I love the Vita, still a really amazing system standing tall next to the Switch OLED i sold mine years ago but I have been toying with the idea for a while now to buy a new one
I've sold my OLED PS Vita and bought a PS Vita Slim 2 years ago and recently my PS Vita Slim has been getting drift where as my OLED PS Vita didn't have analog stick drift. It was bought in 2016 and never had anlog stick drift. I am now tempted to buy OLED PS Vita again and OLED Switch currently i have Switch V2 which uses the LCD display!
@@DrSwitchDisrespectParody No it's not it does have it's flaws. Though but Switch uses a newer version of Samsung OLED display which looks far better then PS Vita OLED dsiplay!
@@nepaliprayasgurung2594 stay salty to sony portables Nintendo switch fanboy crying over this video. Will roast you in my next video so my audience can laugh at you
@@DrSwitchDisrespectParody Actually my 1st console that i ever owned was PS2 in 2002. So wrong i am a diehard sony fan. After that i owned PS3, PSP, and PS Vita alike. And i personally seen PS Vita and Switch OLED display in person and Switch OLED is way better then PS Vita OLED because. When PS Vita came out OLED screen technology was in it's infancy and many smart phones and TV didn't have OLED screen in 2013. Where as now every smartphone from flagship to budget phones you'll get oled display. And they perfected OLED display to have the most vibrant colors and not drain the battery life like they used to. That's why PS Vita slim had better battery life aboyt 2 hour more. Because the OLED was draining battery bit quickly because the technology wasn't perfected back then. But now OLED display screen technology is one of the best after QLED. And has realistic color reproduction aswell as bright saturated and contrasty colors and they consume low energy from screen display. Which makes any device that uses OLED have a better battery life and very good display!
I own one OLED vita from new and three non OLED, two new, one black, one white…… finally and a jailbroken blue vita with a 640gb SD card. Have about 170 physical games as well. It’s a stunning machine and so well made. One thing you failed to mention was that the Vita perfectly emulates the PS1 and the PSP.
I actually prefer the vita 2000 over the 1000 for these reasons: 1:better form factor:The first time I had an OLED vita in my hands it felt uncomfortable to hold compared to the 2000,the shoulder buttons felt out of place and mushy and the buttons in general aren't as good as 2000 vita button controls 2:better speakers:I don't have a good pair of headphones so speakers mean a lot to me when playing on my vita,2000 speakers sound generally more clear and louder. 3:better battery:No need for explanation here. 4:Internal memory:No need for explanation here either. 5:When I had the ps vita oled in my hands and I looked at the nice OLED screen, it was cool, but kinda underwhelming, I have a screen mod on my 2000 vita called registry editor which makes the screen more vibrant, so the OLED screen looked pretty much similar, and YES I did a side-by-side comparison,it's not too much of a difference at all. 6:Borderlands 2 runs better:on vita OLED borderlands 2 ran like crap,on vita slim it is more enjoyble playing borderlands because the framerate hardly doesn't suffer as much,for referencen that is nearly 170 HOURS of game time. 7: better portability:of course,no need for explanation here as well. I rest my case.WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT!ONE MORE THING:non proprietary charger.
I still play mine, it's a fantastic little console, especially the OLED version. I mainly use mine for ps1 classics, and games like Persona 4 golden, Odin Sphere, Killzone, Dragons Crown etc.
I own two OLEDS. One is my first hand 3G variant which I barely use (I do some remote play and play a handful of physical games/digital and classic downloads) and the other is my second hand Wi-Fi variant, which I soft-modded and is packed with some serious content! Gaming bliss right there.
Bought mine a month ago. Cost me £150. Vita had 1 lil scratch on the back pad came with its box a 32gb memory cards and came with 3 games. Absolutely love the system.
I still have mine and plays on it from time to time. Sony failed the system, it could have been a great system if only they supported it like how nintendo supported the 3ds when it failed to catch on early in its life. My vita is modded and has 8GB official memory card paired with 256GB of micro SD. I have all the systems I would like to play and is exploring systems I haven't played with.
