Why I Liked PS Vita More Than PSP
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2019
- Even though it's 2019 the PS Vita isn't dead! Well, Sony did stop manufacturing them but we're still getting new games. That, and me recently playing my PSP got me thinking. Between both of Sony's handhelds, the PS Vita just knocked it out of the park. The PSP will always hold its place in the industry for what it accomplished, but quite honestly PlayStation's biggest failure is the real winner. (And if you're actually reading this, wouldn't you agree Kung Fu Hustle was a fantastic movie?)

I think SONY should try to make another handheld. Just avoid custom memory cards and add L2/R2 triggers
Tomáš Kořínek PS Reborn lmao
Can't you buy L2 and R2 triggers for the touch pad?
jo no tomyku ja bich bil taki rat no
And add ps2, ps3 games ports or just... compatibility with those game consoles! That would be a best handheld ever no matter it could cost.
Bro why did you scream Sony so pointlessly?
Everyone who own PSvita always love it, except Sony
a ps vita with out Henkaku is a brick
Yeah. Is a monster!
sony let us down thats all - the vita is amazing
Yep
I am in heaven still rocking my psp vita from 2011.....
When the psp was loading up GTA liberty city stories and i could here that disc spinning..it took me way back..☺🌑
Ikr, I know most people think it’s annoying but I really like the disc spinning sound
Whenever someone hears the spinning disc they always ask me why am I breathing so weird
Man...

@@wistful3631 I had that happen to me once too!
I still play my PS Vita. I love it. There is a Vita community still going strong!!
JoyStickGuru and Sony is still actively trying to kill it!
@@caelvm133 Eh if that were true they wouldn't allow ANY releases for it.
Its a JRPG machine.....so many great games. A lot of the action/adventure games were trying to be console style games.....and they just didn’t work out (Uncharted).
The jest thing about Vita for me, besides the JRPGs, are the PS1/PS2 classics, and that you can load PSP games via PS3. I wish they were making many more classic games available for Vita. Its really too bad.
With a proper grip for Vita, giving access to all shoulder buttons and the awkward rear touchpad.....its an awesome system.

@@Deeplycloseted435 Absolutely LOVE it. I remember "Transfarring" Command and Conquer Red Alert from my PS3 and re-mapping the controls for modern gaming. Still one of my fav games to play. I rather liked Uncharted on Vita though. Killzone Mercenary was ACE too. WipEout 2048 was AMAZING on it too.
Well the PSP at least had a higher resolution than the 3DS
2004 console had higher resolution than 2011 console lul
The same way the Genesis renders games at the higher resolution than the Snes (320 horizontal vs 256). The Nintendo 3DS easily could at least have been a 1-1 Gamecube or even a Wii, and that would have been amazing, but this is Nintendo we're talking about here. Even though keeping game development costs low for a handheld is a great strategy, it could at least have been noticeably better than PSP.
@@Radek494 3DS = 240p, PSP = 276p, PS Vita = 544p.
The 3D on the 3DS kind of mitigates the low resolution and kind of makes things sharper, but then barely anyone uses the 3D lol
3ds has 2 screens. I love both but these are gaming machines after all and that's where nintendo won
Am I the only person who find the PSP's disk noise as nostalgic?
nope, love it too :)
It's striking my heart every time.
Y'all not alone😂😂
I have a psp that's haked
No, that scratch like noise will always hit hard
wait what???? I also have the launch PSP but never got Spider-Man 2?!?!?!??!?!?
I know me neither
It only came with the 1000 model and it was an online code
@@carrot_stics4083 I had the 1000 and don’t remember getting spider man
It was in the Value Pack which a pouch and headphones. Got mine from Target.
@@wellfedced I had the value pack too
Only issue with the vita was the memory cards, however with recent homebrews and the current play around using a regulat SD card with an adapter it's become the best handheld.
