    I think it has a Japanese PSN release. I know there isn't a big market for this game over here in the States but I never finished it as a kid and I REALLY want to play this again.

    I know in Europe the guys behind PSN know that this game is hugely requested so I imagine it'd just be licensing issues and such which are stopping it being released. Which sucks, this and its sequel are awesome.

    I would definitely pick it up if it were on the psn. I never owned the game but I had a demo of it that I played over and over.

    Just like the 2 guys above me, I played the demo a billion times also. I loved it and if it came to PSN, I would buy it. Let's make an online petition for it! That'll work!!!

    Considering Tomba 2 is my favorite game of all time, and I've never played the original, I'd hope the both of them get a US PSN release. Klonoa just showed up to, so perhaps there's hope.

    Man what an awesome game!! I did beat a tomba game back in the day it was in 3D though and all Japanese so I don't remember the title. But I sure hope they bring that game back.

    Tomba is one of those few games that for whatever reason wasn't backwards compatible with the PS2. Maybe that has something to do with why it hasn't seen a remake yet. Or not.

    Wow! Nice to see this game getting some love. I'd be happy with a PSN release but an HD remake would be even better! The mix of 2D and 3D is just SCREAMING for an upgrade.

    Hm. Maybe they fixed it. Don't know who "they" is. I definitely remember being really bummed seeing that game on the small list of games that backwards compatibility didn't work with.

    Really regret not buying this when it came out, though I made sure to get the sequel. It's been nearly a year since the Euro PlayStation blog guy said it was going through the PSN processes, wish they'd give us an update.

    I remember enjoying Tomba 2 a whole lot when I was younger, but I never played the first one. Wouldn't mind getting them on PSN.

    If this game showed up on PSN, then I might FINALLY go out and buy a PS3...

    ...since they already have Vagrant Story on there.