I remember when this thing was just a rumor on pspdemocenter. It was dubbed the "NGP" Next generation portable. And you are so right that the 3DS would be considered a better comparison/competitor
My OLED (launch bought) still holds up very well, and i will never sell it, Soul Sacrifice, Unit 13, CoD Declassified, Frozen Synapse Prime, Dex, just to mention a few brilliant games
Haha, what..? You do realise the Wii U, the very same Wii U which inspired the Switch design was developed years before release, right? Yeah, the Switch was heavily modeled AFTER the Nvidia Shield, but Nintendo were so far ahead of the game in terms of streamlining the vision as the Wii U started R&D in the 2008-09 period. I love the PS Vita, but you are wrong when you are say there would be no Switch if the Vita didn't exist.
Bought my oled VITA back in 2012 from this guy who only played it for 2 hours. Basically brand new and got 4 games for 90 bucks. Best investment in my life lol. Now my vita is fully hacked.
I still use and love my Vita, but I must admit the battery life on mine isn't what it used to be, I'm lucky to get a few hours out of it, and it's become a bit of a pain charging it sometimes, I did purchase a new wire thinking that was at fault, but I think it's the battery, I do need to change it, but I'm not too tech savvy anymore, with my arthritic fingers. One day I'll do it.
I got the vita by accident. When it was newly released I have heard of it and it is expensive but I didn't buy it because I don't have time to do gaming. Before I knew it more than six years have passed and I saw a very good condition oled vita selling for just 120 usd. So I bought it and for quite a while after that I was asking why did it become so cheap after just a few years. I go ask around and then discovered the vita was abandoned by Sony by the time I got it but the handful of triple A games that was released on it are still great fun to play on the go even til this day.
The PlayStation vita to that today is one of, if not my most favorite and beloved game system of all time!!! Not only for the wonderful things that the system could do but also all the unique and amazing gaming experiences that you could get on the device and the fact that it was fully backwards compatible with the entire (Digital) PSP library as well as all the PlayStation classics on the PlayStation store could be downloaded and played on it, it was just a beast of a system!! It even had the custom soundtrack feature like you had on your Xbox360 back in the day where you could play whatever custom music that you had stored on your internal memory, you could play that in the background of your favorite games!!! I platinumed a few vita games in my time playing mine but I lost mine back in late 2018 and I’ve regretted it ever since!!!
I got a 2000 model. Love it. Got one not too long ago. Haven't looked back. It's one of the best handhelds I've ever used. I can't believe sony abandoned it. The games are great, and modding it will allow you to play retro games with retroarch and psp and ps1 games with adrenaline. The indie titles are great too. Too bad the sequels to certain indies are on 3ds. Sigh.
I got 3g model pin packed from my work place Asda it was sitting in warehouse for 5 years and I kept asking them why don’t u let me buy because it wasn’t scanning. Finally they allowed me two weeks ago for 80 pounds. Love the system got 32gb memory card as well.
It's been two years since I bought Vita from seller on my city and I still love it! Although Vita has trouble with games selection while it's life but the hardware and software on Vita is still holds up today considering Vita is 10 years old now.
Excellent video! Love my slim. While the OLED does look better, I'd trade it for the still crisp looking LCD in exchange for more battery life and a more convenient charging port.
Memorycard is very difficult to buy. My 32 GB card got corrupted. So I lost progress and had to download every game again. I downloaded Destruction Derby (PSone). Nostalgic for me. I bought Muramasa rebirth physically. But it was a US card. So for the dlc I had to buy it again digitally. Last game I bought physically was Space Hulk. This year. The store in the Netherlands still sells lots of Vita games. I was shocked the Switch felt so cheap compared to the Vita. The Vita is a quality product. No drifting, no cracking of the shell etc. I wish games like Turok 2 or other old shooters would get released on the Vita.
With the Media Server on your PS3 and PS4 and a Media Server on your Desktop, Laptop, or Tab; you can stream your music, videos, and pics to your PS3 or PS4 and then to your PSVita on the go, via Remote Play. It can also be done on the PSTV too. I have an extensive movie library on an external hard drive on my Desktop. With a good Wifi connection I can easily watch my movies while on the go. With the PSTV I can just bring it over to a friends house, connect it to their TV, connect to their Wifi, then connect to my PS3 or PS4 Remote Play, then connect to my Desktop, and start watching movies together. Cell phones today can't even do this. The PSVita was waaay ahead of it's time.
