirst thing, then: how can you access the Japanese PlayStation Store? Create a spare profile and head over to the 'Sign Up for the PlayStation Network' option, selecting Japan as your 'Country/Region of Residence'. At the time of typing, there are 312 full PlayStation games available for download – which is about six times the amount available in the Aussie PS Store and, for that matter, in the UK and US Stores. Sony Japan has been putting everything into ensuring that the 'Game Archives' section of the Japanese PlayStation Store is stocked with hundreds of games from the 32-bit era. So much fun to play and collect for.If you think Sony's been a bit slow out of the blocks in developing the 'Classic Games' area of the PlayStation Store, you might be surprised to know that this only really applies to the company's limited efforts in English-speaking territories. Ranger X, Pulseman, King Colossus, Assault Suit Leynos, El Viento, Granada, Atomic Runner Chelnov, Gynoug, Elemental Master, Crusader of Centy (fairly well known.), Wardner, Mazin Saga, Arcus Odyssey, Rent-A-Hero, etc.Įvery single one of those are worth a play - and are generally quite enjoyable. Who, outside of the few browsing this thread, knows of:
Honestly, Genesis/MD is probably right up there in the Top 3. Though I would say it's easily the most unknown library of great games unknown to almost all but the most devoted collectors.
PCE CD is one system that I'd love to say is full of hidden gems.but most of them are kinda mediocre games. However, you could very much make the argument that Wii is the same.Īlso, how obscure does something have to be in order to be considered "hidden"? Who knows. Subjectivity is a killer in these situations - but for me, PS1's hidden "gems" are primarily just middling titles that aren't really as playable these days.
