Today, I give my first impressions on the PlayStation Vita! We take a look at what things come inside the box, and how it fairs compared to the original 1000 model.

Out of all of the Japanese imported slim vita videos I've watched, you told everything.....EVERYTHING needed to know about the Japanese imported version. I've seen so many videos not saying ANYTHING about the damn buttons being swapped. I just recently found out about it and you're the first I've seen that shows that you can actually CHANGE that. I figured it would be something permanent with the Japanese imported version. I've even seen people in comment sections that "mention" the button swap but never even emphasized that you could change that. You get a like and a sub from me, THANK YOU!!! I feel way more comfortable getting the aqua blue Japanese import one now!!! Very helpful!!!
TheScoun16 Yes, same, I ordered mine yesterday. It's coming tomorrow, the aqua blue is sick! I'd buy it.
Kellan Gaming
Great, good pick! That's exactly the one I'll be ordering from Amazon tomorrow. Hopefully it comes before Sunday!
Holy crap, thank you so much man! I didn't even realize it meant that much to people haha. I felt bad about it cause it wasn't until i finished recording the video that I remembered that I had forgotten to show people how to change it in case it bothered them. So in that respect, I'm glad I helped you! The Aqua blue is definitely a great choice. If I wasn't caught up in nostalgia, I probably would have ordered that one.
BladeStormz can the 1000 change the button swap.
What do you mean by button swap?
*Someone touches my New 3DS XL*
"Meh"
*Someone touches my Vita*
I WILL TEAR YOUR ASS APART AND TURN IT INSIDE OUT!
Haha, I can relate to this. I don't play my 3DS as much as I used to. I've been playing Project Diva F 2nd on my Vita more.
+BladeStormz Saaaame
Look Like can you help me what is beter ps vita slim or Nintendo
Thanks for the heads up mon, im im waiting for my ps vita slim from amazon right now. have a good one
I enjoyed this video, im getting mine next week, also in silver with the trigger grip, this video just makes me more hype about it
I've always wanted one too and finally ordered mine! I'm a bit sad that I couldn't get the white one but I hope I'll get over it.. Your's is super beautiful just like your voice.
Awesome! The white one is definitely awesome. I really really wanted to get a white Fate/Extella Version myself, but alas, they we're limited edition. I couldn't even find any from scalpers either o-o
Oh well.
Are you trying to make me blush? Cause you did. I'm glad you liked the video!
Mine arrived yesterday and I'm so happy~~
Eh, I didn't intend to but blushing isn't a bad thing. /// ^__^
@@bladestormz8937 I just ordered one. How is it going with the vitta?
I love the the clicks
The Vita is very much still alive and not dead, you wont find any triple A games in North America coming out anymore on it, but games are still coming out from Japan and being localized. I have 60 physical copy games in my collection, and waiting for more releases well into 2018. Its a great system, and the games are becoming more and more rare, so it is up the alley of Collectors as well.
Agreed. I like to buy niche games on the off chance that they're actually rare. I'm still gonna play the hell out of them regardless!
2018 Feb 2nd and I want one. Pretty sure you convinced me to get the silver one like yours, it's nice!
In Japan the O and X as "yes" and "no" (or "accepted"/"rejected", "correct"/"incorrect") is pretty well established. Additionally, many games on previous systems like the SNES used the right most of the four face buttons for selecting and the bottom button for cancelling.
Notice: *The new update of the Vita, you can go to settings, accessibility, then look for "Buttons" or whatever u don't have a Vita, then scroll down until you find X and O then swap them, tap apple then boom, done.*
Nice video! Im gonna get one this Christmas along with Uncharted Golden Abyss, Need For Speed, and Tearaway.
Awesome! Let me know how you like it when you get it! I also recommend something like Person 4 Golden if you're into RPG's!
I like the PS Vita Slim because there is a special controller grip add-on for the Vita Slim from Hori. You can look it up. Look up this RUclipsr named NihongoGamer and he reviews the Vita Slim's controller grip add-on. It's really neat!
nice vid man!! love it
Thank you so much! It makes me happy knowing you enjoyed the video!
I'm saving for one and I'm so exited!!
Let me know when you end up buying one and how you like it!
BladeStormz How much did you pay for your PSP vita Slim?
Beautiful Vita man! I too recently got my Vita and this color was one of my top choices at first, but I ended up getting the aqua blue one in almost new condition (fortunately). Anyway, hope you're enjoying it! By the way, there's like a sale going on PSN and I would recommend you getting Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and Star Wars Battlefront 2 or Elite Squadron for PSP to play on your new Vita.
Nice nice, I definitely like that color on the vita. I chose this color cause I had a silver PSP Slim that came with Daxter years ago, and I wanted to feel nostalgic. Not sure if that makes any sense :)
I'll definitely look into both of those! I've seen Monster Hunter at a couple "mom and pop" shops, so if I see it, I'll pick it up!
