A day that more than a few PS Vita owners have been waiting for is finally here – the PSone’s catalog is starting to open up on the handheld. European players have a pretty solid list of offerings to choose from on day one, North American fans… not so much.

The US PSN has been graced with a staggering nine games today. Nine! It’s a move that makes no sense at all. I mean really, what possible reason could there be that only nine games out of the huge list of offerings available to EU players make it Stateside? Laziness?

In any event, all hope is certainly not lost since these games are all pretty much locked to arrive on the US PSN at some point. It’s just a matter of when, that’s the question. So without further ado, here’s what you’ll be able to play when you download system update 1.80:
