So I have some used game credit, and I was thinking about getting a Vita. What can I do if I install homebrew? How easy is piracy?

It's easy to go. Go to /hbg/ if you want to know how.

Thanks!

TL/DR for anybody reading

Firmware 3.60 or lower required
Games through Fall 2016 can be pirated
All new in box western Vita devices will work.

wheere the fuck can i get one us these things no where is selling

So I can pirate any Vita game except those from the last year? That sounds... absolutely amazing? Am I missing something?

Not really, the biggest Vita titles came out before then.

What about emulators? is it as big an emulator machine as the PSP was?

It can do everything that the psp can do because it has a psp emulator built in.

>How easy is piracy?

Pointless because you'll be spending $100 on every memory card big enough to store a whole game on it

Fuck, I do remember hearing about that. But still, that's a 5 year backlog of games I could pirate a few at a time?

What does that include though? Spending $100 on a walking NES/SNES/GBA/PS1/PS2/PSP (???) emulator seems pretty worth it.

>How easy is piracy?
Piss easy. Took me all but 15 minutes to set up. Hardest part was waiting for Moe Chronical to finish downloading. Got five games on my vita with a 16 gig memory card right now. Bit of pain but tolerable when I want to play other stuff.

Can a Vita actually be modded to handle PS2 games alright?

I have been holding onto an un-updated Vita for months, waiting for this

Get a VitaTV and use a usb or harddrive instead.

It can't play ps2 games unless they were specifically ported to vita like persona 4 was.

I have a VitaTV, explain further

It would be fucking amazing and worth every money if it could emulate PS2, but it can't.

PS2 emulation will forever be doomed by PCSX2.

Lame. Guess I misread somewhere. Is there a comprehensive list of what can be emulated?

Not sure how up to date is this one, but still.
I think you can use PSP emulators as well.

no but some people have streamed pcsx2 from their PC using moonlight

How good is Moonlight streaming?
My toaster can't handle Nvidia-something, I was upset.
Is upgrading worth it?
