PSvita/psp thread (Vita means 'life')

[DanZan]

Thread for those who love the Psp or Ps vita.

The ds/3ds won't get any love here, i'm afraid...

 

Recently made a vid showing all my Vita games. Check it out!

 

 

Also if you have a collection yourself...Plz share!

But somehow it will still be released in Sweden (big shock!)

Definitely picking that game up even though i have no real interest in playing it. DAY 1 !!!!

You got yourself a great collection. I been neglecting mine as of late. I haven't played or brought anything for it in a while. 

[misterBee]

I've never owned a Vita.  I think I've played on one once.  

[DanZan]

Now is the last chance to buy a Vita and vita games before they become extinct in the wild. Henkaku is being prepared for fw 3.67, but the dude won't release it until he is 100% certain that the vita is deader than ded (sony not being there to make patches, etc)

 

A vita on CFW is truly a all in 1 machine, as you will have vita games/psp/ps1/emu all in one machine.

 

also say hello to my new one :

Are Vitas and their games going out of production? Recent releases here in the US has been digital only.

As far as I know, the Vita has been discontinued everywhere but Japan for sometime.

[DanZan]

I can't speak for the US and A but it's been discontinued since way back here in europe.

As for games...The only recent physical game to released will be the game i mentioned in my first post, that titty game "omega labyrinth Z" and that will release in may, there are no more phys games coming after that from what i know, not counting limited run games.

 

 

edit : also worth noting is that the more time passes the more the price of physical games will go up, that is quite obvious considering how niche the vita was and how they don't print physical copies of the games.

 

For example...Danganronpa 3, a game that was released late last year (hasn't been out for long at all) is getting scalped on ebay : https://www.ebay.com/itm/Danganronpa-V3-PSVita-PAL-FR-Sony-Playstation-VITA-RARE-3/192498010927?hash=item2cd1c68b2f:g:zlEAAOSwxJlav5hq

Not just Japan.  It's still easy to walk into a shop and buy new Vitas in Asia. 

[Darc_Requiem]

I'm honestly surprised the Vita outsold the WiiU. Sony basically abandoned the Vita after years one. For all it's troubles, Nintendo fully backed the Wii U for nearly half a decade.

[misterBee]

In Asia there were plenty of releases.  It only died year 1 in the west.  In Asia there were plenty of new games coming out all the time.  Many games were on both PS4 or Vita.

Sony is ending production of physical Vita games in America and Europe next March

I'm grab up all the physical games I can.

Vita meant life. 😢

 

Definitely time to make sure I have some choice games before they go out of print.

[DanZan]

Here are the ones you want to get :

 

Odin sphere (limited print & great game, guaranteed future collectors item)

Dragons Crown (limited print, not on psn store)

Umvc3 (hasn't been on psn store for a long time)

Shinobido 2 revenge of zen (hasn't been on psn store since beginning of 2016)

 

You can thank me later when you see how the prices skyrocket even more in a near distant future.

[Hawkingbird]

At this point every physical Vita game is limited print. Grab anything of interest while it's still cheap. 

[DanZan]

New jailbreak/hack called "h-encore"

Release date 1st July. Vita owners go cray cray!

 

 

[misterBee]

I heard old hacking methods were a pain.  If this is better I may finally buy a Vita.

This is really simple. It's more or less a app that you just launch and then you are able to run homebrew.

[Hawkingbird]

I'm having a difficult time installing homebrew. I can't get my Vita to connect to my PC via USB. QCMA doesn't pick up on it at all. I've tried a bunch of different drivers and none have been working.