Nathan Leos I got the aqua blue too.best one I think.I also like the metallic red and neon orange:)
Silver and black. Beautiful
For some reason, RUclips wouldn't let me reply to someone's comment.
So, @GDV84;
I agree, it was definitely a little weird. I haven't looked into it myself. Maybe you're right and it was a refurbished one. Either way, since I've made this video I've had no problems with it whatsoever. So, I'm not too bugged by it.
BladeStormz Saw your comment man! Thanks! Since then I've bought a Vita from Play-Asia as well and I'm very happy with it and the transaction. My guess is your Vita just got nicked at some point during manufacturing or packaging but not refurbished. Thanks for your video, so helpful!
BladeStormz I might be getting one myself in a little while!!! This unboxing has only convinced my even more to get one!!!! :D
I'm super happy to hear that! I'm glad your experience with it has been good so far! More people need to appreciate the vita! Glad you enjoyed the video :D
Hey that's awesome Shroobit! I'm glad I could help convince you to get a Vita, it really is a great little console. Glad I could help!
I like your unboxing very nice good work well done you are the best
Wow, thank you so much! I'm really glad you liked it!
very nice, I'm going to order a ps vita slim aqua blue this week from play asia. how long did it take until the packet arrived at your place?
I was just wondering are the ps vita 2000 brand new from play Asia? Also nice vid i had a psp a few years ago and I Loved it and now it's 2018 - _- I want a ps vita. I didn't know to much about the ps vita untill I watched your vid
I so want a silver vita!!! I got the black oled one but this could be a great addition.
Thx man for the info imma sub
Hey thanks for the awesome video. I just got my silver PSV today and love it, better than black lol ! One tiny thing I notice: when you put the game card in, the cartridge slot flap won't fully closed. After used a few time the edge of the flap does not fit into the body anymore. A small opening appears at the edge, making the top side of Vita not as smooth as the beginning. That flap just kind of bugs me anyway because I have OCD lol. Nothing serious. I want to know if you have similar issue.
I have this on my vita too, i close it with the edge that is facing me to ensure it stays that way
Don't forget!! You can't just charge it with any charging brick. The PS Vita has a specific voltage charge, you can read it on the back of the PS Vitas' charging brick. You can still use other charging bricks, if the voltage is too low on one brick, the PS Vita will not charge as quickly, also if there is a brick that has too high of voltage you could also damage your battery and put more wear and tear on it. When it comes to charging devices the voltage has to be precise, in order to maintain your batteries intended lifespan. I mean people can charge their purchased devices however they want to, but I'm just speaking facts.
just ordered a red one on eBay. only got it cause it was super cheap but I'm hyping myself up by watching all these unboxings and reviews. I wish they reduced the price of their memory cards, or better yet someone made an SD adapter for it like they did with the PSP. anyways nice vid.
I hear ya. I did the exact same thing for about a year before I shoveled out the money to get a vita haha.
Agreed. The price of Vita memory cards are too damn high! (supposedly to fight against piracy but yada yada).
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
K's Finest Gameplays it was a scam I got my money back tho.
Woah I'm sorry to hear that! I'm glad you got your money back though. I would've been pissed if I was in your situation. Keep an eye out on websites like play asia, or even go to a gamestop to just buy one straight up if you have the money for it. Hope everything goes well for you!
BladeStormz thx an honestly I'm just gonna pass on the vita, I don't play games in general and even if I need my fix on the go I still got my hacked PSP. So in the end I ain't mad at all that it was a scam.
Nice nice, a hacked PSP can be just as fun as a Vita in my opinion. I remember when I was little I really wanted to play Super Mario 64 on it lol. Glad it worked out in the end for you though.
Awesome! i like the color. i own two silver playstion portable
nice buy, I bought the oled version instead when I was in Japan :-) the screen is like the one on the Samsung galaxy phones, its the best screen I have in my home xD but yours are lighter and has longer battery life so yea again good buy ;-)
Yeah it pretty much came down to what I wanted more for me. Did I want a nicer screen, but have to potentially spend more money on future charging cables, or get a slightly less good screen but charge it whenever/wherever I want. Plus the button and weight difference.
Hey man what's up with that scratch? Are you sure you didn't get a refurbished vita? I'm actually thinking about purchasing from play Asia myself but that was sketchy.
is there a way to switch it so X is the way to select?
nice vid dude ^_^
Love my vita I got a steal with mine so I'm happy with my purchase
Your a good sport. Forgiving that scratch
Do you recommend the silver or glacier white?
My cousin's name is Vita XD
4:41 i got asmr
I have the neon orange one and it's a stunner.
Shoot content on how it is using it in 2023, would love to watch!