I like 1000 cuz its bulky. I have a big palm and a smaller device can hurt sometimes. My OLED screen is semi burned, I would never do this to my own device, it was bought like that. Thinking of buying an LCD for the time being. It emulates games well, PSP alone has so many games. On top of that, there are so many unofficial ports. Even has third party spotify lmao
I got my Vita day one and STILL play it daily. I have a pretty healthy physical collection of games and also a ton of digital titles. (I have four 64GB cards and one 32GB card. Not cheap. lol) Never modded the one I always use still.
Although the OLED Vita is great, I would recommended getting the Slim 2000 version in 2022. It normally goes for cheaper, uses a standard charger and not proprietary, and the screen isn't too noticeably different. Plus, its slimmer, lighter, and has more battery life.
People who watch and make these "STILL worth buying a PS VITA in 20**" (and beyond) I got a word to give u all... IT WILL ALWAYS BE WORTH IT, IT WAS WORTH BEFORE AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE WORTH REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS
Thanks for your video! Used to have one when they first came out and decided I want one again! Haven't really gamed in years, but the vita gets me excited again! What game are you playing in your video? It looks really good on the vita.
Honestly, I think they should bring the Vita back and update it to work with PS5 remote play and/or sync with your PlayStation account (to play games on your PS5 anywhere). I think they could also bring back the PS TV as a dock for the Vita (like the switch). I think it'd be a serious Switch competitor, and hey, I'd buy one.
I am big fan of your video from India. I fond off video games but am financially down. I enjoy seeing your videos feeling am holding the devices. Keep growing bro... I have a request? If you like to hear please respond me.
I love my ps vita slim! I got in 2020 premodded from a reseller on FB marketplace. I've added some rad games and ports since as well as 3dprinted grip for it, which I offer 3dprinting services for. I enjoy it more then my switch because the mad amount of games on it from NES all the way to San Andreas and Diablo.
I have a 3ds, ps vita, switch, steamdeck and I have to say the ps vita had the potential to be the best handheld console of all time, sony just ruined it with overpriced memory cards, lack of games, lack of love for their own system and not willing to drop the price of it like nintendo and steam did by taking a loss on the console and making that profit back with game sales. The hardware for a 2011 system was mind blowing, dual analog, OLED screen, powerful specs, triggers, touchscreen, speakers etc What the vita couleve been man.. Such a shame, I will never buy another sony handheld because they gave up on vita. Nintendo didn't give up on the wii u and that flopped as hard as the vita but they still made top tier games for that.
@@jakebodicoat2164 stop crying on r/vita dataknife. Stay salty to this video and keep up the copypasta on every ps vita video you can find because you aren't a true gamer hhahaahahha
My original ps vita OLED is 10 years old now. Its rubber on the analog thumb stick came off, and the other is already deteriorating. In 2019, the edge of the screen itself began to become yellow. But it is still working!
I wish I could have gotten into the PS Vita sooner. At least I got the platinum in Killzone Mercenary earlier this year. One of the main reasons why I'm playing with the PS Vita throughout this decade is because I have less free time to play video games than I used to. Plus, collecting stuff for older consoles such as the GBA, Game Boy, or GameCube costs an arm and a leg nowadays.
There is a very awesome shop where i live that buys and sells used tech and gives three year warranty with their used products. I ordered from it a Vita that was used for only two months back in 2013 and never used since and its in a perfect condition even today and its not that expensive it was only €200. I can't wait till it arrives .
