It's sleek, it's solid, there are no hardware issues at all, the buttons are all clicky, it has an OLED screen, the menus are intuitive, and I cannot find a single flaw with its design. When you play it, you feel like a millionaire. Games like Killzone Mercenary pushed this system hard and you need to remind yourself that this is a 10 year old dedicated handheld with a passive cooling system.
Why did Sony murder it? Why didn't they even attempt to save it by packing it in with the PS4 in a bundle when the PS4 launched? They had the best designed handheld of all time, only for it to be killed off. Just imagine what a third handheld system from Sony would have been like.
Also, this was the very final system to ever have SOUL.

Wake me up when you can play Soul Sacrifice Delta, Freedom Wars, Uncharted Golden Abyss, or Killzone Mercenary elsewhere.
PSP and VITA were so good, too bad about the marketing

psp was better

Out of all those games Killzone Mercenary is literally the only one worth it and it's for 1 playthrough. I already did with my old vita before selling it for a new 2ds xl and I still consider it the best vidya investment I've ever done in my life.
I remember buying a disc for La Blue Girl on the PSP that was just sold between the other normal anime. That was a fun week. I never had a vita though.
John Ross
PSP has a better library which is all that matters
Daniel Roberts
Omg....brown ppl use v? Cmon
Alexander Hill
Even though practically the entire PSP's library is on the Vita
Gavin Kelly
The thing about the vita being shit compared to the PSP is that it can not stand on it's own without the PSP's library, sure it is a psp but better, but the thing is that it's not better enough. Meanwhile literally just to put an example the 3DS would stand on it's own without being backwards-compatible, and the fact that it IS backwards-compatible just adds to it.
Of course if you have money being IDORT is the best choice, but the vita really does not have enough for it to be something that warrants buying when you already have a psp. If you don't have a PSP though absolutely get a vita if you find one cheap. Don't know how cancerous the emulation machine market is but also if a vita is cheaper than those things that say they play everything up to the ps1 and have decent build quality then sure also get a vita.

>Sony funded a call of duty game instead of San Andreas stories what were they thinking
Cooper Bennett
Rockstar had "Vice City Nights" planned for the system, using 4 and 5's continuity and a new and larger Vice City set to the standards of the cities of those two games, but it was cancelled it when it was early in development.
Robert Jenkins
Nice fake story with no proof user. What's next, a new f-zero coming to switch?
Ryder Hernandez
Its a masterpiece and the last true handheld
Colton Perry
that leak was confirmed fake lol
Jackson Flores
>this small studio Japanese dungeon crawler features lightly clothed barely pubescent little girls? Haha, looks like a game I should play. I love my Vita.
It's a pretty powerful and solid handeld but the library of games is really small (but it has some good titles). I agree what said about ps vita being carried by ps portable's library of games. The only thing that might make psv better than 3ds is the homebrew scene which seems to grow everyday.
>Its a masterpiece Debatable >and the last true handheld Even if you hate the 3DS this is a retarded take.

PSP mogs.

