Hi,

I was very active on PSN when the ps3 was out but I haven't really done any gaming on it for years. I had a bunch of ps1 games downloaded from the PSN store. If I were to buy a ps3 or psp/vita, would I be able to download them onto those systems? I couldn't find the answer anywhere- hope someone can help!

Yep. As long as you sign into the account that you used to buy the games.

yes but as a quick note, you need to be on latest firmware. I noticed this on my vita this week that without it, you cannot access the store.

Now I may be an idiot, but there's one thing I am not sir, and that sir, is an idiot

Thank you guys! Gonna grab myself a Vita to relive some PS1 memories and dig into that catalog.

Keep in mind that not all PS1 classics work on Vita, but they will work on PS3. If the game shows up for sale in the store on the Vita, then it will work, otherwise it will not. There used to be some games that you could only play on Vita by installing them from a PS3 (Metal Gear Solid was one I think), but that feature has been disabled due to the 2 factor authentication being required now.

As for the PSP, they should work if you're able to connect your PSP to PSN. My wifi doesn't work with PSP, so I can't test it, but I'm not sure if PSP works with 2-factor.
