SoundGammon Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Downloaded it, says "Install complete", but doesn't show up on game list, installer still there in list. Downloaded again, same thing! Any ideas? It's a PS3, PSP & Vita game from an older PS1 game. Dragon Beat Legend of Pinball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onmode-ky Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Are you sure the game is not in your game list? The installer "bubble" still being there after installation is normal for downloaded PS1 games, to allow you to install the game to a PSP or PSV if you want to. If you press Square button until the games are grouped by format (i.e., by original game platform), does the PS1 folder definitely not have the game in it? If it really isn't anywhere after "Installation complete," I don't know what could have happened, but if it's just the installer bubble's presence being misleading, then everything is as it should be. onmode-ky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 A ps1 game like that will be downloaded as an installer all the time. So the game is there just fine. Copy it to the psp or vita if you're going to run it from those machines. If you were going to install it on the PS3, as most will run on the ps3 as well if not all, just press the triangle button and install it on the ps3 from that menu.

karokoenig Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 How is a game supposed to run when it's not on a cartridge? Magic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoundGammon Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 Still not there. Talked to a person at Sony and was told to go into "safe mode" and perform "file recovery". Problem is no screen so I have to find my old composite video cable! Using component right now. Also about cartridge comment...what PS1 games came on a cartridge? Where did they plug in? In that "slot" behind the laser drive? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 When you downloaded it did it show up on the screen as a bubble? Click it and select install. If it says "install complete" the bubble will remain there but go down to where your games are and change your sorting options and look for it. It could be hidden in a folder etc. I've never seen or read about issues with PS1 installs so it sounds kind of strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
