Death to the PS Vita!!??
palmer6strings:
So, I bet you all though it was gonna show pictures of me breaking a Vita. SORRY!!! I'm not gunna!
What this is really about is, I still want a Vita. But it just never seemed to get good support. I hardly ever see anything new come out and I believe Sony has already claimed to be done making major titles for it.
Granted there are a few... FEW good games that come out for it from some other companies.
So anymore if I buy one, shoul I just go ahead and put custom firmware on it?
Someone please help give me some insight on these subjects and throw out some opinions too.

Well........
It does have a nicer screen to play ps1 and PSP games on.
That's what I primarily use mine for.
It's sad really. The Vita is an incredible system that still should have more of a life to it. SONY is squandering it. It gives me flashbacks to Minidisc.

It is a real disappointment. So much untapped potential with this system.
Its obvious lack of retail success means i will never get what i was hoping for all along ... the PS-Vita-XL. I've always wanted a WiiU Tablet sized Vita. It would make remote play so much better have a screen where i can read the text and full sized buttons for remote play (the Dekavita 7 doesn't cut it).

So in other words it's awesome retro portable unit, oh an it plays vita games.
Custom firmware? Whatcha think? If I can easily play backups of my owned ps1 games that would be awesome. (Because it's a pain in the arse to do on the psp.)
The main reason I want one is Borderlands 2, Terraria, Minecraft, and some good JRPG's.

I absolutely think you should go ahead and pick one up. I think its an amazing system that was underutilized. See video for good explanation:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=REaUzHef9h4
All that said, the system does have the JRPG's you're looking for, and while custom firmware may be the way to go eventually, I don't believe that you will need to step up to it just yet. Memory cards for the vita are too expensive currently to get the biggest size, which you'd probably want with the custom firmware.
