Target has them on sale for 42 bucks, which stacks with a 50 Dollar off Cartwheel App scan for 21 bucks. 21 bucks for old stock of a current gen console that's easily hackable.
If you want one, get one now. This might have finally beaten the 99 dollar OLED 3G Vita + Gravity Rush + Hot Shots golf from 2012.

>50 dollar off
Meant 50 percent off. Some stores still also have the Lego bundle for 100, so if you really want a DS3 and the other shit, that's an option too.
It was 20 dollars last year on Amazon
Here is the thing though.
With Vita TV, you don't really have as big of. Memory card problem. Though not terribly continent, you could easily get by with an 8 GB card and mange it through the ememory manager app, essentially using your PC to "swap cards" over the network.
Handheld users don't have this option, but It is a viable option for Vita TV.
That was then, this is now. So many threads these days of people buying vitas and trying to get older firmwares. This might be one of the last chances to do so at a good price brand new with older stock.
I know it is no guarantee, but what firmware did yours end up having?
If you get the bundle version, it comes with an 8GB memory card and Dual Shock controller, plus an old firmware.
If you have a PS3 and an extra Vita memory card laying around (preferably 8GB or higher) the standard version is all you need.

Gimme a few and I will tell you. Need to find a compatible controller and check.
This is actually my 2nd vita TV. Current one is at 3.52 and I am hoping this new one will be earlier. That way I have something for PSP havks and something for Vita hacks.
>Mona Fan
Wow, long time no see!
Doing another vidya deals general this Christmas?
Pro tip: like other shitty 8th gen Sony decisions, Vita TV has no feet. Go to Walmart, and buy like a 2 buck pack of feet so the damned puck doesn't slide around.
We will see, we will see.
Also, fuck yeah.
Who HENkaku here?
I am not, nor am I that well versed. By all means, link some links and post some guides.
henkaku.xyz
It's impossible to fuck up.
My Vita's on 3.61 and my PS TV is on 3.60
My 64GB card is in my Vita, and I swap the card between both devices
Am I screwed on the PS TV for HENkaku?
Nope actually, there's a way to make it work. Both using the same PSN account?
Yup, pls help user
You forgot about the $100 memory card, dumbass
>no games
No thanks
Is there a way to hack the VitaTV to see network storage as a memory card?
That would be the best workaround to the overpriced storage.
Sony shill thread?
Remember that if you buy a PS TV new, you’re guaranteed to have a firmware below 3.60, as the production of PS TV was discontinued a while ago. A such, new PS TVs are guaranteed to be on a low firmware.
>Have no memory card in PSTV
>Get VitaUpdateBlocker working on the PSTV (very important)