I really want one now lol
@@StevePlaysSteveplaysyotube you can get them for cheap now. Recently bought a 1000 series for $128, fresh off the box too with a 4Gb memory in it

The sound of the disk loading up on the psp made me have so many memories come flooding back.
I always got worried when the disk made a "Prrrr" sound. I remember that gta LCS got glitched out because of the broken UMD
I've hacked my Vita so it can play PSP games so it is the ultimate handheld... At least until the Switch gets a better lineup.
You can play PSP games on it without hacking though
Although PS Vita is nice too.
@UCtGj1S1tH6ydbcmC6MSTRBA *indie games. Or basically just pixelated/2D games
@@RayCarrot not all of them. Remember, this was back in the day when not every game was available as a download.
Also, I'm able to use Micro SD cards which are cheaper than both PSP and Vita cards.
I prefer the PS Vita's double analog stick design, but I wish it had triggers along with the shoulder buttons. I still really love the VITA and I wish Sony supported it properly.
You'll love the Switch Lite :)
The buttons on Vita is small
@leo mendoza Lol
@@TRUMPKILLA really? I see a lot of attachments with L2/R2 and L3/R3 available and they cost cheap.
@@libardomm.trasimaco the switch has problematic analog sticks. I also don't like the position of them. I prefer them placed inward than aligned with the other buttons.
My Vita and PSP still are sitting on my PS4 pro right now. Still love them.
I'm only just now getting into the PSP and I gotta be honest, I'm pretty impressed with how well a lot of these games hold up; I think they compare favorably to a lot of DS games. I also get a real kick out of the disc drive. It feels like it's alive. I love old anachronistic tech.
Most of the psp games looks better than 3ds games

ps vita was too expensive $249? if memory isn't fuzzy that was more expensive than the wii or ds.
psp was a gem good JRPG machine and decent ports for handhelds. ryan psp emulator actually fixes the quality of these games just a side note.
recently beat Lego harry potter in psp and it was awesome.
250+100+ game+ screen protector, carrying case....👀👀👀big ballers only...lol
Well, yeah, you could get a 360 or a PS3 for the Vita's total price w/memory card, so a Wii and definitely a DS was less expensive.
Sony tried a launch price announcement at that years E3, they matched the price of the 3DS (before we knew the added cost of memory cards), but Nintendo reacted and dropped the price before the Vita launched.
The Vita itself was not too expensive, however the memory cards were really expensive, and you could tell MicroSD cards were a lot cheaper. This prevented many people from buying more games for their PS Vita. The PS Vita not having a MicroSD card slot was the critical mistake.
Wii was $249 Ds was $149
@@danielgomez7236 I don't disagree with you. I just wonder how the drm / copy protection for Vita games on SD cards would work.
In my opinion PSP is the greatest handheld system of all time and far superior to the PS Vita. The PSP's game library was insane and also had a great movie library as well. It was literally a portable PS2 which in my opinion is the greatest console of all time. I did like how they switched to cartridges instead of umd disc on PS Vita and the two thumbsticks are great but the PS Vita's library is lacking a lot compared to all the great 3rd party games on PSP.
Dont forgot there is also ps3 games in psp
@@ziedkarmndi2722 yeah I know like UFC 2010 that was also a PS3 game.
@@kang6914 yes and more
You can play all those games on the vita
@@JustSomeGuy900 are you sure you can play ALL psp games on the Vita ??? If so please tell me how. So far all I know is that you can buy psp games from the vita store, buy them on ps3 store and transfer them to your vita, or I think you could buy psp games from the ps website and download them to your Vita. What if there is a psp game that I can't find on either of those methods, how will I play it on ps vita ?
The PS Vita could have been great if it had exclusives and games lineup like the PSP was.
Yes
I enjoy the games I have on vita more than what I had on psp with cod,killzone,god of war,ninja gaiden,uncharted as a few examples though psp did have quantity and variety on its side and I had way more games overall on psp
Community loved it, Sony don't
Ps vita is good, but i really wanted a r2 and l2 button. The touch panel sucks.
Buy the grip.
