Well, to be fair, a lot of work has already been done in that direction.

Unfinished Business has been ported to PS1 twice. The first port was made
by Gh0stblade, and is available for download. It does have some content cut
to fit withing the PS1's limits (namely the removal of some enemies), but
it's a very impressive port. The second port was made by me, and is sadly
not available for download yet because it was originally planned to have
an unofficial physical release, but there were delays due to the pandemic.
This port however does not have any cut content, and will be released later
this year.

The Golden Mask has also been ported to PS1 by me, and is available for
download on my website (b122251.org). This also doesn't have any cut content,
however, there are two slight bugs I still want to work out at some point in
the future (namely on the PAL version there is a problem when saving at a
specific point in level 1, and when going to Nightmare in Vegas, not all
weapons are removed). The bugs aren't too bad, but they still need to be fixed.

The Lost Artefact has never been ported to PS1, and porting it would be
extremely difficult, as the levels are absolutely huge. The legality of it
doesn't interest me too much, as I don't think Square Enix would be too
bothered by a PS1 version of the Lost Artefact, but just technically making
it would be very, very difficult.
