Was it good?
>>
>>739041124
no... it was SHIT!
>>
>>739041124
God Tier Handheld with like 3 games.
Being able to play the entire PSP library is not like bad but the name was stupid and the game cases for the vita were really damn embarrasing.
>>
>>739041124
No.
>>
>>739041124
too ahead of its time
>>
>>739041124
Only if you were an otaku, which is fine I guess. I'm not really a Neptunia fan though.
>>
>>739041124
no but I like playing mhfu on it
>>
>>739041124
Ironically became better after its prime time. Like the PSP, it took a while for jailbreakers to turn it into one of the best handheld experiences. As for actual sales and stuff, it never caught on outside of Japan because most of the content was made for Japan.

Thousands of hours of Monster Hunter on it

yes but...it could have been magnificent

>>739041124
It was great if you saw it for what it was: a solid handheld with some quirky bullshit but a pretty good library and a number of quality ports on top of its own original stuff. Some will say it's even where some series like Monster Hunter or Phantasy Star peaked. And if you love visual novels or obscure JRPGs it has some of the classic greats on there. But if you were hoping it was some sort of equal counterpart to the PS2 or able to accompany the PS3 in a strong capacity, it was pretty fucking dogshit, and the sales on many games showed that. Too ahead of its time as a portable multimedia platform, and not enough staying power against Nintendo to justify itself.

the best handheld to this day
I just want the same thing with a more powerful SoC
>>
>>739043318
>a handheld famous for having no monster hunter games other than a port of FU, to the point several MHclones were made purely to try and capitalise on people who bought Vita thinking they'll get some MonHun on it and now felt duped
>this is where monster hunter peaked
What did he mean by this
>>
>>739043842
what are you, an american-only

The last good handheld. Switch and steam deck are slop.

Banger game catalogue but It didnt appeal to casuals, so of course It flopped. Console gamers only like movie games and bing bing wahoos

>>739043842
I think he saw a PSP instead
>>
>>739041124
Only modded.
>>
>>739041124
No, it doubled down on the PSP's mistakes. And in a time period when such mistakes were even greater in a relative sense.
>>
>>739043925
Yeah, I've been looking up handhelds and PSP stuff so much I brainfarted and thought I saw one instead of the Vita. Only ever had the PSTV for that shit so not reflexively ingrained in my brain there.
>>
>>739042058
literally exactly the opposite, it was awfully behind
now, the original PSP, that was too ahead of its time
>>
modded vitas are overrated, psp games look awful on it and 99% of vita games worth playing are on other consoles. psp had a much more lively and interesting homebrew scene and it made a lot more sense value wise to have a modded psp at the time. vita even to this very day is the most dogshit way to emulate the few consoles it can actually handle without stuttering
>>
>>739041124
vita has no games
monster hunter psp games with two sticks is really fucking nice though
>>
>>739043318
pso games peaked on the psp with portable 2, nova was very average and barely anyone has even played it even with the translation patch being out
>>
Not really. Resolution was too high in games and the system wasn't durable, battery life was shit. Couldn't be powered from a power bank while you played, I think. Games on it weren't good.
Could use it as a browser, and if you bought an app, as a notepad, and portable music player, and video player. Could have been a lot better. Should have been the switch.
>>
I bought my Vita for $80 a week before a jailbreak method was discovered and I still felt ripped off getting the entire game library for less than $100.
>>
>>739041124
No, because it didn't felt like a portable gaming console
Way too advanced for its time. Games didn't felt comfy to play because they are exactly like the usual console games.

Holy retard
>>
>>739041124
Yes but It was bogged down with whothefuckcares titles.
If they made it somehow able to play all PS3/2/1 titles Sony could've had their Nintendo killer but instead we got what we got.
Even the PSP could play all PS1 titles through official e-boot but not this despite having the power needed.
>>
>>739043957
This right here!

I keep mine overclocked and it has helped smooth out a lot of games.
>>
>>739047161
it's not a matter of power
the psp has ps1 hardware in it. the vita has most of it but not the spu and a few others
