I remember importing the original psp from Japan months before it got released any where else. Anyone that layed their eyes on it had a serious look of envy. It just looked incredible and ahead of its time. The VITA didn't give me the same feeling. I have 2 of them but, I don't know what it is about it but give me psp or 3ds any day. Wipeout 2048 was the best thing about it for me.

I can't help but compare my Vita from 2014 to my current Switch Lite. In terms of build quality, size and ergonomics the Vita makes the Switch look like a Game Boy Color.. I think a lot of games on Vita even have way better graphics like Killzone Mercenary. Too bad it didn't catch on.

Corrections PKGj: It does not offer all Vita games, but a large portion of them. Ports: None are PS2 ports. They are mostly PC ports (e.g. GTA3, GTA VC) or Android ports (e.g. GTA SA). Hence you have to have the game files from the PC versions or Android versions respectively for those games.

[@Asaylum117]

As much as I enjoy playing the Nintendo Switch from time to time, the console on handheld can be a bit too big for my hands and carrying it around on trips or something is a bit of a hastle. After seeing all the things the PS Vita can do, especially once you hack/jailbreak it, it honestly feels like one of the best handheld consoles even for today's standarts. I am thinking to buy a used PS Vita for myself, because the more I watch these PS Vita videos, the more I feel like I want one for myself. I will be flying to Germany with my family this August for a 5 day trip and maybe I will try find a PS Vita in Berlin, but if I can't find one, then I will buy a used PS Vita from Japan once I get back from my trip.

[@GamersChoiceYouTube]

I really appreciate it! And I'm not too familiar on what specific screwdriver you need to open psp/vitas, but I'm sure you can find an answer on reddit. Reddit has all the answers 😏

[@guypeters9309]

If you are running your PSP games through Adrenaline...via bubble icons...it's going to be roughly the same memory & power requirements...the only way past this is to have bought the game via PSN & have it regged to your Vita...then there is no Adrenaline requirement...but that time has came and pasted. I personally use RetroFlow to launch all my games Vita\PSP\PS1\... and have purged my Live Area of all non Application Icon's...so I got three screens of apps and that's it...and I probably could bring it down to just two if I removed the icons from some of the emulators. As for screw drivers...buy one of those decent sized kits from iFixIt....you got one small phillips for most screws & a stupidly small hex for removing 3g cards...if you own one of those models.

[@sias.2569]

There are also dedicated emulator consoles that can emulate GameCube, Wii, n64, Dreamcast (better than the vita) games. At the end of the day, there is not much that is unique about the vita and psp games themselves. It’s not like the DS and 3DS, which have the two screens. This makes the EXPERIENCE difficult to emulate accurately. Vita games can be played on PC without any loss of the essential experience. Besides the portability I guess; unless you have the steamdeck.

You need to give RetroFlow a try..it with RetroArch adds a lot to the Vita.

[@guypeters9309]

@@SniperBraeGaming Good deal, I also suggest making the PSVSD the primary drive (UX0)...and stuff as big of a SD in it you can. The reason for this is Vita games MUST be installed on the UX0...and swapping out the MicroSD in the PSVSD is a pain in the ass...so you want to set it and forget it. Where the SD2Vita you may want to swap out for whatever reason...an actual Vita Cart...or maybe you have a couple of SD2Vita's with different retro collections on them. So the SD2Vita should be mounted as UMA0. If you end up using RetroFlow for a frontend for you games...then it's easy to have the PSP games then on the SD2Vita...I think Adrenaline allows for this but it's something to keep in mind. NA Vita set is around 900GB that will nearly max out a formatted 1TB SD which actually comes in around 960GB. NA PSP set is like 550GB...so as you can see things fill up quickly.

That’s what I got it for and for that it’s perfect - for people who either dont have time for a console or want something they can carry around… it’s perfect. A portable device will not compare to a console for very obvious reasons and the expectations shouldn’t be that… it’s like saying you expect the same performance out of a steam deck as you would a full gaming PC. It’s good, but it’s not better than a PC… not even close.

@@PeoplePleaser578 Bro I have ps5 I can't buy psvita coz I have high end device which can play psvita games by using vita3k so I can't buy psvita it's shit and wasting money I'd rather buy myself something else or donate money to charity than wasting money on a handheld toy You could have used that money to buy ps3 instead of psvita coz ps3 can play ps2 games and ps3 has more better games than that psvita toy

Do you need a computer in order to get PKGj v0.55 ?? Or is this something you can download from the system itself. I just paid almost 70 dollars for season 1 and 2 The Walking Dead by Telltale and I cant believe I paid that price, smfh. But them games are awesome. Also do you need a memory card to download PKGj?

[@Scoopy1979]

can you still unlock trophies with a modded vita? or are you not connected then anymore to the sony eco system?

[@savagepapi8071]

I’m thinking about selling my series x or ps5 and get a vita!

[@Gloryboyquan]

vita underrated !

[@jjtreads5472]

Bruh. Do not do that…. You will regret that trade. The vita is not better than either of those.

[@acgon]

Most of these are things you can do on any Android phone with a gamesir X2 any other gamepad, but yeah it's cool to see old Vita still have some interesting thins to mess around

[@jeffreylewisCL]

Thanks for the video and all the information! I just bought a PS Vita and I’m waiting for it to arrive. I’m excited to Play RE2 and RE3 originals. Can you still buy games off PSN for Vita?

