WWE Wrestlefest is supposed to come out like a year ago.
It's a THQ game so I wouldn't count on it coming out ever now.

Yep pretty much. It's changed too much for the original source material anyway. I don't just mean the new wrestlers added.
I'd love to see the Double Dragon Neon Online Co-op patch added sometime this decade.

kassatsu, I guess you were unfortunately right all along about Japan getting the new Store too. I didn't doubt you outright, but week after week with them retaining the "good" Store I started to believe they rejected the idea. Maybe they did reject it initially but someone higher up said, "NO, YOU ARE GETTING IT AND YOU'RE GOING TO LIKE IT."
Anyone able to catch JP Store before maintenance happened?
I really, really hope I can still find things in it. The new US/EU Stores, in full English, is hard enough to find new content or categorized content as it is. Mix that with a language I can't rea (Japanese) and I think I won't be able to find anything. Maybe a new video explanation is in order for PSNStores to do in the future.
Are there now any regions that have the old Store?
Also, apparently a bunch of people have the PSN game Mad Dog McCree. Release is dated for 22nd in US Store (or came out this week, haven't looked), but the full game must be out somewhere.
OP is also missing Spelunker Collection. Released this week in Japan Store.

Anyone know if this has English menus?

Hong Kong still has it, even after the downtime.

It probably does, if the others are any indication. They got patched to have full English and it would automatically set to that if you console was set to English. Even the Tozai re-publish Japanese version had English.
I haven't read about official confirmation of it coming to US/EU later on, but from what I read it seems reliable. However, that might be months to a year or more.
Game is pretty cheap priced. 1200 Yen.
Japan-Codes.com for relatively fast emailed codes:

Play-Asia gives instant codes if Paypal is used. If other payment options it seems slower (once had to wait about 2 weeks):

Something new from the maintenance:
PayPal option is now available for American SEN accounts through sonyentertainmentnetwork.com
Comics have been removed from the download list. Activations for comics are also gone.

That's fantastic. It seems you can add in $5 or $10 increments too.

Has there been anything found out as to what the maintenance was actually about? This was a pretty long one. Can't be integrating the new Store to Japan because apparently that was up before the maintenance.
Good to know. Hopefully it stays so we can get nostalgic and actually browse an efficient Store.
But it's probably next, Japan was most likely the first to go for the Asian regions.

Australia still left out =[

It most likely is. I've read about the Dreamcast version possibly having an edge (if hooked up with VGA, etc. is very sharp) but not sure. It might have been the PC port people were unfavorable about.
Much better bet than the PS1 version also available on PSN at least.
Best bet available right now until an HD XBLA/PSN version comes out. I still wonder why they skipped right to Rayman 3 HD. Rayman 2 is arguably one of the best received 3D platforms of all time. 3 is much more obscure.

Thanks for the info mate, one more question: How's Rayman M as far as a party/multiplayer game goes?
...and yeah it is odd that Rayman 3 got 'HDified', and I recall Ancel didn't work on it right? Furthermore it's going for the same price as a PS2 classic anyways weird...
Either way I'm waiting for 2 and 3 to go on sale and then I'll pick them up =P
Paypal has been available in Europe for months now.

Just a little tidbit for those that didn't know, this year apparently marks the series' 30th anniversary =) If anyone's making the OT, make note of that~

They said the maintenance was for upgrading software for PSN. The notice was removed from the official Playstation site, but here is a Google cache of the the page.
I think HK store?
Mad Dog was released for a couple hours early by mistake in the last update. Quickly pulled.

Those screens have been there for a while now, can't be good for sales.

Tizoc: Never played Rayman M/Arena.
Though I really hope they get their act together and Rayman 2 HD sees the light of day.
Oh. You mean pulled from US?
Or it was on HK and quickly pulled?
I hope it's available somewhere.
The game "Storm" was pulled about a week or less after being up on US PSN. Has never returned.

I saw Mad Dog up on the US store, I think. Then it was gone next time.
What is/was Storm and why was it pulled?

the 13 for '13 sale is pretty nice but seems dumb having a single game from the Ratchet and Jak collections on sale instead of the whole thing
Same philosophy as putting Sly 1 on PS+, a hook to get people to pick the others up at full price.

tRUTH be told this current January sale on EU PSN has had more than 13 games on sale so faR~
