Pricing for downloadable PSOne games announced

Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) has announced the pricing for original PlayStation games that are being made available for the PSP. The first batch of titles will be priced between $5.99 and $10.99. The games, full versions of the originals, weigh in between 140MB and 550MB.

The first batch of games will be made available on the PlayStation online store some time "in the coming weeks" according to a statement from Sony. Additional games will be made available over the coming weeks and continually on an ongoing basis. Among the titles in the first batch are Resident Evil: Director's Cut, Tekken 2 and Arc the Lad.

In addition to making these titles available, Sony has released a PSP system update—version 3.0—that will include PlayStation Network support and a remote play feature that will enable PlayStation 3 owners to wirelessly stream media from their 60GB PS3 directly to their PSP. Planned for a later release is remote playing directly from the PlayStation Network from any WiFi hotspot.
