For PSP owners itching to test out the game-playing capabilities of Remote Play (made possible from the last firmware upgrade), you'll want to go here for a walkthrough on setting up a Japan PlayStation Network account for your PS3. Mainichi Issyo has been (and still is) only available through the Japanese PlayStation Store. As reported during the firmware 3.50 release, the Remote Play functionality will allow Mainichi Issyo gamers to "interact with Toro the cat" through any available internet access point. New details unveil the game's unique ability to complete microtransactions through the PlayStation Store in-game, instead of dumping you out to the PSP built-in browser. Feel free to have yourself a look-see. We'll be sure to update you with our in-depth impressions on Remote Play, as promised.
[Update: Changed the wording of the post to reflect the newly unveiled features within Mainichi Issyo, using Remote Play. The post title changed to reflect the description of these new in-game features.]

Why does that cat remind me of Animal Crossing?

I hate how drones always yell copy, when nintendo is more guilty of it than anyone.

sm0ke you do know Sony had this cat and his friends around before Animal Crossing. He came around on the PS1. So him and the gang have been around for some time.
That being said I wonder why Sony will not bring this little mini game out on the any other servers.

Joe, I had no idea. Up until 2003, I was a Nintendo fanboy, and then I got an Xbox. The first Sony system I ever owned was the PSP.

sm0ke, "I had no idea" is not an appropriate excuse. Look up things and find out about it before flying in with the fanboy typing of yours...
