I greatly prefer the PSP to the 3DS for homebrew for a plethora of reasons.

 

[Effigenius]

Does anyone know if this or the vita tv hack let you load the crash and spyro games?

Maybe

Psp cannot even run SNES

 

[MrChocolate]

Maybe

Psp cannot even run SNES

Vita can, full speed and with DAT OLED and DPAD :^)

 

[NormalFish]

Maybe

a large number of snes games can run at intended framerate on the psp.

And that's not even what I was referring to. What I want from homebrew, really, is expanded system functionality. PSP has that like no other.

Vita is the best portable snes (except maybe gp32)

For everything else n3ds (except maybe gp32)

Whats the best emulator to use on vita? Is there a link I can use?

Everything else..?
Does that include PC Engine, Genesis, Nes, Mame etc...
Better than the Vita...wow that is surprising, who would have guessed.
Hoping that that will change soon with the continually growing scene on Vita now.
It certainly has a lot more grunt than n3ds.

I don't know... NeoGeo is pretty much perfect on Vita. Same as NES and Genesis.
GBA games only issues are related to sound.

I believe this should be able to if i'm reading it correctly. Not sure since I haven't gotten a chance tot try it myself yet.

Somebody has found a way to convert PSP games into installable PKG files for Vita, thus getting rid of the need to have a ePSP kernel exploit. Or so it seems.

NeoGeo is a godsend on Vita

Metal Slug on OLED 😱

 

[Young Magus]

All tgis talk of OLED makes me wanna grab a 1000 vita on the cheap side.

Then I remembered that the model is a pain to hold/play compared to the 2000 model

*sigh*

Download Everything you have on psn and store it on a Pc backup nao

 

[Melkezadek]

I wonder if we now we'll have a way to download our PS Classics onto our Vita's directly rather than the PS3-PSP trick.

 

[Chesskid1]

100k unique installs :3

 

[WAR recon zero]

100k unique installs :3

I wondee what % that is of the total user base

 

[Anony]

1 % of 10 million is 100k, so world wide wise, less than 1% most likely

i tried switching retroarch to xmb style and now it just blackscreens on me when it starts up? anyone know how to fix

 

[B.K.]

All tgis talk of OLED makes me wanna grab a 1000 vita on the cheap side.

I still prefer the 2000's LCD screen to the 1000's OLED. I hate the oversaturation on the OLED.

 

[NormalFish]

New henkaku update is AMAZING

 

[TyMiles2012]

The only reason I regret getting the Slim. Slim is more comfortable to hold though.

 

[Elven_Star]

Any proper downgrade methods out there? Now that there is PSN access, I want to give this HENKaku thing a try, but I'm on 3.61 already

 

[Vitacat]

Any place still sell new slims? Did Sony stop making Vitas? I'm not seeing any at the usual places. I have an OG Vita (3.60 and yes I turned off auto update, heh) but am considering a second unit for messing around with.

 

[Dambrosi]

Can't you just buy a 1000 and swap the screens?

Oh, and yes, the new HENkaku is really cool. PSN access is dope.

No you can't

 

[Hikami]

I know you could do this before Henkaku but it's so much easier now. Couldn't do it before because of how complicated it was.

I'll have to redo the Wild Arms and Breath of Fire 4 icons since they didn't come out too well. Regardless, I'm glad to have a way to get rid of the ugly square/rectangle in a circle look my PS1/PSP classics have.

He wasn't using henkaku (mentions what henkaku users should do instead though).
Mostly the same steps, instead of dumping the app.db with the email app you can just copy it over with molecular shell's ftp.

 

[Atomski]

All the people who updated to 3.61 for Psn

But in all seriousness I'm sure Sony will start handing out bans if the hacks keep up like this.

 

[chronic_archaic]

Glad PSN is back. I can play BO Declassified, Killzone and upload my scores to OlliOlli again. If PSN gets permanently patched - well, I'm staying on the hackable firmware.

 

[Tohsaka]

Nice, managed to get my trophies updated on the Vita so I can switch the memory card back to the PSTV without worrying about issues.

 

[EGM92]

Hopefully someone will be able to help me, I'm a complete noob when it comes to retroarch. I installed Henkaku, setup the FTP, connected to the vita, I transfered gpsp_libretro.vpk to the vita root at ux0 and installed the VPK. I also transfered some roms for testing. I open up the bubble go to load content, select a rom, screen goes black, then go back into the retroarch menu. Is there something else I have to do? Am I missing something?

I'm guessing you need the bios file?

You need a GBA bios in ux0:/data/retroarch/cores/system

 

[Joey Ravn]

See? This is exactly why I should never go to sleep. The best news happens while I'm not at my computer and can't report them

Anyways, PSN access is awesome! I was worried about a few PS+ games running out of time, but I can refresh my licences for a few more months now

Yea all my PS+ licenses were due to expire in a week or two, now I have them good for another year.

Question though, to renew the licenses to I have to launch all of them manually or is there a way to do them all at once?

They're still on Amazon. I just ordered one this week.

Honestly, I don't know. I tried launching the games but the licenses didn't refresh. I'm dowloading everything again, because Sony *shrugs*

 

[Harmondale]

Feel stupid now that I dident bought risk of rain last week when it had discount. Thought I would never have access to it.

See If sony Will come out with a new firmwire again..

 

[EGM92]

Nvm I got the SNES emu working, though yoshi's island runs like crap, probably the way I set it up or the build I installed. I can't get GBA to work. Can someone recommend a build that is known to work / run well?

 

[Joey Ravn]

On HENkaku offline installer, by XYZ.

 

[Trace]

Honestly, I don't know. I tried launching the games but the licenses didn't refresh. I'm dowloading everything again, because Sony *shrugs*

It "runs out" in 4 days, I'll just see what happens then. Redownloading the stuff gives the proper time.

 

[twisted89]

Slightly off topic but what's the best trigger grip for the original vita 1000? Want to start using my vita more with henkaku but it kills my hands after a while.

 

[Dwayne]

Has there been any discussion around PlayStation Mobile? Will be very happy to play my games again. Hopefully they can be similarly dumped so they can at least be played outside of the license requirement.