Zachary Ramirez
>soul is just a buzzword for it being dogshit. and that's exactly why it was killed off. Wrong
>one was and still is enough for handheld games Until you actually use the right analog stick in PSP games, you don't ever want to go back to the shitty original control scheme because Sony stupidly didn't put a right analog stick on the PSP to begin with.
Tyler Ward
had some great parts,but too little in the way of good games to grab normies,and not enough AAA support to grab the kind of people who want a portable version of what they have at home,though i heard good things about the killzone game for it.
Wyatt Roberts
I wonder how many people bought the PSP for its media features, which was quite capable for the time. The Vita doesn't have that draw
Joseph Bell
>fat and shitty Nah
Connor Edwards
hacked vita is only for kings retards simply cannot understand it, and that is a good thing.
>The only thing that might make psv better than 3ds is the homebrew scene which seems to grow everyday. Eventually, just because the vita is obviously way more powerful and allows you to do more, but so far the 3ds is still keeping up since pumping weak hardware full of homebrew is basically an art for tendie homebrewers.
youtube.com/watch?v=5kVs8Z-WGDk I have this btw, on new 2ds xl it runs at flawless 60 fps at 800px if you don't turn aa on, with aa it only drops fps on certain levels.
It was a cool piece of hardware compared to the 3DS. Too bad Sony mishandled it so hard, and now the Switch has improved on it in nearly every way.
Brody Turner
You're a retarded take faggot
Brayden Turner
>Wrong ok so no argument. >2 sticks are good because they are less shit than 1 stick this brings us back to the thing I said about >soul=shit hence psp has more SOVL than vita henceforth psp>>>>vita
Anthony Long
Vita and even 3ds is much more ergonomic and comfortable than switch
Anthony Mitchell
Switch is shit to hold you are based user never forgetti that
Jordan Lewis
n3ds clocks higher though, more useful for some emulators
Aiden Perry
I had a fat PSP when they first came out and i fucking loved it so much, it was like having a smartphone before smartphones only had like 3 games for it though, Dissidia, Crisis Core, and Phantasy Star i loved that thing though. what happened was either the battery stopped working or it couldn't charge for some reason, idk why but that's how it stopped working for me
Brayden James
user, not only is this untrue, although the Vita has less games, it has much higher quality games. Aside from Persona, Ys and the enhanced PS1 ports, the PSP really doesn't have much else going on for it as most of the its draw back in the day were the downgraded PS2 ports, most of which have no point in this day and age. In fact, now with homebrew support, the Vita does the portable PS2 thing much better, and many games from the PS3 era (like all the Vanillaware stuff) runs just as good on the Vita, and also have the added benefit of the best D-Pad in existence, which is a must for them. And this is without talking about other genres such as shooters, sports, fighting and racing games just being much better on the Vita than the PSP.
Ultimately, the Vita is so good that people are always quick to compare it to its home console brethren, all the while forgetting that the Vita is a portable console, it's not supposed to run everything like a home console would.
>Aside from Persona, Ys and the enhanced PS1 ports, the PSP really doesn't have much else going on You get a (you) because that did make me chuckle.
Angel Adams
Neither did the PS4 in comparison to the PS3, especially the Phat.
The main problem with the Vita is that it didn't have the staple 3rd party support that the PSP had. It was missing a good original Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid and Grand Theft Auto games. First part support could have been better with Gran Turismo and TLoU, as those are the big Sony sellers. Everything else the Vita did right.
Justin Moore
The 3DS is overrated and the library absolutely does not stand on its own which is why everyone brings up its DS bc without fail
Jackson Richardson
Extremely ironic post. If the 3ds library can not stand on it's own the Vita's library cannot even crawl.
Alexander Bailey
>It was missing a good original Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid and Grand Theft Auto games.
It had every Final Fantasy, in one form or another, from I to X-2. It had Metal Gear Solid 2, 3, and Peace Walker (while it's retarded that 1 was never made available). Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories, and Chinatown Wars is backwards compatible on the system (and there is a hack using AutoPlugin that codes in right analog stick support for Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories). The Vita is the only way to play both of those games, since they were never released on PC (despite them being mainline entries, and being MUCH more complex than 3 or Vice City).
Angel Rivera
Genuine piece of shit that only worth it if you are a mentally ill tranny weeb. PSP is the only good handheld ever made.
Luke Davis
>The Vita is the only way to play both of those games, since they were never released on PC What the fuck are you on about? They're on PSP and PS2.
>3 lbs, 3x the size of a vita, 2 hours battery garbage

the fuck are you on about?
Jeremiah Peterson
You need the physical copies for PSP and PS2.
Ethan Moore
basedtch is clunky, oversized and built poorly, creaky joycons and garbage build quality all around also, baby kiddie games
Julian Hernandez
based I have 250GB sd full of vita games cope retard mario, zelda and pokemon are for babies and women if you play them, you should feel bad about yourself
Christopher Taylor
>he doesnt know what piracy is holy shit the absolute fucking state of zoomers
Andrew Rodriguez
>he has a vita that he doesn't even hack HAHAHAHHAHAH HOLY FUCK
You're right. I don't have any hacks. Just h_encore, Enso, VitaShell, VitaDeploy, AutoPluginII, Adrenaline...
Connor Wood
They gave it a gay name like vita that ensured chads like me would stay far away from it. What the fuck is a vita. Literally the nerdiest shit they ever did and confirmed by all the pedo weeb games which is all it has. Should have just called it PSP2.
>Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories, and Chinatown Wars is backwards compatible user probably meant a new Vita-exclusive one. Would've been a better deal than the lame COD game we got I bet
Nolan Martinez
>mario, zelda and pokemon are for babies and women Said the Snoy and went back to playing LittleBigPlanet.