@@molefemashiane Sorry -- I am not a filmmaker in the slightest and have no desire to make and upload RUclips videos at this time and likely never will. Maybe you can find someone else who has a video like this on here.
hi my friend I like your video about the PlayStation vita
nice video mehn
can you plz tell me what firmware the system came with?
Hey, thanks for the video, how did you get the sale from play-Asia? How much was the unit?
Sorry for the late response. When I went on the website the specific vita I had chosen (which was the one in the video) had a banner that said it was part of the play-asia spring sale. Or something like that. Not sure how much money I actually saved, since I ended up paying $200.00 for the vita itself plus another 20 for express shipping.
Thanks man
Just bought one, hypeeeeeeee.
Niiiiice! Which one did you decide to get? Let me know how you like it when you get it!
BladeStormz I didn't see this comment, sorry. Anyways, I got the aqua blue Japanese import. It's awesome!
Nice! I think a lot of people like that color and I can't blame them, it's really cool looking! I'm glad you like it!
you can change the button config
in accessibility custom button assingment change that up
My favourite thing in the world is a ps vita since grade in 3 2014 I just wish I had 15 of them and never run out of them or loose them
the buttons are like that for a reason. x means no o means yes (basically)
Take a shot everytime he says whatever!!😂😝
How many times did I say it? I lost count after 30.
I just ordered the glacier white one on ebay, I can't wait to get mine.
Hell yeah man, let me know how you like it once you get it!
BladeStormz I've had it for a few days and I'm really liking it so far. I played through Uncharted Golden Abyss, now I'm currently playing through P4G which is really good so far.
Arie Ortiz i get one this mine
how did you not know what time zone you were in. ....
Can you give the website where you buy the vita please
you love gurren laggann i respect that
this came out 2 days after my birthday
Oh yeah, I freaking loved Gurren Lagann. Definitely one of my favorites. Happy late birthday! I hope it was a good one!
Site link? Where you bought
about to get the blue japan model soon
Nice! Let me know how you like it when you get it!
You should make more future videos you are good
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it! I have a bunch of other videos on the channel but they don't have as many views. I made a follow up video to this one if you're interested in more PS Vita videos. But if not, what kind of videos would you like to see? :)
would you recommend a glacier white ps vita slim japanese import from amazon
Sorry for the late response, I'm not sure if you've decided yet.
I would say find a color you want and buy it from a trustworthy site for a decent price. The slim model does come in more flashy or bright colors than the "phat/original" model, but you have to import them since the U.S only got normal colors like black or silver. If you like the glacier white vita, and you found a trustworthy seller on amazon, I'd say go for it! Hope this helped!
hannible chau 767
The only issue with imported Vita units from Japan, is that the X and O button functions are switched in games but Idk if its a rumor????
FastLikeUNO Not in games, just in menus. You can fix it in settings.
I had that when I was 4 years old I liked so much and I'm getting a red one this time when I got it when I was 4
Bro what firmware was running on this out of the box?
Usually those models run at 3.50 from the box. When I bought a new model, 3.50 was the firmware
On the play-asia.com website i saw a slim vita that said asian version and another one with exact same color but said japan version wich one did you get or i should get?
The region doesn't matter. PS Vita's are not region locked so it doesn't matter where you buy it from. I'd say get the cheaper one (one might cost more depending on shipping costs) and if they're both the same price, flip a coin I guess.
I love psvita
I so want a slim!
Save up for one! You can get them used for a little over $150 at certain GameStop's. (Plus christmas is coming up, so free money!)
BladeStormz hey I found this video because this is the color I wanted. My GameStop has a ton of fats for $140 but the only one I want is a cheap slim, or this from playasia
Number one psvita slain
2:18 I'd be impressed if somebody managed that.
I got my ps vita with p4g, bl2, and ffx hd. Deleted my 20hr save for ffx but I'm still loving the vita. xD
Sorry for the super late response! (Definitely didn't forget my login info)
I'm glad to hear that! How are you liking those games? I'm currently playing P4G and it's been pretty awesome. I also got halfway through FFX on my ps4 too, and that game was good too. I love RPG's!
Whats the firmware of a new psvita?
can anyone tell me is there any pch more than pch 2000 n 2006 actually I wanna buy it so can anyone tell me that there any pch more than- 2006 in 2017?
the silver looks awesome, sucks i got the basic black lol oh well still an amazing handheld.
dude black is an amazing color. it's my favorite color. my car is black. although I did have the silver PSP and it looked good too.