Grip helps, but not perfect...extra analog stick lovely tho
Yeah i have the grip, but this should be at the beginning.
If they hadn’t included the touch panel the cost would have been cheaper and that alone would have sold more consoles. Also yeah it sucked. Games that require it just made the PSTV feel more obsolete and contributed to that failing. That touch pad shouldn’t have been a thing man.
@@asadavis9532 This is my opinion: No touch panel, no camera, no 3g version, no expensive memory cards, r2 l2 buttons, and use the rest of the money to make ps2 emulation posible.
As someone who owns every system Sony has released, I still enjoy my psp and vita BOTH a lot! PSP had a very diverse library including tons of first and third party games. Vita was superior technically. But the library is not nearly as robust. I love both and wouldn’t throw either one under the bus. 💪😎👍
Adrenaline:
Is the game “the bigs 2” available on the Vita?
I own both and love handheld systems more so than home consoles. I still think the SONY PSP is better, because it had much more games that I like to play; RPG’s, Racing, side scrollers, shooters, and brawlers!
I love the SONY PS VITA, because of it’s potential and the graphic capabilities. Too bad, not many developers, consumers, or even SONY cared. A wasted opportunity and potential that was never fully realized. Imagine Contra, Street Fighter, Dark Souls, Devil May Cry, God of War, and Resident Evil on the handheld.
You can play all those games on the Vita and more. That's the point.
My dad had a modded psp and I thought he was some crazy hacker
Lol
My parents bought me a PSP for Christmas and I got Monster Hunter Freedom 2 with it. I was captivated by it and played it everywhere I went.
Same with Midnight Club 3 and Ape Academy
Mystic: This is why i like PS Vita More Than PSP
Me: Because now you can play psp games on PS Vita but can't play PS Vita games on PSP.
VolTReX Gamer Z that’s like saying I can’t play black ops 2 on my PlayStation
Is true
Because we have the technology for backwards compat but I don’t think we have forwards compat yet.
You can play a myriad of emulators on psp. Who cares that you can't play ps vita games on it anyway
Yup that's how I feel.
Honestly the nostalgia for me with the psp is crazy. I honestly barely remember not having a second stick and for some reason the sound of the disc spinning made me feel like I was holding the future. It’s sleek square design still feels cooler to me too.
Yessir.... The psp was the best... Game library was insanely good and the ergonomics of the psp feels great... I also like the classic charge port for the psp which never breaks down like usb ports do
I play my ps vita everyday.. Such an underrated system. Videos like this, keep it alive. 😊 Thank you chief. 👍
What games do u play? I'm curious
@@iitsmel0836 good question.. 🤔 uncharted, new n tasty, few psp games,, like tomb raider legend, and anniversary. Cod,, I know the campaign is crrrrap..

Hey man... can i get some help? I wanna buy a ps vita but i gotta know. Can i still buy games online and play them? Like persona 4&3. Thanks for the help!
I dont know why but I like my PSP more than my Vita, maybe because its nostalgia to me!
Vita had potential, but Sony didn't support it
Same....
Same i like psp more than vita
I didn't buy the Vita because the memory cards were so expensive , but I sure enjoyed the PSP and the UMD movies.
If the vita had micro sd cards and more support from Sony it would’ve done extremely well.
You can add micro sd card,its called SD2VITA
kwite ok ik that but not everyone hacked the vita and it isn’t widely known and supported by Sony of course
I’m fine with the propriety cards but I wish they would price them at the same amount as micro SD cards
There not gonna get cheaper anytime soon
The PSP is the greatest handheld ever made so far.
The V wishes it was the PSP at night.
My condolences to all of you who missed the boat.
Out of all the consoles I’ve ever had the PSP is still my favourite
Seriously though, I rate PSP up there with the PS1 and 2, and that's hard to match
TranscendingPolygons I play tons of PSP games on Vita. You just need a working PS3 to make this happen. Any downloadable PSP game will transfer to Vita. Its a much better screen, twin analog sticks, and with a grip, you have 4 proper shoulder buttons, including buttons for the rear touchpad. In fact, I think I have more PSP games on Vita, than Vita games. PSP has a better library.