It's amazing that anybody who actually gives this system a chance, they fall in love with it. It's an even bigger insult to the system since Sony pretty much abandoned it real quick. Hell, even developers didn't want to quit it cuz it was a great system to put games on as the install base was faithful and games SOLD really well on it. Back in the day, Sony made the system entirely with developer feedback exactly to attract developers and they did flock to it, but Sony just didn't care promoting it and supporting it as they decided to put 100% of their promotion efforts on the PS4 and the only mention of the Vita was as a "companion piece". My favorite games on it are definitely Soul Sacrifice and Freedom Wars. I also love Killzone Mercenary, Gravity Rush, Modnation Racers World Trip, Wipeout 2048 and Tearaway. Funny enough, I never even played Uncharted Golden Abyss and Persona 4 Golden. I find it quite annoying that it seems that most people who never had a PSVita these 2 games are the only games the system has since nobody shuts up about them. There's a huge library of stuff to play besides these 2 games without taking into consideration the PSP and PS1classic library the system runs because it has the PSP system software inside it. In essence, if you choose to hack it, the PSVita can run virtually every PSP game ever released including all PS1 games that the last PSP firmware was compatible with. It doesn't cover all of the PS1l ibrary as a handful of converted games (that aren't on the store) don't boot, others crash at specific points and unlike a PSP, you can't simulate a previous popsloader setting to run. Still it's a lot of bang for your buck in terms of what the system can do.
Unless it's very cheap, I'm not sure it's worth getting a mobile console if you have a smartphone and a decent controller to bolt on to it. You can play a lot of the most recent console games on your phone now with touchscreen controls or a controller. Check out my recent videos of WWE 2K22 and Star Wars: Squadrons plus many more being played on an iphone (either with touchscreen controls or a pad). Fine if you can get one very cheap but otherwise I'm not sure
I was a late adopter getting It literally when covid started In march of 2020 Used It to play PS1 and PSP games as well as some odd ps plus games, my only physical game Is the jak trilogy which Is cool to play portably but the framerate Is distracting, I plan to pick up sonic transformed as a multiplayer game but noone plays No Interest In modding It
got mine 2 days ago! got a mint slim 2003 model for £90... fully boxed like new! i was well lucky not a mark..gonna mod it and fet a trigger case! gta v is playable via remote play
Literally so little to choose from when it comes to the switch, I feel as If most of them are overpriced and not worth it. All the games that are worth it are oldish and most definitely are steep in price
is it worth getting one for 3 rhythm games and maybe gravity rush? i'm not a jrpg or indie game fan so those 4 games are the only ones i'd play. i also don't own any sony console besides a ps3 but i don't like the ps3
4000K GAMES psp ps1 snes nes sega retroarch atari n64 williams and Gottlieb pinball digital vita games on command. Pfba gameboy adrenaline open bor cps1 vectrex pc engine intellivision dragons lair Namco MAME i can go on i wish i would give nintendo my money when the VITA is wide open. 256gb modded slim The best hand held Ever Viva la Vita. Getting one for my son as he cant keep his hands off of mines. 🤠
I've mostly been playing the steam deck recently, which for me is the perfect ps vita successor, especially if you're a fan of modding since steam deck is already an open system out of the box, and within a few years it'll have more Sony first party games than the vita did. There's still a couple games like freedom wars I never got around to finishing, so I'll have to get a new vita at some point to play those, the GPU in my Vita seems to be dying, getting low framerates and stutters in most games, unfortunately, so I haven't picked it up in a long time.
Thats fair, but personally I have hardly used my Steamdeck due to how big the thing actually is. Even with the Switch on the Satisfye grip, it is still decently bigger in size. Thinking about selling it and hoping Valve comes out with a 'slim' model to reduce the overall size. No doubt the Steamdeck is an emulation powerhouse, but you can never go wrong with how portable and compact the Vita is compared to both the regular Switch and the Steamdeck.
@@cbgg1585 you could probably look into something like the aya neo air pro, i think it's a bit less powerful but its in between the size of the vita and the switch lite
@@Plumtopia You can't even find steam deck in stores. Also RedGamingTech on RUclips reported that Sony is trying to make some sort of switch device for ps5 and psvr2 in 2024. Steam deck is not a successor to ps vita. Also the games have to be certified in order to play them barring workarounds.

I wish games like Turok 2 or other old shooters would get released on the Vita.
Thank you for the comment. Vita is like a brick compared to the Switch isnt it.
