Assuming that its lack of inclusion in the OP is evidence that things haven't changed, it's outrageous that Japan has yet to see any PS2 emulation for PS4.

Persona 3 begging to be up there
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH BAHAHAHAAH HAAHHA HA HA
I didn't even know they did that.
They are the fucking worst. We should probably make a thread about it to be honest. Hurts my soul to know poor EU brothers are paying full money for shit tier versions.
Have you got a source for that as this is the first time I've heard this. It seems bizarre they would go out of their way to remove the option.
It's not bizarre.
They are outputting all games at 60hz. Except those morons used the 50hz code, so you end up with bad frame pacing and other kind of issues and audio desync bad videos etc... .
They wouldn't give people the choice to "play game at 60hz , or play game at 60hz broken" , whoever the incompetent turd that is charge of EU region thought their messy 60hz was fine, so no need to have the option to have two 60 hz ....
And you don't need a source. Rogue Galaxy doesn't have the toggle in the options, it did on Ps2. If you meant the bad conversions from 50hz, then Digital Foundry talked about it.
Source? Sure, check this thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1153232
The tests Eurogamer made prove that the EU versions are botched.
Also, check this comments about Rogue Galaxy in that same thread:
Edit: andshrew, you actively participated in that last thread, and now you don't remember?...
No, I don't remember it being discussed that they were explicitly preventing PAL games that supported 60hz from running as such, so thanks for confirming that.
My assumption for the reason 50hz is being forced to run at 60hz was actually an oversight on Sony's part from the fact that the PS4 doesn't (currently) output anything at 50hz, hence my surprise that if the game actually did natively support 60hz output that it wouldn't be able to use it.
Well, its definitely not in Rogue Galaxy. Not sure how they are sure it will not appear in other games though.
Changing OP to the new compact format, putting in links will take some time though.

I know it will never happen due to licensing problems between Disney, Sony and Activision as well as the movies and etc, but I'd love to see Spider-Man 2 on PS4.
Best wishes.

Oh, what the fuck. Not touching them with a tentpole then.

King of Fighters 2000, really? Not 98UM, 2002UM or XI?

I really hope we get some Legacy of Kain games on there. Would love to play Soul Reaver 2 via remote play.

Yes.
FIFY. 2 is much better than the 1st. I'd take both I guess.
It would be nice if the Enix side of SE would release VP2, DQVIII and SO3. Up-res'd PS2 versions would be fine by me.

What a bunch of fucking clowns.
I was so excited for PS2 B/C on PS4 but the amount of problems I'm hearing is so frustrating.
Just let us use our damn discs Sony. Fuck man.

Yeah, that's definitely how this feels. If they didn't make such fucking killer first party games I'd bail.

Really hoping we get to see Atlus's games, the Xenosaga trilogy, and Silent Hill 2, 3, and 4 on PS4 some day. I would cherish my PS4 unhealthily if this happened.
Really hoping we get Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Dragon Ball Z Infinite World. The two best DBZ PS2 games from both types of games (no, Budokai 3 is not better than IW).
In an ideal world, we would get all of them though lol. (Budokai 1-3, IW, BT1-3, and Super Dragon Ball Z)

As far as the release speed goes, they appear to be adding one game a week, so it's not that bad. It just feels slow because they took a 2 week break over the holidays (as did the rest of PSN). I'm interested to see if they can keep up that pace once they work through all of the Sony titles, though. We've only got a handful of 3rd party titles confirmed (was Psychonauts actually confirmed as the PS2 version?).
Between that and the first-week sales, things are looking better than they did at the program's launch. Can't wait to play Wild Arms 3 again!

I've seen at least one per week. I think but it either way it takes time.
No you can't change the aspect ratio, but I'm sure the games do load faster than they did running from the disc.

Nothing I care about at the moment but here's hoping that it changes soon.
Outside of holiday weeks, they have been releasing one a week.
King of Fighters 2000 is the only game not out from that announcement video, so likely that will be next week's game, and then we should hopefully start seeing the rated games. Ape Escape 2 is my guess for what comes after next week, and then hopefully Dark Cloud 2 (the one I've been waiting for the most).

These 3 Star Wars games showed up one day on http://gamedealdaily.com/ as a package deal and they work fine on my US PS4 (digital download code).
The framerate in Jedi Starfighter can get pretty bad at times tho, (Worse than actual PS2 hardware running it)

Agreed. Make Persona 3 cross-buy with PS3 and PS4 so I can use my Vita to play my PS2 game that I bought for PS3 on my PS4.

Onimusha 1-4 please and thank you.
Lol, ok this is a joke. Seems like every European's easiest and only option here is to download the games with a dummy US account.

I'm happy about the diversity so far. It is kind of surprising that Level-5 was the first Japanese third party to get on board. Hopefully more Japanese publishers follow soon.

I'm conflicted.
Yay for Dark Cloud 2 coming, but boo for that potentially meaning a remaster will never come. The engine L5 used for DC2, Rogue Galaxy, and DQ8 could greatly benefit from 1080p.

It must happen. The game has to be done justice. It's original release underperformed overseas, causing the sequel to be canceled and turned into Dead Rising.
