Sony has confirmed that a whole bunch of PSone titles are to have their prices slashed to celebrate the recent 1.80 Vita update.
These cuts happen on 5th September, and only apply to Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Sorry, North America! At least things are slowly getting better on your side of the pond.

First Nintendo ignores NA, now Sony's doing it. What bullsh*t! ><
Seriously, why no love for NA? Also Sony, please bring Katamari Damacy (the original first game) and Futurama (the game) to the PSN/PS2 Classics. Thanks.
Yeah! We too want price cuts on random games we would never buy!
I wouldn't have bought any of these, but at least SCEE tries.
The stupidity of both Sony and Nintendo when it comes to the North American market is absolutely astounding. Sony could easily take this market back from MS (and Nintendo) if they would just take it a bit more seriously. The fact we had to wait so long for PSone games on the Vita, something that should've been there day one, plus the fact they half-assed it with a mere nine games when we finally did get the update is part of the reason why they've slipped. It annoys me because Sony clearly has the best gaming products out there, period, but they don't do enough over here to entice people to buy them. The only convincing I need is the software, the lineup of games headed to Sony's machines speaks for itself, but sadly other people need much more than just that. Better advertising, better sales, etc would go a long way.
@Squiggle55
Exactly. The 'nobody will buy these,' response is annoying. Even if only a few people added one of these games because of the price cut it's worth it. It's just like the argument the diehard Nintendo fanboys had when the imbeciles at NoA were for a time not even considering bringing Xenoblade and The Last Story over here. 'They'll sell 20K combined if they're lucky.' So what? NoA had to do literally zero work because the European branch of the company-which actually gives a damn about the people who buy its products- did it all for them. Yet it still took begging and spamming the Facebook page for the lazy a-holes to actually do anything and even then they only brought one over. If it wasn't for Xseed NA wouldn't have gotten The Last Story (the game I wanted most of the 'Operation Rainfall' lineup) so as far as I'm concerned, Nintendo's American branch can f*ck right the hell off and lately, Sony's American branch hasn't been much better. What saves Sony is it at least provides greatly for the PS plus subscribers. Still some other stuff that needs to be worked on though.
I would easily buy CTR, and a few titles on this list. So your guys' arguments are invalid. :3
@zezhyrule maybe YOU wouldn't buy them I find alot of games on that list to be classics to me :S
I'd buy a few PS1 games on my PS3 at a lower price.
I live in Europe and I've bought all the classsics that I'm interested in from that list. Still appreciate the effort from SCEE