Now send the silver psvita slim to my conutry venezuela as my birthday gift
I have the 1000 version
Could u make more videos of this psp? Please
[lol]
Where can I buy this psvita
I will get it on may
Yo so the ps vita don't need a psvita game when you turn it on
did it come with a memory card
Should I buy a vita in silver, metallic red ,aqua blue or white what do you say bladestormz
Sorry for the late reply, I don't know if you've decided by now but I'll still give you my 2 cents. Uh, I'd say pick your favorite color? Or if you like ALL of them, pick the one that you think won't know many finger prints? I know a lot of people that choose certain colors so that they wont look dirty or show fingerprints on them after a long time. Hope that helped a little!
Was thinking about getting a vita would you recommend this or the new nintendo 3ds xl?
HokieNation84 I have a Vita has been 2-3 years,They are no longer making good games for him,I would buy a Switch
Switch if you don't have a console
Vie always been wanting a vita since it released. so I got my vita this year on jsnuary.
Nice! How do you feel about it? Was it worth the purchase?
cool. ps4 have fun with it
Vita is alive!
Yes it is! Support this little machine as much as you can!
Ps vita sucks
omor gaming ps vita sucks in my opinion. It’s dead
what cost
Can you swap o and x
I have the slim one.
Cual es el precio de esa ps vita ??
Do you know if they will discontinue by October because I want one
To be honest, it sort of already IS discontinued. You can't go to a Walmart or Best Buy and pick one up. The only way to buy one is either, go to a Gamestop (or another game store) and buy one used, OR, go online and buy it there.
There are still games being made for it though, and the PSN store on it still has sales all the time! Definitely go out and buy one if you're interested!
Bruce Wayne's Roommate But it soon, it's awesome.
Its discontinued in 2019 for north america
I had a black one
I buyed on my ps vita 2006
july 10 2022
I ordered a second hand ps vita , hope it works😑
Accessability
ha so the slim really isn't yellow or green like people try to say it is
Version on this ps vita?
The Vita in the video is a PS Vita Slim. I hope that's what you meant. If not, can you clarify?
I am getting one in 2018
BRUH
THEMASTER GAMES SAME
THEMASTER GAMES Im getting mine on february 14th(my birthday)!!!
Fusonimatic Dissonance AWSOME
I have one,The original model is been 2-3 years,and what I can say is,they are no longer making AAA games for the Vita,if you like indie games,go for it,I would buy a Switch if I where you
ArtBy MR.T I'm getting it for hacks
I love ps vita
Venord Sephora why
Which country do you live?
This buy from second hand market in USA
hey , what ps vita memory card you recommend for me?
Sorry for the late reply, I really hope I'm not too late in answering this.
I'd say it really depends on how you buy your games. If you don't really buy too many digital games, I'd say an 8Gb memory card is perfect. Vita save files are pretty small as is, and at least with 8Gb you can still buy a game or two digitally. If you buy both physical AND digital, I'd say either the 16 or the 32 (remember to keep your budget in check too, higher sizes cost more). Hope I could help!
BladeStormz which color is better the silver or red metallic ps vita..
I'd say the red cause it has slick color, and most people have the black or the grey, so you'll have style points for that.
The amount of mouth smacks in this vid
Why can't the slim version come with a memory card
The Slim Version actually comes with 2GB of memory built in actually! But it's also probably to keep the Vita under $200.
Where can I get one? Can someone please reply with the right eBay link? Thanks.
You can find them on Play Asia, Amazon, and eBay like you said. Although there's a lot more places you can find them but, those are the big 3 that are trustworthy. Just make sure that if you do find one on eBay or Amazon, read everything CAREFULLY! Cause there's been people here in the comments that said they got scammed by sellers. So read the reviews from other buyers to make sure its the real deal. If you still need some help, send me a tweet!
I saw ur recent video thank you. Hey, do you honestly think it's worth buying a used for $100 with charger and call of duty but no memory card?
hmm..depends on which version of the Vita it is. If its a slim, I'd say that's a really good deal since you'll only spend another $20 or so on a memory card. The slim comes with 2GB of built in storage, while the original does not. So if it IS the original, AND it's in good shape, I'd say its a great deal! But you won't be able to save your games unless you buy a memory card, so make sure to do that ASAP if its the original model.
would you recommend persona 4 golden?
sonny santillano I that even a real question.
gangstalishis what?
Yes! The Persona games are seriously amazing!! I'm playing through Persona 5 right now and I absolutely love it. If you like RPG's or visual novels, I strongly recommend you try it out!
BladeStormz nice ok thanks
gangstalishis What the hell? 😂, "I even that a question?" I think he/she was asking, "Is that a question?" If so, yes.
Easy way to remember: O---> OKAY , YES
X------> Cancel, NO ,WRONG
I bought an aqua blue japan imported one new for 180$ on ebay
Nice! Did that include shipping too? I saw a few on ebay myself but, I don't have a paypal and lot of sellers on there use it. Shame.
Yep it was a great deal
And it's insanely easy to get a paypal