Plus you can play Me & My Katamari without awkwardly using the D-Pad and buttons. That makes the Vita a 10/10 IMO.
U must not own a Vita...or u would know that u just made a stupid statement
I bought my PSP used shortly after I got a Vita. I have to say, I enjoyed the PSP more. I’m still impressed that Sony released this thing in 2004. When you hack it and load all your games on a 32GB SD card it’s very fast and you don’t need to carry UMDs with you. Installing a custom firmware just takes a few minutes. Doing that on the Vita is a pain. Also I used this thing to play so many GBA games. The emulator was perfect! All the amazing Super Mario Games on such a nice and big display! I loved it.
PSP was the first time I experienced Metal Gear Solid 1, I will never forget how much fun I had with that. It basically made me into the super-fan I am now.
I liked how they used the XMB as a menu. It was nice and fast.
Also it was so easy to load music and videos on it. No need for some weird Content Manager. The PC just detects it as a mass storage. I still use it as a media consumption device from time to time.
But I respect your opinion, Ryan. Still a great video. Looking forward to the next LTPS on friday! :)
3:52 imagine being on a plane and a dude keeps freaking out about cluster bombs
I actually picked up my PSP lately again. And I have to say, it's still great. I'm playing games that I missed back then like Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Some games look awful but a lot of them still hold up decently.
Every time I see your documentaries, it makes me wanna bust out my PSP or whatever hardware you’re talking about. The PSP had some great RPGs that I’d still love to have remasters of.
I remember always trying to crack open the UMD cases to try and get to the game discs inside when I was little
@@RuralRobin did it work after that or no?
PSP was awesome because of the custom firmware. My PSP was on a custom firmware since the early 1.5 days. If you didn't partake in the custom firmware fun, then you were missing out. Plus you could use an SD card with adapter. The PSP Slim has a better screen compared the the OG. Ended up getting a second gen Slim for the better screen and battery life to replace my original. Along with a 64gb sd card, it made for a killer system in the day. PSP also had more killer games, even if most came later in life. IMO the PSP is better than the DS. Even if the DS sold more. PSP Games, PS1 Games, Emulators, Homebrew. It was a crazy time.
Vita never had that experience. It had a few great games. But without the homebrew the system just didn't hold up. The 3DS is by far the better handheld. The Vita's game library is more comparable to the DS, a few standouts and a bunch of shovelware. The Vita is pretty must a mobile Indy platform, and that platform moved on to the Switch as the successor.
The Vita is nice modded, but I have trouble trying to recommend it over the vastly better 3DS library. Modded with a CFW the 3DS is just epic, the 3DS IMO has the best game library of any handheld Nintendo console ever made. The Switch has yet to have a game lineup to match it. I really wanted a epic successor to the PSP, the Vita was not it. The Vita community couldn't touch the huge PSP community, the mod scene was crazy back then. A Doom Emulator was one of the early ports. Playing Doom on the go, filling it up with movies/music, tons of games. It was what we had before smartphones were even a thing. Don't forget that.
I use my psp slim for on the go retro gaming its awesome to play gba games on it. I use a memory stick to micro sd adapter as well. Got like 64gb storage on mine lol. Even ps1 games works so well.