With the Media Server on your PS3 and PS4 and a Media Server on your Desktop, Laptop, or Tab; you can stream your music, videos, and pics to your PS3 or PS4 and then to your PSVita on the go, via Remote Play. It can also be done on the PSTV too. I have an extensive movie library on an external hard drive on my Desktop. With a good Wifi connection I can easily watch my movies while on the go. With the PSTV I can just bring it over to a friends house, connect it to their TV, connect to their Wifi, then connect to my PS3 or PS4 Remote Play, then connect to my Desktop, and start watching movies together. Cell phones today can't even do this. The PSVita was waaay ahead of it's time.
Top 5 Favorite all time Systems!
I like 1000 cuz its bulky. I have a big palm and a smaller device can hurt sometimes. My OLED screen is semi burned, I would never do this to my own device, it was bought like that. Thinking of buying an LCD for the time being. It emulates games well, PSP alone has so many games. On top of that, there are so many unofficial ports. Even has third party spotify lmao
drop yo psn? Wat Games U play
I got my Vita day one and STILL play it daily. I have a pretty healthy physical collection of games and also a ton of digital titles. (I have four 64GB cards and one 32GB card. Not cheap. lol) Never modded the one I always use still.
There's a ton of games I still need to finish up on the PS Vita. I'm currently playing Earth Defense Force 2017 Portable.
Nice 👍🏻 That game is on my list ….. so many to play!!!!
There's an app for vita to remote play on PS5, haven't tried yet but I think I might be interesting
I have a Wii, Switch, 3DS, PS5, and a Vita..... and i must admit (a little shamefully) that I play my PS Vita more than any of the others
All you need is a Wii U … to play less than the vita 👍🏻
favorite feature(that u didnt mention ) is the gyro. i was playing borderlands 2 and realised that i can aim with the gyro. it also works in uncharted
Although the OLED Vita is great, I would recommended getting the Slim 2000 version in 2022. It normally goes for cheaper, uses a standard charger and not proprietary, and the screen isn't too noticeably different. Plus, its slimmer, lighter, and has more battery life.
People who watch and make these "STILL worth buying a PS VITA in 20**" (and beyond) I got a word to give u all...
IT WILL ALWAYS BE WORTH IT, IT WAS WORTH BEFORE AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE WORTH REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS
Always worth reiterating for those who think otherwise 👍🏻
I play my Vita daily. It's an awesome machine!
👍🏻
Thanks for your video!
Used to have one when they first came out and decided I want one again! Haven't really gamed in years, but the vita gets me excited again!
What game are you playing in your video? It looks really good on the vita.
Honestly, I think they should bring the Vita back and update it to work with PS5 remote play and/or sync with your PlayStation account (to play games on your PS5 anywhere). I think they could also bring back the PS TV as a dock for the Vita (like the switch). I think it'd be a serious Switch competitor, and hey, I'd buy one.
I am big fan of your video from India. I fond off video games but am financially down. I enjoy seeing your videos feeling am holding the devices. Keep growing bro... I have a request? If you like to hear please respond me.
Still have my launch vita and it works perfectly!
I own the same case! Thing is a beast
I absolutely love my Vitas and they’re all mod it and they’re strong.
Just ordered mine on ebay pretty excited
I love my ps Vita The 1000 model I play the NFS Mostwanted 2012 And all The NFS
I love my ps vita slim! I got in 2020 premodded from a reseller on FB marketplace. I've added some rad games and ports since as well as 3dprinted grip for it, which I offer 3dprinting services for. I enjoy it more then my switch because the mad amount of games on it from NES all the way to San Andreas and Diablo.
I have a 3ds, ps vita, switch, steamdeck and I have to say the ps vita had the potential to be the best handheld console of all time, sony just ruined it with overpriced memory cards, lack of games, lack of love for their own system and not willing to drop the price of it like nintendo and steam did by taking a loss on the console and making that profit back with game sales.
The hardware for a 2011 system was mind blowing, dual analog, OLED screen, powerful specs, triggers, touchscreen, speakers etc
What the vita couleve been man.. Such a shame, I will never buy another sony handheld because they gave up on vita.
Nintendo didn't give up on the wii u and that flopped as hard as the vita but they still made top tier games for that.
