This is a research board to probe Vita memory card access. Not an SD adapter.

I would pay prob $100 bucks for an SD adapter even if it stuck out a little or some poo poo.

So I broke down and bought a used PSP from somebody local off of Facebook Marketplace. I'd forgotten what an amazing little piece of hardware these things were. Where the Vita is basically an underpowered console with a built-in screen, the PSP is an overpowered handheld.

On the other hand, trying to find and download old purchases off of PSN is painful. No, Sony, I don't need to see a list of every goddamn thing I've ever gotten on PSN, most of which are marked 'Not usable on PSP.' I just want to see a list of 'PSP, full games.'

Honestly it’s just easier to hack the loving thing. Trying to go through the PSN is painful.

I got my PSP out a couple of weeks ago and it went back in the drawer about 20 minutes later when I remembered I have a hacked Vita that can play anything I'd be playing on the PSP anyway.

That screen is loving terrible after playing on the Vita, and the analog stick is basically a torture device.

I still like my PSPgo. Its nice and small I don't use it much but I play with it every so often.

Yes, but in the off chance you have an OLED Vita with 3G, you can pop out the 3G modem and replace it with an SD card reader. It's a lot more work to set up because it requires opening up your Vita, but it keeps the game card slot open.

If you have an OLED Vita without 3G (or a 3G Vita that's already been updated to 3.69), you can get replacement motherboard with the 3G modem slot and sub-3.69 firmware from Aliexpress. I got one a few months ago for around $35. It's a bit of a project to replace the motherboard, so I'd only advise it for those comfortable working with small electronics. I had a bitch of a time getting the old 3G modem out of mine after I stripped the screws holding it down.

drat this actually isn't a bad idea. I have this and I might just do it.

The newer devices like the RG350 are much better with emulation (afaik perfect with all snes) and will play PS1 games too.

I kinda gave up on emulation with my vita and just use it for ps1 / psp / vita which it’s perfect for.

The vita will still remote play with the PS4 right? Does the pro do anything at all for remote play?

Are the rumors about the vita store closing true? I need to find a way to back up all my stuff then because my 64gb card isn't going to hold everything

Yeah its closing in August but AFAIK you can still download old purchases once it closes. Who knows how long they will keep that alive though.

The Vitas poor SNES legitimately has almost made me go down the rabbit hole of those cheap Android/Linux emulator handhelds. Some of them seem pretty awesome. I just want a all in one emulation handheld for up to PS1. The Vita is so close.

All are welcome friend

The RG351 is the new hotness and it can even upscale ps1 games.

Are there *any* sub $200 handhelds that run decent SNES emulation? That always seems to be a sticking point. One of my earlier memories is being disappointed in SNES emulation on my IBM Aptiva E

Yeah the RG351 and RV351 do. They are $100 (ish)

To make matters worse, the studio bought a new PS Vita developer kit through Sony just last month, with no warning about the looming closure. Some bigger-name developers (who asked to remain anonymous) were warned in advance.

Dear god why?