nope vita libraries are awesome aswell games like ninja gaiden, uncharted, killzone, lbp, persona, digimon, jet set radio list goes on
Psp had more diversity but I wanted a 2nd analog for my shooters and felt many of the games I had should have been harder(complexity) to beat so I was bored by the 4th-5th year. I'm still happy with vita 7 years later and have assassins creed liberation,cod black ops declassified,killzone mercenary,god of war collection,need for speed most wanted, ninja gaiden 1-2,mortal kombat,resident evil revelations 2,the walking dead season 1-2, the amazing spiderman, unit 13 and uncharted golden abyss. But vita didn't get popular games like GTA(psp highest seller) and star wars and the main reason for its commercial failure IMO
Yeah 3ds have a huge library, currently stuck on 2 games

Fuck the disc sound of the psp is nostalgic from nights as a kid playing it under the blanket
I recently received an extra, fat model, PSP that my buddy had in return for replacing the screen on his slim. I wanted one of these when I was a kid, but couldn't afford it. So it's nice to be able to get one now well after the platform has reached maturity. Plenty of games available to choose from, and easy to softmod thus giving me access to even more. I've tried emulating GBA on my phones before, but I couldn't stand it with the onscreen controls. It feels so much more natural on physical hardware, so the PSP really excels here for me.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with this as a portable gaming device. Especially as I get more into older games, since most newer games lack any real love.
When I'm ready, I might grab myself a Vita, if I can find something on the platform that I'm interested in game-wise (I haven't looked yet, as I'm currently quite satisfied). Good news is that a used Vita is pretty affordable. I bet it'll be even more so when I'm get around to getting one.

I bought my PSVita last year, since my PSP 1000 died around then, and I do love it quite a bit (mostly cause a modded Vita can do a lot), buuut I think you're downplaying the PSP a lot here.
Also, even though I do agree with you when it comes to controls, saying the PSP's graphics were basically "a portable PS1" is a bit of a stretch, imo...
Nachokuma yeah u right the psp was way better than the ps1
I love the PSP more than the VITA...for starters it had better games overall + had a better XMB (navigational menu). The VITA mainly had FPS and RPG games and the menu had stupid bubble icons.
@@DungarooTV I agree, the XMB feels (and looks) far better than those bubbles, and its games library is way better!
I mostly love the Vita basically, cause I modded mine, and with that done, you basically have a PSP in hands. So it's a 2 in 1 kinda deal, but if it wasn't for that... I guess I'd still prefer the PSP more.
True
It's not a stretch, it's a flat out lie. It's like this guy never played ps1 or psp
It's a shame Sony thinks mobile games killed handheld gaming, It would be amazing to see what Sony could do with a "psvita 2" and how they'd approach handheld gaming in the next generation. Oh well
Ez, just make the vita have the capability to play mobile games.

@@kazutoyoichi1659 xperia play
Modded my Vita the other day, installed all my old PSP games... the nostalgia hit soo hard!
i feel that the psp and the 3ds were partly a huge success because it allowed a way of effectively extending the ps2 era of game quality. If devs didnt want to have the expense of developing HD visuals for the consoles, the handhelds were a really appealing option.
I mean square definitely took advantage of this in particular with all of it's kingdom hearts spin offs and bravely default ( the latter of which kept the winning ps1 final fantasy formula alive and well, world map and all)
I have heard the same argument for the Gameboy line, by extending the "NES", then "SNES era of game quality".
Great video! Another flaw with the UMD Movies is either DVD's that came with an extra disc for a digital copy of the film or digital codes the format usually worked with the PSP so it did defeat the purpose of UMD movies!
nobody is watching movies on UMD except this guy lol. Great videos keep up the amazing work.
As far as graphics most psp games have actually aged pretty well imo, controls are a different story though
Ps vita also have psp games true
PSP to the Vita is what PS2 was for the PS3 (A system with such a legacy that it's successor couldn't hope to fill it's shoes).
Well PS3 was a success in the end but it had tough competition with the 360, but the Vita was massacred by Sony themselves sadly :( But I get your point though. PS3 would have gotten more sales if it released in 05' and if it wasn't so expensive at launch.
Ps3 came back in 2009 with uncharted 2 and the library was insane after that.
@@DawgDanger the PS3 had a great reason to be the price it was: a built in PS One, a built in PS2, a built in DVD and Blu Ray Player, plus the PS3 itself, all that together would've costed alot of money separately
I love how they tried to fix the no second analog stick thing by mapping the camera to the shoulder button didn't work very well though
I actually LOVE my PSP. I've had it for years and it still works great. I also have the Vita, which is great too, but I find myself always going back to my PSP.