Stay salty to sony portables Nintendo switch fanboy lmaoooooooooo
@@DrSwitchDisrespectParody nintendo switch or steam deck are better tho u crazy obsessed vita fanboy
@@jakebodicoat2164 stop crying on r/vita dataknife. Stay salty to this video and keep up the copypasta on every ps vita video you can find because you aren't a true gamer hhahaahahha
My original ps vita OLED is 10 years old now. Its rubber on the analog thumb stick came off, and the other is already deteriorating. In 2019, the edge of the screen itself began to become yellow. But it is still working!
I always wanted one so bad, when it came out. But it just wasn't justifiable at the price point. All the tech was so cool, the rear touchpad etc.
In some countries it's still very expensive.
I wish I could have gotten into the PS Vita sooner. At least I got the platinum in Killzone Mercenary earlier this year.
One of the main reasons why I'm playing with the PS Vita throughout this decade is because I have less free time to play video games than I used to.
Plus, collecting stuff for older consoles such as the GBA, Game Boy, or GameCube costs an arm and a leg nowadays.
I just figured out yesterday that the Vita Themes slap hard
There is a very awesome shop where i live that buys and sells used tech and gives three year warranty with their used products. I ordered from it a Vita that was used for only two months back in 2013 and never used since and its in a perfect condition even today and its not that expensive it was only €200. I can't wait till it arrives .
Untrue gamer Nintendo switch fanboy lmaoooooooooo
@@DrSwitchDisrespectParody What? You drunk or something?
Got 4 of them, 1 for official account
1 modded. A slim model and another waiting to be modded
I have a modded 1000 model, and the P4Dancing edition 2000 model that is unmodded. Love em, and use them more than my Switch.
It's amazing that anybody who actually gives this system a chance, they fall in love with it.
It's an even bigger insult to the system since Sony pretty much abandoned it real quick.
Hell, even developers didn't want to quit it cuz it was a great system to put games on as the install base was faithful and games SOLD really well on it.
Back in the day, Sony made the system entirely with developer feedback exactly to attract developers and they did flock to it, but Sony just didn't care promoting it and supporting it as they decided to put 100% of their promotion efforts on the PS4 and the only mention of the Vita was as a "companion piece".
My favorite games on it are definitely Soul Sacrifice and Freedom Wars. I also love Killzone Mercenary, Gravity Rush, Modnation Racers World Trip, Wipeout 2048 and Tearaway.
Funny enough, I never even played Uncharted Golden Abyss and Persona 4 Golden. I find it quite annoying that it seems that most people who never had a PSVita these 2 games are the only games the system has since nobody shuts up about them. There's a huge library of stuff to play besides these 2 games without taking into consideration the PSP and PS1classic library the system runs because it has the PSP system software inside it. In essence, if you choose to hack it, the PSVita can run virtually every PSP game ever released including all PS1 games that the last PSP firmware was compatible with. It doesn't cover all of the PS1l ibrary as a handful of converted games (that aren't on the store) don't boot, others crash at specific points and unlike a PSP, you can't simulate a previous popsloader setting to run. Still it's a lot of bang for your buck in terms of what the system can do.
Halloween Forever is one of my favorites at any time of the year. It's on Switch now too I see.
Yep
Unless it's very cheap, I'm not sure it's worth getting a mobile console if you have a smartphone and a decent controller to bolt on to it. You can play a lot of the most recent console games on your phone now with touchscreen controls or a controller. Check out my recent videos of WWE 2K22 and Star Wars: Squadrons plus many more being played on an iphone (either with touchscreen controls or a pad). Fine if you can get one very cheap but otherwise I'm not sure
I was a late adopter getting It literally when covid started In march of 2020
Used It to play PS1 and PSP games as well as some odd ps plus games, my only physical game Is the jak trilogy which Is cool to play portably but the framerate Is distracting, I plan to pick up sonic transformed as a multiplayer game but noone plays
No Interest In modding It
Tearaway and gravity rush are the only games I've enjoyed on mine so far, not sure what else to play tbh
I love the Vita vids, keep it going bro
got mine 2 days ago! got a mint slim 2003 model for £90... fully boxed like new! i was well lucky not a mark..gonna mod it and fet a trigger case! gta v is playable via remote play
Can still get the 1000 and 2000 new online for around $300 US
Flycast is my new favorite lol
Yes it can - don't despair!