No unfortunately
No, but again it's not as bad a problem as it is for handheld vita owners due to the PC memory manager software to swap files over the network.
Me a Sony shill? Thanks for the laugh.
Would this cause any problems when putting the card back in my 3.61 Vita?
Watch who you're talking to, tripfaggot. I'll fucking end you
>which stacks with a 50 Dollar off Cartwheel App scan
What's that and how do I use it?
No, after you do all this you should be able to swap the memory card back and forth between the two consoles happily.
Just don't update the PSTV, so you can undo the permanent hack if necessary.
You're a diamond user
Okay, is there any way to have access to pirate PSP games, access PSN store OR have the ability to connect to PS3 to install PSN games, whitelist non-compatible vita TV title AND pirate vita games? What havks and what firmware?
>have smart phone
>download cartwheel app
>add the coupon to your account
>go to target with vita tv in stock
>grab one, go to checkout
>scan your cartwheel QR code
>get the amount taken off.
Does it not work online?
>Okay, is there any way to have access to pirate PSP games
3.52 and below
>access PSN store
HENkaku does it on 3.60 only
> have the ability to connect to PS3 to install PSN games
Any firmware can do this with VitaUpdateBlocker
>whitelist non-compatible vita TV title
3.60 and anything at or below 3.52 firmware can do this
> pirate vita games?
3.60 only with HENkaku. Also the selection is a bit limited atm, some games don't dump correctly
Yep!
Don't vita games look like shit on a big TV though? and aren't you limited to only games that don't rely on touch controls?
>with older stock
There are no new Vitas available, every single (sealed) Vita you buy is guaranteed to have low FW you uneducated tripfag.
I seem to be in a similar position. I don't care about vita piracy. But I absolutely need to be able to play every vita game on Vita TV, and play PSP game dumps and all legit vita games.
So 3.52 is the firlmware I should be using? And staying on? Any good update blocked tutorials?
Every vita tv will not have firmware past 3.6, but for vita hacks someone might want even older firmware.
As a Nintendo die-hard, if you are cool with Wii games on an HD set, vita TV shouldn't be a problem for you. Just make sure you have a good panel with a decent scaler.
I mean, vita games should look better on a TV than wii Games, 480p vs 540p internal rendering after all.
They look OK.
No, you can emulate touch controls with the DS3 (clumsy) or DS4 (less clumsy)
3.52 sounds like what you want. Most people care more about pirating Vita games than PSP games which is why they're rallying around 3.60.
Every PSTV is sold with 3.20 so there is no reason whatsoever to be worried about "last chances with older stock" as there is no such thing as new stock.
Has HENkaku allowed for any cool PSTV hacks?
like forced 1080p, etc.?
No as it's not CFW. It's just a mere memory patch.
> forced 1080p
not happening
there's the whitelist hack but you probably know about that
the only thing that's kind of cool is that emulators can support multiple pads
Shame
the 720p/1080i restriction never made sense to me
Is it worth it to solely play muramasa? How does it look on a big screen? Do i need to buy a ps4 controller or can i use a wiiu pro one (with hackz' n shiet)? Also i guess the 1gb of internal memory is not enough for the game+save file right? Why does vita memory cost so fucking much?
inb4 emulate the wii version
i wanna play all the dlcs
what exactly can you do with this? i mean like, what can you expect to be able to hack it to do if you just pick one up at the store? is possible to get one with firmware too recent to be able to do anything good? this is the first time ive even heard of what these are
yes
Not brilliant but pretty good
nope, ps3/ps3 is your only choice
The base game and the DLC fits on the internal memory
Because Sony can
This is what happens when you take a Vita and turn it into a home console
If you wanted to play Vita games but didn't want to spend as much money, this is for you
You can pirate some Vita games. Not all of them yet, the dumper is kind of shit.
If you buy one new, it's guaranteed to have a good firmware. Used is a mixed bag so check first.
Yeah, basically I want an all-in-one solution for pirating last gen and play song this gen. For me PSP takes priority because Vita TV is the only way to natively play PSP games on a TV with a separate controller and digital full screen AV out as opposed to the shitty component implementation of PSP 2K 3K.
Umm... Mine was 3.35, so the 3.2 for everything PSTV is deinfinitely inaccurate.
>3.52 sounds like what you want
Why? 3.18 (or even 3.36) is much better for that kind of stuff
Is there a reason for me to get a Vita TV to hack aside from piracy? I hacked my PSP to put all my games on the memory card and I hacked my 3DS to back up my saves and make it region free but what is there for the Vita? Only thing I can think of really is something that lets me switch accounts easier but since I already have a Vita I could just use one for each account anyway most of the time.
so you can play vita games, and you can pirate some? what about psp? also, would it support pirating vita games and also being able to play real ones if it didnt have something you wanted?
I see. Well you could emulate or use a PSP Go + FuSa instead, but that's up to you.
Mona doesn't sound like he cares about PS1 stuff or Rejuvenate which is all I can think of for why he'd want earlier.
This new one I got is 3.35.
You have my complete attention. Why is 3.36 better? Remember, I can only update, and can't go back, so want to make it an update for a version high enough to do things but low enough to not limit me.
Why would 3.36 be ideal for me, and do you have a tutorial?
I probably wouldn't even get one for $20.
>so you can play vita games, and you can pirate some?
Yes.
>what about psp?
PSP stuff only works on 3.52 or earlier, while Vita piracy is only for 3.60 exactly.
> also, would it support pirating vita games and also being able to play real ones if it didnt have something you wanted?
Yes. There's a physical cartridge slot and you can also buy digital games by using a PS3 or (for now) PSN spoofing.
If you want to take a look for yourself what each firmware can do rather than being spoonfed, this is quite useful.

