This includes adding a set amount of credit to your wallet for future purchases, as well as funding the cost of a purchase directly. Sony said that it's making this change "to enhance online payment security for all PS3 and PS Vita owners. Keeping a service online for a shrinking number users is costly. The decision to take PS3 and Vita games off the web version of the PlayStation Store was another step in this direction.
Now, you can only buy PS3 or Vita games using the Store app on the respective console. Thankfully, you still have options for buying digital games on these older systems. If you have a credit card, you can simply add the necessary funds to your wallet using the website or a newer PS console. To top up your PS balance, visit the PlayStation Store on the web , then click your profile icon at the top-right and choose Payment Management. Generally with generic main characters and plots about trauma.
I never thought it was such a big deal. How is it not a big deal? This would have been a huge hit to Playstation brand reputation, not unlike what happened to Xbox at the beginning of the Xbox One cycle. Now please add backwards compatibility for PS2 games. Would remove a great hassle of having own the actual PS2 console.
I get that licensing is an issue with some games, but Microsoft managed to get several hundred Xbox games onto their newer consoles not just Specifically, the error issues popping up with error codes and ? I did talk to Support about this issue, and they knew of it… but no solution has yet been offered. Exactly this. Now support them properly with actual sales, and clean them up already. The two store platforms are messes.
You literally made the shopping experience the worst in console gaming, which is saying something. You want them to remove PS3 reserved space. But you want an update that uses the reserve. You really said remove the PS3 and Vita device limitations, which would make keeping the store open a big mistake because everyone would just share accounts lol. Okay lol. Would be nice, but admittedly is not really worth the time and effort.
Since you can still upgrade the drive you should just do that. Would be nice, unfortunately not possible without them releasing their own official SD card adapter, which is probably incredibly low on their priority list. But number 3 should definitely happen without question. The Vita thing is asking too much though. You made the right decision! If you do this, everyone is a winner including gamers, developers, and you, Sony.
Keep up the good work! PS1 and PS2 at the very least. Only 2K, which is p? Dream bigger. We got more immediate problem worldwide. Please have systems in place to discourage scalpers and let your new console find their ways to the hands of real PlayStation fans. Sony has a huge queue made to discourage scalpers. More immediate is a problem than some of the digital stores closing. In my case I got incredibly lucky.
Being a fan is great. Whatever happened to the Sony that changed, invented and innovated? Exactly, I say this all the time. Love this Jim. This is great news for smaller devs as well. Great call PlayStation. As an fan of PlayStation since Now just leverage your legacy consoles to make your PS5 an even more attractive offering than it already is. You could make it a console with the BEST game library available if you put in the work. Faenix1 — Also the PSP store has already been closed since , no one was in an uproar about it since PSP games could still be purchased and downloaded to the system.
You need to add backwards compatibility to the PS5. Surely a team of talented coders could get something running on your very powerful machine. Jim Ryan should also apologize to all the hard working legacy developers he insulted when he claimed their games looked terrible. Truly a shameful statement. Yeah to absolutely kill off the PS3. Do your own research because if you did you would know that its not possible.
They said they will keep the store and you immediately ask for more…. I see no issue with asking Sony to improve their backwards compatibility to match what Microsoft are already doing. If Sony want to remain competitive and avoid losing first place this generation, like with the PS3 in the 7th generation then they need to avoid becoming complacent.
Emulating the PS3 is difficult, not impossible. Fans have been making good progress emulating it on PC with only reverse engineering. Sony could make a much better emulator much faster using all the internal knowledge and documentation they must have regarding the PS3. The issue was the CPU so that solved that. The problem would be the cost to develop it and the time. Even if it worked the drive wouldnt be able to read physical discs so then they would have to make those game available digitally.
So possible…but not practical. Thank you for the reconsideration and for listening to us! I do wish you could keep this up by always listening to our feedbacks and continue to never let us down! Although it is still inevitable for the PS store to eventually shut down in the distant future, I still agree with the community that we should have all old games carried over to the newer consoles. Games are timeless and should never dissappear! Finally this Jim does anything, he has been a zero as president, only sad news on my dear Sony :.

I suspect this is Jim being forced to backtrack. Thank you Jim so very much. I was already buying games early January when the website store front was closing. Which I will eventually but this buys me some time to figure everything out with my budget. Thank You so very much.
For what? For lying to his customers? Or for putting his mlb game on gamepass? Or for cut funding japan studio And abandon Japanese games?
Yeah, fast im going to agree with you in that, abandoning Japense games and JPN studio is awful. Oh The real ghost. Chomza85 April 19, at pm PDT.