Yes, these are exactly my thoughts as well.
Why?
@@pamreis Because I just love the games for it. Also, I can deal with the single analogue stick. Doesn't bother me at all.
@@wleon4068 thanks thats great 💜
There's also the fact that the Vita has a native PSP emulator built into it.. and after a bit of hacking, you can access it via Adrenaline for full CFW PSP goodness!
I loved my PSP back in the day, and the hacking scene around it was awesome too, but the Vita honestly just replaces it completely. I literally haven't touched my PSP after getting my Vita, and I think that's a good thing. In that sense, the Vita has lived up to what it was supposed to be as a second generation Sony handheld.
Sir Charles It's not an emulator. I don't know why people keep on saying that. The vita actually play psp games natively, natively as in it has a psp MIPS hardware soldered inside the unit.

I absolutely love the Vita, and it holds a special place for me for keeping me sane during a deployment to Afghanistan back in 2013-14. Now though, I have a hacked PSTV (whitelisted) with a USB stick holding all my PSP games on the big screen, as portable gaming isn't as much a need for me anymore, but gives me finally a good way to play the 100+ games I own for both consoles on the big screen.

I loved playing tekken dark resurrecc and 6 on it, and now that I think about it, the whole series was way ahead of its time : )
Come on! The psp was amazing even with his flaws, i still play it and use it to play ps1 games even though im a pc gamer
Yup, the PSP plays PS1 games really well, especially when you can hook it to the TV.
shut up 13 year old boi
@@yoshikagekira481 go buy youself an inslut unatended adult
Can't say I agree,Most of the vita game library is just weeb and Indy games.The PSP had alot more variety and alot more 3rd party support in general.
@referral madness and if you like Hatsune Miku and rythm games
All the anime shit probably ruined the vitas appeal to a normal person anyway
Project diva F 2nd wasn't good enough
coming from an otaku that is reeeeeeeeeaaaaaaalyyyyyyyyy muuuuuuuuuuuuuch
it's slow compared to PSP (not the speed of the console, but the speed of the notes wasn't a big deal)
i see videos of PDF2nd and say "i can fucking perfect that with one hand!!!"
Agree
You mean like killzone and uncharted? Vita had a lot of western stuff for a handheld. Most don't get a lot or they do and its garbage
I love this video. Just had to rewatch it again for the third time. ;) Maybe it’s time for another Vita video?
6:53 words can hardly express my satisfaction when I hear that adorable tiny disc spinning. Like I literally came in my pants. Felt fucking high from that, you gotta new sub now.
Edit: use headphones fam
The only thing I can say that's better with the psp is the fact it had support and had a huge library of great games, vita has some good games but not nearly as many as the psp
Vita is the reason that I did not buy a Switch, and I never regret buying this. I can play all the games that I like on the go, Vita, PSP and PS1, you name it. Think of it as a portable PS3. It's too bad that there aren't many racing games for Vita like how PSP had.
The PSP library is heaven for racing games, Japanese imports, RPGs, and fighting games.
PSP was way too far ahead of its time. Still crazy that it was pretty much a PS2 in your pocket.
sadly no PS2 emulator yet
Well i wish i owned a vita but it's still expensive. I think the vita will become collectable in the future though because the bad sales numbers.
Use OfferUp. I find good prices on vitas every few days
@@ooonyxxx I don't live in America :/
You can find them cheap used but brand new will run you about 200
Yeah love one
DripGxd_Cam eh honestly not worth it for over 120$
My PSP took 10 years before the knob fell of for the first time but every console is different lol
The knob easily plugged back on, I wore out the should buttons on my launch PSP, did replace it with a 3000.
