I STILL want one of these so bad. Wish they weren't so expensive as I just cannot justify spending so much on such an outdated piece of tech :(

Should I buy a PS Vita, or a PSP? Thinking about getting another retro console and I'm not sure which one to get.

You can get a mint condition Japanese PSP-1000 for about a quarter of the price of a Vita! If you solder in a 5000-6000 mah battery you can get some 14+ hours of gameplay between charges! You can also fit a ton of games on a cheap 64-128gb microsd with a $3 adapter, and adding a USB-C port so it charges with the same cable as everything else is pretty easy!

Praise be the Vita. It's name means life and so it will live in our hearts forever.

I love the Vita! It just feels so right in the hand, and the clicky d-pad/face buttons are the best. I like it so much that around a year ago I ported one of my favorite indie games to it.

I thought about getting one, but now I got the Gamesir X2 Pro for my phone and I don't see how a real Vita could give me any advantages over my current setup. I love this controller!

Funny, I had one of these in my hands the other day and was quite impressed!

Nice do you play minecraft on vita by any chance?

[–] MudMan@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

It came out at the wrong time, but it is amazingly well designed. I'm looking at mine right now.

I like the design so much, in fact, that when it came time to buy a handheld PC I got the GPD Win4. Guess why.

Man, I used to have PSP back in the day, and I loved it.

And now, I am kinda pondering, on buying a PS Vita, for some emulation. And I think I sure will do that. Just.. gotta get money first..

The amount of Dissidia and Persona 4 Golden I played on this thing was unreal. Gorgeous screen on the original model and I actually really liked the bubble UI.

It's a shame the memory card standard killed this thing off. Would have loved to see more support for it.

Yup! I loved my PS Vita but was going through some money issues so sold it. I wish I never did or had to. :(

I remember being a kid and wanting one of these SOOOOO bad. Never got to experience it! Steamdeck has filled that lost time for me!

[–] jast1117@vlemmy.net 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sold mine earlier this year because I needed the money for rent. I loved that thing, I miss it all the time. It was my Persona and SMT machine, so many hours...

[–] lemmyvore@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago

Had to sell my LCD monitor once to make rent... I loved that monitor, had researched it and bought it specifically. 🙁

Hang in there, things will be looking up before you know it.
