You might have read yesterday that the PlayStation Vita's PS Store is now officially online and ready to accept your money. The current offering of actual Vita games is relatively light, but there are hundreds of PSP and Minis titles available for purchase and/or download. The exact number is 275, Sony reveals in a new PlayStation Blog post.
The update explains the various options users have for getting a PSP onto your Vita's memory card. It's pretty simple, really: either download them straight to the Vita via the built-in PS Store app or download them to your PS3 and then transfer them over using the Content Manager. You can find the full list of games at the source link below, though I can also confirm that LittleBigPlanet PSP, Killzone: Liberation and Echochrome can all be transferred from your PS3 to the Vita as well, and that they all seem to run just fine.
Sony promises to add more PSP titles to the store "in the coming weeks."

I pre-purchased my ps vita already, I can't wait to play all of the uncharted games on it as well as all of the kill zone games, (raping noobs in kz2 and kz3 while taking a dump I can't wait.:)

Would have been cool if you could have connected PSP (with UMDs in drive) with the Vita to activate/redeem titles on the PSN store so you could download them.
I think 2 things killed that idea, Sony being Sony (:D) and the "homebrew" scene using that system with their pirated games.

I saw DJ MAX 3 so I can happily get rid of my PSP now

People need to stop complaining about the price of the vita i think it is fare. Hardcore gamers pay whatever for new great systems created for us. This is just what we wanted a ps3 portable this is what i call the vita now we can play shooters and chat and everything on the go stop crying and get jobs losers.

Happy to hear so many games from the PSP will be available on the Vita...but I'm still waiting for a holiday price drop this year to compete with 3DS sales. If no price drop, then I'll probably just buckle and end up getting one.

I'm gonna have to resist the urge to get one right away and wait for some alternate colors. I'm hoping they release that rainbow assortment shown at the TGS display.

Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta make this worth it.

I'm sort of wondering if you can use the other analog stick or the back touch pad for Splinter Cell Essentials.

This makes the Vita a LITTLE more attractive for the price. But it is still a major hit to the wallet with the $100 memory card.
