Sony really neglected the Vita but it's cool how the community has kept it alive.
PS Vita when homebrewed is unbelievably entertaining. Still relevant in 2024 IMO, plus I love doing remote play on it with my PS4 Pro! There are new homebrew ports/games/programs coming out every week. So much fun. I have a Switch, PS4 Pro, a CFW PS3 Slim, a CFW Wii, and a DS Lite (with a flashcart) and I play the PS Vita extremely frequently. It's pretty awesome. 10/10 recommended from me!
Definitely a fantastic console. I’m writing a full review for it and the PSP.
its good console on the go, but ps3 is much better in all ways and cheaper. Example if PS Vita in not very good conditions 100eur, then PS3 half the price of Vita, that means 40-50eur. And PS3 have everything the same and much much more than PS Vita. By the way PS3 have many private servers where you can play online revived games.
Oh yeah dude I love the PS3. I heard they just revived the GTA Online servers for PS3! Dude, that is such good news... Long live the PS3 as well! An amazing console during some of the best times in video gaming history, no doubt. :D @@igorispodpruznikovas5322
Same. I use my Vita daily. Great little device. I also love that it is truly portable. It goes in my bag everywhere I go.
I bought a vita a while ago and I still use it since it
Has alot of homebrew you can mess around with and experiment with and the amount of ports and fan games it can run is insane it’s such a good console MOD YOUR CONSOLE
this was an amazing video!! looking forward to the upcoming review. i was the lead graphic designer for all of the LiveArea assets for DaedalusX64 and Flycast.
Thanks! The upcoming review got delayed a bit cause I had to order new thumbsticks. Right after this video went up, the left one failed. So I'm gonna make a video about that first! Just my luck!
The rubber on the joysticks is depended on how you take care of it. I still got my OLED vita from 2012 and the rubber’s condition did not degrade/get sticky at all(yes, it has wear). All these years later, it only has one tiny scratch on the back touchpad and still looks excellent.
Great review
Got one on eBay today I can’t wait to have it
My flight the other day was delayed 3 hours. Now here I am shopping for something to make sure I'm never bored at the airport again 😅.
I have three 1000 series vitas and one early 2000. All the thumbsticks are still in perfect condition. Maybe the last revision used different materials?
its definetely bad use, i had a vita 1000 and its thumbstick were the first thing i noticed when it arrived, super sticky and were wearing down
I just purchased one thru eBay and I'm excited to get it in my sweaty hands. Of course with the ability to acquire games via non resale ways. I had the PSP and Vita years ago and let them go. Now I'm still a gamer with two kids I love introducing to my kids the things I played growing up and theatric movies and shows.
Just bought myself one, cant wait!
This video was so good. I would watch every little detail about the vita prerelease in high school and all the features kept blowing my mind (the augmented reality, console graphics, back touchpad, etc.). I bought a vita in 2015 after becoming an adult and being able to afford one and finally live out that dream. Sony already threw it to the side and all the extra cost of everything really turned me off about it so I only bought uncharted. I just dusted it off after 9 years due to the modding becoming so easy on it and it’s been really awesome how good it is. The only thing I wish it can do is run ps2 games and my life would be complete but that is impossible. Can’t wait for the review
I have my vita unmodded because I like my consoles oem. I only have 1 physical game (Danganronpa despair girls) and I also have digital PS1 games and a few others I purchased. I’m a big fan of the form factor. Consoles like the switch and steam deck are NOT actually portable. The vita can easily fit in a pocket.
I loved my Vita for a few years. I pulled it out recently and I'm feeling my age now. The screen is to small for my eyes now lol. It was a good device though. It needed r2/l2 triggers. The memory cards were ridiculously over priced too. The remote play didn't live up to promise either.
So I'm thinking about buying a Vita, but I have to agree. The Ps Portal isn't a good product
Link to the joystick caps? The ones I got won’t allow the joystick to be fully pressed forward.
Mine actually do the same thing… I’m currently hunting for a different set
Your comment on if Sony doesn't care about older hardware that they shouldn't care how we get said programs was spectacular. I feel the same way as well.
And not just that, getting the games, if you want all of them, is damn near improbable. On top of a 300 bubble limit on each vita and the 64gb proprietary memory cards being astronomically expensive, it makes more sense to get an sd2vita and jail break it. I think I did the math once and you'd need like a handful if not like severallll(7-8)vitas alone to have every game on every vita considering it's 300 limit lol
My vita is life and it is still stock to this day. I do all my emulation on my deck, I want the vita to remain pure (for now).