>PSP stuff only works on 3.52 or earlier, while Vita piracy is only for 3.60 exactly.
Any ways to have both PSP and Vita piracy?
My Vita is 3.52
so, getting a new one from the store, i could expect to (at the minimum) be able to play vita games and then either pirate psp games or pirate some vita games? thats really tempting, thanks for the info
the memory cards though, that makes it almost like buying a console for this
Thanks for the link!
Nose, this is exactly why I got a second one just in case. Can't have the cake and eat it too sadly.
Sure, go reverse-engineer the HENkaku stage 3 payload, port it to lower FW and you're good to go.
Nope. Not yet, at least; it's likely to happen in the future.
You're right, memory cards are a bitch. It comes with 1GB internal which is useful if you stay strictly physical, but if you want to download or pirate anything you should get at least an 8GB and backup/restore whatever you're not playing to your PC.
Keep in mind that even though the PSP piracy is possible on lower FWs, you need a legit PSP game (not sure if it needs to be exploitable one since failmail can also write to filesystem) so unless you have either the game or a PS3 you're kinda screwed in that regard.
It doesn't need to be exploitable, any PSP game and some PSP demos can be used because of failmail
No prob on that front, but still good to know, I just have some games on UMD which I absolutely need dumps of to be able to play on the Vita TV.
>recommends trash bags for putting your new Sony TV purchase in
Please respond. I'm tempted but at the same time I don't want to hack it if I'm not going to be doing anything with it.
piracy is the main thing
emulators maybe?
are muramasa and dragon's crown piratable?
muramasa I can confirm personally can be pirated, dunno about DC
i just have no idea what i'd do with it even if i got it for free.
been streaming steam with my intel compute stick and that seems about 90000% more useful.
Well if I'm emulating I'd want it to be on my portable Vita (which I already updated to 3.61 without thinking). My Wii is good enough for emulating on my TV and I have my laptop for things I can't emulate on there. I guess local save backups are really the only thing. That would be useful for my Japanese account I suppose since I don't have PS+ on it. As long as I can still access the store and not get banned or anything then I'll go ahead with it cause I like having local backups.
You can use it to install VHBL on your Vita, I guess?
That will at least let you emulate up to SNES and GBA.
How long does it take it to flash for pic related?
Whats the lowest price I could pay with getting a DS3 and a memory card?
press install and you're done
dunno, I think there's a bundle
Why would you need Vita TV if it can't play half of Vita games, including some of the best ones like Tearaway?
whitelist hack makes it play 90% of Vita games
Because you can hack it to whitelist it so you can play any game with a DS4.
Would this be bad for rhythm games? I know you can play some of them on there but I'm worried about input lag.
You still can't because DS4 doesn't have proper touch screen, backtouch and camera.
The fuck is a vita TV
I hope this is the start of a very long line of multiplayer focused games
Good deal, thanks Mona. Going to pick one up in a few. It's worth it to me just to be able to play Vita games on the big screen. Maybe I'll mess with the henkaku shit down the line
It's a screenless vita inside a hockey puck that you connect to your TV.
last I heard, vita TV adds no inherent lag. As long as you have a fast panel, it should be a non-issue, but technically, your mileage may vary.
Nobody wants one because there's NO GAMES.
My TV doesn't seem to have any "gaming mode" or anything. Is there some way to hook it up to a CRT or something? Can't imagine that would look good but it wouldn't have lag I don't think.
Even if that was true (truthfully for me, might as well be true), it's still a great PSP player.
Probably not, it only has HDMI output
Why am I even doing this?
Anyways... Connect the vita to one of these.
Then connect THAT to one of these
radioshack.com
Finally connect THAT to one of these if you don't have component
Guess I'll just have to do that stupid shit with the factory reset to switch accounts every time I want to play one. Oh well.
That's a bit pricey but I'll consider it. Also, now that I think about it, could the converters and all that introduce lag?
Read up on fudoh's lenkeng clone boxes...
What does thing do again?
Just play Vita games on your TV?
yes
And PSP games
And PS1 games
And if you have a PS4 in another room, it's essentially a PlayStation steam link.
Do I need to buy a bigger memory card to hold the games on it?
Also, how's the quality?
A game meant for a certain resolution and then stretched out would make it look shitty wouldn't it?
can you explain what it is? VitaTV allows you to play vita games without an actual vita handheld?

I'll take 8!
