The PlayStation Vita was a huge improvement from the PSP so I couldn’t wait to buy one. It was barely out 3 years and Sony was already declaring it as a legacy console. It was as if they just pushed it aside and didn’t care. It was a huge slap in the face to everyone that went out and purchased a Vita. I still have my PlayStation Vita. It had so much potential but Sony just didn’t support it.
I bought the vita on day one and it's still going strong. After I put thousands of hours into the psp, it was a forgone conclusion that I'd get the vita. You're right about the ergo's being crappy. I bought a grip to correct that mishap. If there's any still in the wild, I strongly suggest buying one. Kind of changes everything for the better.
I use PS4 Remote Play on my PS Vita all the time... I have quite a good internet connection so it works well for me. It works particularly well for single player games. Multiplayer on some games can be tricky though. Sometimes it works great... but I think it hogs a lot of the connection used to do remote play in the first place, so single player gaming is best. Other than that, to be able to play PS Vita, PSP, PS1, PS Vita homebrew titles/ports, and emulators on the go... don't forget, both the PS Vita and PSP altogether have a number of PS2/PS3/PS4 ports... AND I can remote play my PS4?! Sheesh. Again, the PS Vita was WAY ahead of it's time!
i bought mine second hand with a 16gb sd memory card and persona 4 golden but instantly modded it when it came, its been with me since the last 3 months and i love it!!!
I got the PlayStation portal and it was ok like it wasn’t bad, but I really want to play PlayStation games with out WiFi so I think I’ll just grab me a Vita
I've wanted a Vita for a while, but I think the draw is those special games that are unique to the system like the Uncharted, Little Big Planet, and Gravity Rush releases. I think your observations are quite insightful, but I don't think the Vita would have held up competing against the Switch. One of the big benefits of the original Switch is the fact that you can dock it. It is a handheld AND a console in one. In this regard, I would be much more interested in something like the new Retroid Pocket 5 that is coming out later this month. It has an incredible amount of emulation potential up through Gamecube/Wii and PS2 along with a host of native Android titles. The form factor is wonderful as is the 5.5" 1080p AMOLED screen. On top of that, like the Switch, it can be docked to use it as a console. It even appears to run several Switch games via Switch emulation. If all of this wasn't appealing enough, the joysticks on the Retroid Pocket 5 are 3D hall sticks. These are significantly more sensitive and accurate than the sticks on the Switch. and shouldn't run into drift issues. For me, I'm looking forward to upscaling PS2 and Gamecube classics and even using widescreen hacks to fill that glorious 5.5" AMOLED screen with GTA 3/Vice City/San Andreas along with Ico/Shadow of the Collosus, Okami, Viewtiful Joe, Super Mario Sunshine, SSX, Bully, Silent Hill 2/3/4, Rule of Rose, Final Fantasy X, and so many other titles. The Gamecube and Wii have some outstanding titles and the PS2 has one of the greatest libraries to grace a console. Cherry-picking a best of to play on the go and then parking it in a dock when you get back home if you want?!?! This is like the Switch with even more joy. At least for an old codger like me. Anyway - that's my two cents. Informative video! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work! Peace.
For now, these are just rumors, like the ones mentioned on this website www.dexerto.com/tech/playstation-vita-2-in-development-according-to-reputable-leaker-2509539/
Prices are way overpriced right now. In my area the average price is around 200 bucks. It's crazy when I can buy a new Switch Lite for 150. Moreover I don't understand why you need Vita, there are no good exclusive games on it. And for playing PSP games you can buy a PSP, they are super cheap now, it’s much more portable, and modding is also very easy.
There are many nice vita titles though. P4G, the world ends with you, Marvel vs Capcom 3, gravity rush, MGS and FF X collections to name a few. Being able to play those free alone are enough to buy it over a psp. That said i only got mine for $125

Got a ps vita modded a few months back and while I haven’t put many hours in (only played gravity rush) I love it and am excited to play more of it
Recently bought a used one and modded it and love it glad to have Freedomwars back specially since it’s coming to Playstation5 later next year.

PS Vita seems amazing but the steep price of such an old portable made me go all out with a Steam Deck instead and I am super happy I got it!

They need to add high end mobile games to the next vita

I bought a vita 2k to play all SAO games but its kinda sad the hollow realization has a bottleneck performance😢
I bought a OLED VITA and its worth it

What source is saying that PlayStation are making another handheld? I’d be very surprised if they did that.

You cant play vita games on psp, vita can play both