I love both systems so much, I grew up with the PSP and I couldn't get enough of it, I would game on it all the time, I would always listen to music on it and i had about 3 movie UMDs. I remember finally getting a 4GB Memory Stick when It FINALLY went on sale at my local tech store and I was so excited, memory sticks were so expensive back then. I carried my PSP literally everywhere with me and even neglected girls back in the day, it was the vibrant blue PSP 3000, absolutely loved it. Now with the Vita, I was so excited and wanted one so bad at the time and I got one and it came with an 8gb card thank god, those fuckers are expensive. I loved the Vita, so many awesome games on it, it was like a portable PS3, I just wish Sony gave it more support and not made us use those memory cards that would break the bank. I might get a Vita again one day not sure, but it is an extremely underrated hand-held and one of the best.
Great vid buddy, enjoyed it quite a lot! Nice work👍
My disk drive in my ps3 just broke it’s a slim, does anyone know where I can get another one, I’m thinking of jail breaking it anyway and just downloaded games but anything helps.
Great video, thank you for making it. The PS Vita is a great system. I’m on vacation now and I have it with me..still have plenty of games to play on it.
A PSVita without Henkaku is nothing great.
A PSVita with Henkaku and SD2Vita is almost divine intervention.
Those "Dude, get your own" PSP commercials are really nostalgic to me
It’s worth mentioning that you can mod and improve the screen to be brighter and nicer with an ips panel.
Great video as usual Ryan but I disagree with some things, I love my psp I still play it to this day, I got rid of my old Vita about 1year and a half ago, because I played my psp more even though I loved my Vita I felt it could get played more somewhere else. Also I literally cannot play ps2 anymore 😭 it just makes me nauseous Everytime I try to play.
Brendan Larsen u should’ve installed Henkaku on your vita my vita has gba psp ps1 and n64 games on it
@@scrappgangkodie2342 I should have right, but at least I got a lot of free psp games on my psp from this website I forgot what it called because I did it a while ago but I have a 128 gb card loaded with games
I had a PSP 3000 and it definitly saw it's use on 13hr flights... That being said, I think the Vita has definitly aged better...
hearing that umd spin and chug 5 inches from my face brings back so many memories.
@ 6:57 i used to not be able to hear that. Nostalgia left that part out.
I love my psp! I loved taking it on the go and watching movies and anime shows on the go.Once the homebrew scene came out I was the only kid in my class in high school that had the psp and was known as the hacker kid that hacked his psp lol.
I've had my PSP since launch and I'm still using frequently to listen to music and watch movies while I travel. However, I feel like I should finally upgrade to the Vita. Does anyone recommend any games to get started?

@@Alex-mx3gs Wow, thanks for such an amazing response - definitely going to be referring to your list whenever I pick up a Vita!
Having one analog stick leaves more space for the 4 buttons on the right which is good
I've had the first generation Vita still sat in it's both, barely used. I guess I never took too it. How much would it be worth? Is it collectible?
PSP is an awesome handheld! I’ve been collecting them over the years, I have several limited editions and various colors.
Ahead of it's time man greatest handheld ever made
Since we reference Spider man 2 "Oh rosie i love this boy"
I’m stuck deciding whether to buy a PSP or VITA. Had a psp when I was younger but was stolen, thinking it might be more nostalgia then actually wanting one over a Vita. Any input?
Would be better if you bought vita, it is backwards compatible with psp games.
This 2yr old comment but I suggest buyin a psp. I jus bought one recently and it’s soo nostalgic. Haven’t turned on my ps5 in days.
Wow. You are so bold. You like Vita more than PSP?!?! You like the console that is newer, faster and better?! Wow i have never heard anybody say that before. We need more utubers like you bro!!
Hey mystic. It’s 2021. Could you give me your honest opinion if it’s worth picking up still after 10 years? Never owned one or touched one. Would like to try if it’s worth it still
The Vita is the dopest handheld ever created. Man I wish it were still supported by Sony
Chris Evans , I think it is in Japan.
Sony supported Vita in Japan because people supported the Vita, in Japan..