[@user-ez4nm1vt7z]

Hey sorry I know this video is 4 weeks old but I have a question if I bought a vita jail-braked it and downloaded the emulator software would I then also have to download the games on the vita or on a Pc and then to the vita for example Mario 64 if I downloaded the Nintendo 64 emulation software would I be able to play Mario 64 instantly on the vita or would I have to download it on a of thanks a lot you have great content 👍

[@itranscendencei7964]

It's just hard to justify getting a PSVita unless you're really into PS1/PSP/Vita games. From what I understand, the Vita actually struggles with a lot of emulation that other consoles are able to handle very easily. The GBA, for example, actually just sucks if you're playing anything other than a turn based game like Pokemon. Try playing Sonic Advance or Mega Man Zero, and tell me that's fun. Meanwhile, you can find an emulation device for $50 or less that can play any GBA game that you want these days. It absolutely smashes early Playstation games though, which isn't always feasible with other consoles. So that's definitely a big win there. Just a bit pricey of a console to be able to justify buying if you want to play things other than early Sony titles. Not to mention the process of soft-modding isn't exactly easy for the average user and puts them at risk of bricking their console that they just likely paid a pretty penny for.

I agree that if you want to play 90s games and before, there are cheaper options. But the vita plays all PS1, PSP, and Vita games perfectly. Not really any other options currently for playing Vita games, especially on the go. Also from my experience, I have had no issues playing any GBA, SNES, N64, etc. But I will continue to mess with it. And the modding is as simple as its ever been. You can mod your Vita from the Vita itself, no PC needed.

[@Gloryboyquan]

gba runs fine on my vita 😕

[@guypeters9309]

hmm I'll agree with you in some part...there is no reason to get a Vita unless you want to play PSP & Vita games. However that is a big selling point...while PSP emulation is getting decent...Vita emulation is still very rough right now. Also keep in mind the Vita's CPU is downclocked by default to 333mhz...it can scale fine up to 1.2ghz but given the Vita wasn't designed to dump that much heat...it shouldn't be ran at that speed for very long. Which means if I upped the clock I could run all non-WinCE based Dreamcast games on the Vita. Just fired up Sonic Advance GBA and it played fine...I guess who you talked to had a bad experince. Soft modding the Vita is a non issue these days...unless you have a funky setup like I do with my 3G model...and even that isn't so bad.

[@dylanpreciado4110]

​​@@guypeters9309Hey hi, I have a question. What does "soft modding" mean?

[@TatsuyaWow]

100$ handheld like retroid pocket 2s can do psp ps1 but not ps vita it almost the same price so it kinda worth it @@guypeters9309

[@kawaii8088]

if you are a poor kids (broke) yes you need a PSVita jailbreak modded crack etc.😂

[@anapham4724]

Easy bruh everyone needs a life hack😅

[@salvadorbravo8574]

Which vita do you recommend. I’ve seen some from Japan

[@bigcarlinblick904]

Wow God bless the modders I'm definitely getting one now

[@Dashi26]

No, Jr.. It didn't sell well because of lack of support, no 1st party games. It was a gem in Japan because it was mainly a JRPG console and nothing else. Plus, everything else was too expensive, like the memory card. They didn't take regular micro SD cards but rather their own redesign with a hefty price tag. It was more greed and lack of support that dug the grave for the best hand held ever created. Damn Shame, too. No Nintendo or Sega or whatever other hand held ever released came close to how good the Vita was

[@SuntaX10]

Where can I download ps games in batches? Torrents? Do you mind to share your ps game library? Tnx!

[@RandomAccount-pu1dq]

Wait can you customize (change theme, add mods, etc.) the PS Vita 2000 or is it just the 1000 that van do that. I need to know im getting one soon 😢😮😅😊

[@gEnZ16]

Can you remove the battery of a ps vita slim and plug it on a powerbank for longer playtime?

[@Gloryboyquan]

Keep The Vita vids Coming Bro !

[@GamersChoiceYouTube]

Will do! 😏🤝

[@treflipsd1]

Still play mine all the time. Way ahead of its time.

[@ithiellaviera8476]

Can you recommend videos that show you how to setup all those things on my vita

[@barrygiles3711]

Great video. Is there a way to play backup PSP UMD films (iso files) on the PS Vita, perhaps via Adrenaline? Is it possible?

[@orbitxgalaxy697]

Damn that’s sick I can’t wait to buy one if I where to purchase a vita what model would be best ?

[@mena1906]

wich version needed to get it modet ? is there special version or every vita can be moded ?

[@justryan6480]

Is it possible to get PS2 games on this? Its always been a dream of mine to play the Jack and Daxter games while being on the move, or playing Shadow the Hedgehog.

[@urbielatenightgamingadvent567]

I see you play ps2 games. How great is the support for it?

[@danielkuaffo4633]

Do you know how to get GTA series on the vita(SA,VC,GTA 3)

[@tris228]

This was so helpful!

[@GamersChoiceYouTube]

Glad to hear that!

[@jesusalbertovargascastro632]

[@mrlazy2343]
