Copypasta from Klonoa @ Blog for some unfortunate news...
QuoteThe PS3, PS Vita, and PlayStation Portable stores aren't long for this world. According to a source familiar with the situation (verified by TheGamer), the stores are due to be closed down from July. The announcement is planned for the end of this month.
PSP's and PS3's stores are to be closed on July 2, while the PS Vita store will stay open until August 27. After those dates, you will no longer be able to purchase digital copies of games or DLC for any of the Sony consoles mentioned above.

Earlier this month, Klonoa: Door to Phantomile and Bandai Namco's catalogue of other PS1 titles were quietly delisted from the UK Playstation store. [

Until the stores closing, Klonoa: Door to Phantomile is still available for purchase in the US and Japan Playstation Stores. Purchasing and downloading of the game can only be done via the game console (PS3, PSP, Vita) itself.

Sony: We're taking away peoples ability to legally play Klonoa 1 for a very cheap price in a few months. Oh, and like, Tomba and stuff too. Bye!
