The Elephant in the Room: Sony does not sell PKG files for every PS1 game. While you can legally purchase Crash Bandicoot or Castlevania: Symphony of the Night as PS1 Classics from the defunct PS3 Store (if you catch it during re-opening windows), the vast majority of the 4,000+ PS1 library is abandonedware.

To create a PS1 PKG for a game you physically own:

Note: This process requires a PS3 running Custom Firmware (CFW) or HEN (Homebrew Enabler). Standard, unmodified PS3s will reject unsigned PKG files.

If you have a jailbroken PS3 (CFW or HEN), you have multiple ways to play PS1 games: loading ISO files via WebMan MOD or multiMAN, or installing PKG files. Here is why the PKG route is superior for portability:

  • Transferring PKG between PS3s:
  • Savegame portability:

    • The distribution and downloading of PS1 PKG files exist in a legal grey area.

    As of 2021, Sony announced that it would be ending support for the PS3's and PSP's digital storefronts. This move meant that, after a certain point, users would no longer be able to purchase new games or download purchased games again if they were lost. However, for those who had already purchased PSOne Classics on their PS3, these games remained accessible, allowing them to continue playing their favorite titles.
