This seems very much like the whole "hey, we can't play ps2 disks on he system, buuuuuut you can re-buy them via the online store and play them. " . No one really made a stink about that.

To those saying play them on a PSP: Vita does it better.
To the guy saying we bought a license not a game: That would mean Sony should do it for free.

Actually it is. They could have let us copy the UMD directly from our PSP to Vita via wifi

" and Nintendo's a company historically known for being pretty easy to deal with when it comes to replacing devices."

@beeftothetaco: Actually the battery life will be pretty good. Xperia Play is more than twice as powerful as the 3DS, and it also has better battery life. It'll probably have a huge battery