Modded Vita + PS4 remote play, Switch, Steamdeck and PS5… gaming bliss
Love it.
I hacked mine.
Free fun on the OLED.
And gravity rush
Is it possible to download chrome or other browser in it and use some android app like whatsapp in psvita ?
Nintendo has few great games of third party. And their first party games are almost for kids. I wish Sony make another handheld machine.
Literally so little to choose from when it comes to the switch, I feel as If most of them are overpriced and not worth it. All the games that are worth it are oldish and most definitely are steep in price
Currently using my white 1001 model everyday and using it now while at work while the video plays
Perfect 🤩 👍🏻Thank you.
Does it have any problem? Like,oled screen can burn
The psvita is the greatest person machine and the psp hidden gems like sonic rivals
bonus feature, some digital games in the store you buy, you will be able to play on the vita and the ps3.
I thought sony removed transferring games from vita to ps3
I hope the vita gets supported just like the dreamcast currently is
is it worth getting one for 3 rhythm games and maybe gravity rush? i'm not a jrpg or indie game fan so those 4 games are the only ones i'd play. i also don't own any sony console besides a ps3 but i don't like the ps3
If you can get one for the right money, it’s well worth it.
@@MainCave how much would be too much in your opinion? Cheapest i found one is 120$

Made several attempts to buy one back then but didn’t . 🤔
Great handheld I’m still surprised people let this one go over their heads
What web should I buy it on?
And yet, I sold all 5 of mine, 4 PSPs, and my PSP Go two days ago. (I kept a couple of PS TVs)
I've mostly been playing the steam deck recently, which for me is the perfect ps vita successor, especially if you're a fan of modding since steam deck is already an open system out of the box, and within a few years it'll have more Sony first party games than the vita did.
There's still a couple games like freedom wars I never got around to finishing, so I'll have to get a new vita at some point to play those, the GPU in my Vita seems to be dying, getting low framerates and stutters in most games, unfortunately, so I haven't picked it up in a long time.
Thats fair, but personally I have hardly used my Steamdeck due to how big the thing actually is. Even with the Switch on the Satisfye grip, it is still decently bigger in size. Thinking about selling it and hoping Valve comes out with a 'slim' model to reduce the overall size.
No doubt the Steamdeck is an emulation powerhouse, but you can never go wrong with how portable and compact the Vita is compared to both the regular Switch and the Steamdeck.
@@cbgg1585 you could probably look into something like the aya neo air pro, i think it's a bit less powerful but its in between the size of the vita and the switch lite
Stay butthurt over the ps vita steam deck corporate slave fanboy lmaoooooooooo
Have fun being triggered to a ps5 portable lol
@@PSPortalShitpostingAntiSwitch what? What does that even mean?
@@Plumtopia You can't even find steam deck in stores. Also RedGamingTech on RUclips reported that Sony is trying to make some sort of switch device for ps5 and psvr2 in 2024. Steam deck is not a successor to ps vita. Also the games have to be certified in order to play them barring workarounds.
Can you please recommend a decent refurbished shop or business where we can browse a catalog of preowned vetoes and purchase at a decent price???
I’m planning on getting one next month but I don’t wanna pay $400!!!
Hi there, I’m not in the US so not sure, but i hope someone reads this from the US and can help you out 👍🏻
@@MainCave
I’m sorry, I meant if you knew of any Stores that deals in this kinda thing Online??
I know there is pretty much no physical stores that actually sale them.. at least not in my area or the entire state for that matter
I've had a new switch in box for last 3 years , I play this more
As much as I enjoy the selection on my 3ds, only on the vita I can natively play psp and ps1 and God of war and sly
Device was dated, now we need play retro game on win max 2 with 1600P screen
Couldn't a few Vita games be ported to Ps Plus and utilize the Dualsense touchpad if needed?
Anyone that hasn't hacked their vita seriously needs to. It's a whole new world and easy in 2023
vita still has a ton of games the switch will never have; one of my most favorite handhelds of all time
