I own the vita and until I found your channel I thought it's old, useless thing in my drawer. Now I hacked it for the retro gaming (thanks for your videos) and started to play again. Unfortunately, my charger stopped working (it was inevitable, because the cable was for more than 5 years working only thanks to the duct tape) I bought new and I have to wait for it to come. I'm just watching the your videos to spend that time.

Dope review, very honest. I also have both 1000 and 2000 versions of these grips with the l3/r3 attachments, however my 2000 came with a hinge like the 1000 but it only clips the top into the case, not a full face plate. Either way they work wonders and keep my systems safe for cheap, and with the extra attachments, you're right you lose some sleekness but overall feels like a more complete experience. Great video, again.

I tried it with Gravel and was surprised the throttle and brake were on the front. Works for the throttle, but not the brake, as I need that thumb to steer my car. Any way to remap those buttons to the back? I don't want to remap in the game itself, as I otherwise have to constantly adjust them if switching systems. Didn't know games prevented you from adjusting it. Know I'm glad I didn't buy someone's Vita (Slim) with the HORI grip. He was expecting 300€ for it (with adapter and SD 256, but no (official) games).

@Rodox2k103 жыл бұрын
Lets see.. So if I get that installed on my Vita, it's going to be a 360g system (rounded up, obviously). I'm struggling with the original battery, and according to my AmpMeter, it's only charging 1356 mAh out of the default 2210 - that's 61% of battery life left on it after hundreds and hundreds of gameplay hours and after all this time. So I'd also have to go for a battery replacement, maybe 4000 mAh this time, which will probably add maybe 50g more to the weight of an already heavy system. If I got things right, with that grip and a new battery, my Vita 1000 could weight nearly or even more than 400g (almost 410g). Definitely not gonna be playing as much with that much weight in my hands, which kinda counters the point to get and install a new battery to begin with. Hmmm I'm not sure what to do.