@@argonauts56au1kera6 Well, I wish it were here! lol
@@Stoppskylten True. But I think the price ruined it here in the U.S. The memory cards are still ridiculously over priced in my opinion
@@ChrisEvans66 I just made another post what I think of the card price as a reason, which is not much. Either way, it was likely even less of an issue in Japan at the time, as physical games tend to be even bigger part of sales there still today. What they should have done though, was to have at least some memory internal from the start. Like the PSTV and the Vita lite version does. Or include the smallest card (4) with all original units, a bit like many smartphones used to, ironically with SD cards. ;)
PSP is the portable ps2, not portable ps1. Yeah, it can emulate ps1 perfectly, but the full games released on psp were on par with the ps2 games. Even some games came to both plataforms (psp and ps2). You completely missed the point.
On the PSP there is even God of War Ghost of Sparta which is technically a pre-PS3 game. PSP is still awesome
PSP is a portable ps3
Psp is ps1.5 and vita is ps2.5.
i still love my psp and vita in 2023, just the other day i had to take my car for repairs in another city and it was going to take 4 hours, so i took my psp and 2 movies then just sat there watching them
I used to have a PSP but after two years it had some problem with its charging and would not charge at all
The PSP was literally the iphone before the iphone, the vita seeked to improve it, and I liked it better as well, but people thought it was wack thus it failed....
Grappler senpai people didn’t hate it, Sony did, they just stopped caring about it
Apple COPIED psp and ds
A hacked PSP was a clunky smartphone, years before iPhone. You could run tons of mindblowing stuff on PSP that isn't anything special now (and specifically, wasn't special when Vita launched)
i personally don't like vita at all it's design sucks
I tried going back to my psp. I was playing crisis core. For some reason I remembered the game looking way better than it actually did as I revisited it
Honestly there is a lot to love about the PSP vs the Vita. I like both btw. The Vita's layout on its hardware was frustrating at times, with much smaller face buttons (I have large hands, so my thumbprint is as large as the entire circumference of all the buttons) and had less of a tactile response to my inputs. They also put the Start/Select/PS buttons on the sides, instead of the half of inch of space below the screen (As the PSP had) so it made everything cramped. I also thought that the sticks had little x-axis movement compared to the full half-inch of lateral movement on the nub from the original PSP. I also never understood the need for the rear touchpad, as it was (like the gyroscope) a huge added expense to system overall, when you could have put high level rear buttons to fully replicate rear shoulder buttons on a controller. (Would have made console games MUCH easier to play.) PSP suffered from what Xbox and Sony do alot, which is try to dump the kitchen sink into a system without mastering 2-3 things that will get people to buy the system. The PS1's controller added a set of sticks, which is an step-up from its pervious version. Neither the PSP or the Vita took that approach, and even in some ways took steps back. (No second nub for PSP 2000 and later, Lack of the OLED from the Vita 2000 model)
I have a Saw 3D movie poster signed by the cast too! I'm guessing you got it signed at a convention? Which one if you dont mind me asking? Texas Frightmare Weekend, is where I got mine signed.
Can you make a video on EA Access
Bro you've got really strange WiFi it works with my psp
The psp only uses 802.11b wifi which is odd because 802.11g came out in 2003 so I guess they were just trying to cut costs a bit. Anyways point is unless your router is a old or happens to come with all the legacy support options enabled from the factory it might not be set up to support 802.11b because almost nobody is still using devices that use that wifi standard anymore. There are almost certainly legacy settings that could be enabled to get it to work though. I figured all this out because a few years ago I got out the old psp and it didn't connect to my wifi so I went and checked and sure enough I didn't have support for 802.11b enabled.
@@joetheoriginalclark i got an adaptor and now my internet runs in that old system and todays system :P
The PSP that I got didn't come with the Spiderman UMD Movie... It was a special package that had a limited run in stores.
I still have so many UMD movies that i watched on my big screen TV, i had the slim version, which could link up to the TV, but could not scale to wide screen. And you could easly copy backgrounds or music via link cable from PC to the PSP.
