I just got a PS Vita. I haven't read through the posts here.
Actually, I just wanna rant. I payed far from full price and I still feel burned. I'll rant a bit, then spend a day reading about the various hacks then I'll mod the pos.
#1 ! Why can't I play any Pac-Man game except Pac-Man World?
I've bought almost every Pac-Man game for every console I've ever owned - there's tons of them for every system. It's like a break-in ritual for me. I do it on every new system even if it wasn't supposed to be able to play video games - like digital cameras and programmable calculators. All of a sudden I can't play the one game I want to on Sony's new flagship newest best most powerful portable? The guys in Europe got the PS Mini Pacman CE, but I'm cut-off... Why? This system was built for Pac-Man CE!
Also, Space Invader Extreme. No Space Invaders on this console either?
The top EXT Port was supposed to output video like my PSPs do, but despite the hardware being there it's a useless port because last minute they disabled the ability so they could consolize the system? Now I gotta make my own cable and hack the firmware to re-enable that basic function. Meh, if that's what it takes - I'm certainly not gonna buy the Vita PS TV pile of whatever... I already have a stack of media center boxes that aren't quite up-to-snuff. Most of them can play Pac-Man, tho it's difficult to control on a remote.
I legally own Tokyo Jungle Mobile for Playstation Mobile. I bought it on the last day with Playstation Mobile hacked into my rooted Samsung phone (that Xperia phone-like-thing was kinda meh, and wasn't available in Canada). Now it looks like I'll have to hack my Vita pretty extensively to transfer the unlock registration data into this thing.
I still haven't looked much into the PS3 -> PSV video mirroring. Can I actually play Shadow of the Colossus Remastered on this thing? Early details I read of this feature say most-likely "no". At least I'm pretty sure I cannot stream Pac-Man from my PS3 to this. If I'm wrong, then my whole rant loses a lot of steam and I'm happy (unless there's a lot of lag).
Minor thing, but there's so much more Rorita stuff made for it vs. legit other genres that it's kinda...
In any case, I bought it because
the release of Axiom Verge is Imminent!If for no other reason than
AV, this system is pretty cool.
When I've tired of it, my niece can have it to play Minecraft, Crunchyroll and Project Diva.
So, uh, am I wrong on any points? I really do want to like this console and would like someone to correct my misunderstanding of some major perceived flaws.
Edit: Burn!