Of games didn’t become so scalped and pricy, I probably would have left mine stock too
Mod it noob
You mentioned Skype. This no longer works to my knowledge, but back in the day we could use the 3g connection and a dedicated Skype number for a cheap cell plan alternative. Not without issues, but cool as an option.
If memory serves, it was $15 for the 3g plan and $2.50 for the Skype number?
2:12 It's probably been said already but just a reminder, the PS Vita 2000 only had 1gb of internal storage that was made accessible to you and it was really only there for save data storage as most games would easily eat up 1gb on the Vita. Its your initial thoughts but it's not much of an upgrade spec wise (especially compared to when Sony gave the PSP Go 16gbs of built in storage).
I love the vita slim I own all types of handhelds neo pockets. all the way up to the switch. but the vita gets the most playtime. Plus, I have 5 of them.
You’ve inspired me to make a video of my PS Vita where I’ve “unlocked” its full potential and done the maximum I can to it. Check it out and let me know your thoughts on it if you get a moment 👀
There is internal memory in the OLED version as well, but it's not activated by default. Using CFW it can be activated, and then the only difference between the two models is the charging port and the screen. And the OLED version feeling more solid. It's also possible to replace the proprietary charging port with a USB C port, but that takes some soldering skill. That said, I have both, and there isn't much difference in practice. I prefer the OLED version, but not by much.
To be fair, both storage types are kind of useless for installing games, but that is good to know! I'll keep that in mind if I ever manage track down a PS Vita 1000 model that isn't either really beat up or WAY overpriced.
@@GarrettCrespo The main reason to have internal memory is to install the CFW and drivers on it. Without it, there has to be a Sony memory card in the device for that. That used to be the main reason to avoid the OLED version. Now that isn't a problem anymore.
I got a nice, "cosmic red" 1000 from Japan, which I adore. I don't dare take it outside the house. That's why I also have a 2000. ;)
Gotta love being able to modify the Vita. Thank you, Unix-like software!
@@lazyhominid it's impossible to replace the battery in a red or blue Vita 1000. They have a different size battery to motherboard plug, and nobody sells new Vita batteries that have that size plug.
Those batteries have a slightly different model number (SP65X) than black, white, and silver Vita 1000 batteries because Sony included a different motherboard in the red and blue 1000s.
Anyway, you'll understand once you try to install a new battery.
@@subtegral The Oxyll mod will work fine, and let me add a Note 9 battery.
I got 3 ps vita I love it I got Silver gray, white with black frame and Aqua blue Ps vita my favorite definitely is the white one second silver and 3rd the Aqua blue one I love your Full white ps vita looks nice I’m thinking of getting another ps vita I don’t know which one I kind of want the white pink it looks nice too
I bought the white ps vita that came with assassins creed 3 liberty years ago. Played it maybe three hours and never since. Its still in the box and in the foam pouch with all the inserts. Brand new condition like when i bought it. Its now 2024 so here I am because I want to give it a second life. 😊
you def should, even ignoring its own library it has some amazing ports and homebrew at the momment.
@@ykjali Apparently the one thing not in the box is the charger lol. Even have the screen protectors! Had to order a new one. Will definitely be using pkgj adrenaline etc. I also have the red chains of Olympus PSP but it needs a new battery.
@@TwoGendersOnly that's probably the coolest psp there is
I don't know which one to get pa vita or Nintendo switch can be modded with PS vita games to which one I should get
Can it be modded with psvita games
There are two downgrade... 1000 had hall effect joysticks and oled screen... 2000 have normal joysticks and LCD panel
Wow region free 😮
me and my brother have ps vita oth 1000 he has the 3g model and i have the wifi only ...... but his screen has more saturated colors how ? there are no mods my colors look pale compared to his ? is it because i will always have fll brightness while he would always have low brightness is that why my colors look washed up ? or what is it ?
That difference in brightness can change how the OLED display has aged. The pixels on the brighter one have probably begun to wear out.
I found a vita in my sock drawer I forgot I bought the darn thing. 😅
About to hack it fosho! Good times!
I can’t connect to the PlayStation on my vita
PSVida or PSVi'T'a
Me personally i only play the PSVITA for Mortal Kombat and Injustice other than that i really hate the PSVITA
Play assassin creed 3 or god of war. Trust me you don't want to miss it
vita
this guy thinks he's a comedian xD
Just out here doing my best! 😁
tattos discredits your judgement to me
That's very close minded and rude of you. Why judge someone before hearing them out?
Wtf is wrong with you?
why?
weirdest comment i've seen in a while
