Found my old PS Vita - Can we get some appreciation for how great this handheld was/is?

If you haven't already, 100% look into software modding it, you'll thank us later!

I’ve been looking into how to install h-encore, so hopefully can get that working.

Apologies for being lazy

I have a vita that ultimately stopped working, and gets stuck in a boot loop (original os, no modding/tampering done). Do you think it's hardware related? Or could I still flash a new os on that puppy.

I wanted to guy a Switch, and I am debating if I want to mod now and get an older model, or buy a new one and wait for better methods. Or... I could install one of the modchips on it

Or you can get a Steam Deck and play Switch games on that 😉

I was thinking of online play as I got my 3DS 1 year ago for that, but I just remembered that it now costs monthly for subpar service. Honestly, you are making me thinking about it more now about what I wanna get.

I sold my PSP years ago and now have a modchipped switch. With the release of android for it, I can play most PSP games on the PPSSPP emulator. Some games have issues, but even the God of War games run at full speed. It’s definitely not as small as the PSP or Vita. I’d recommend getting the OLED model and using a mod chip, as that’s probably the only way to hack it. Nintendo really locked down the later versions
