The Japanese Playstation Store is getting flooded with classic PSone games. Six more PSone games have been added to the store and are the following; Ehrgeiz, Brave Fencer Musashi, b.l.u.e. Legend of Water, Raycrisis, Wizard’s Harmony R, and Aquanaut’s Holiday: Memories of Summer 1996.

If i could purchase from the Japanese store my choices would be Ehrgeiz and Brave Fencer Musashi simple because they are classics and a Final Fantasy fan (Ehrgei).

You need a Japanese account and Japanese Playstation Network cards to fund your account.
