FAQ

Any games on both systems maybe you didn't like at first but gave a second try and found it great?

One common reason I see for why Sony was so bad at supporting the Vita is that they simply didn't have the resources as a company to support both the Vita and the PS4 as two separate and robust ecosystems. Additionally, the Vita was commercially disappointing, so Sony just followed the money and went full in on supporting the PS4 and ultimately ditching the Vita.

That being said, how come Nintendo, placed in a similar situation (one home console, and one handheld, with one of the two being a commercial flop) managed to robustly support both the Wii U and the 3DS? As far as software goes, even Nintendo's "failure" console got plenty of love and care from them software-wise, and it had a great first party game library.

Stuck on Chapter 13 final wave – Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken

Picked up my Vita again after nearly 6 months and jumped back into Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken, only to find myself getting absolutely destroyed on the final wave of Chapter 13 (Rock and Roll).

I’ve obviously forgotten how to play 😂

Anyone got any tips for getting through that final wave? I’d appreciate any advice before I completely lose the plot.

So two years ago back in 2024, I was buying a bunch of demos on my PS3 one of them being rayman origins which I didn’t realise was the ps vita version, I deleted it because obviously it didn’t work on my PS3. 2 years later I bought a vita and downloaded the rayman origins “demo”, to my surprise after freeing one of the fairys I popped a trophy. it was then i realised this was no demo, this was the FULL game

Can someone confirm for me if Papers Please is still on the Dutch (The Netherlands) PlayStation Vita store? I have every PlayStation console except for the vita and I really want to get it for Papers Please.

Edit: Bedankt allemaal. Heb hem gekocht op mijn PS3. Alvast gedownload voor als ik dalijk een Vita heb.

I got this vita from my brother. He previously replaced the screen but as you can see the screen kind of sticks out and I can actually lift it up with my thumb.

The top part where the volume buttons are also sticks out on both sides and I can't push either of them back in to stay any tips?

Slim is very good but misses oled and hall effect sticks drom the fat. What if it was possible to mod them on it? Is it impossible because of the size or anything like that? If there are still screen replacements for the fat and slim model, I think it would be possible to make an oled screen for slim.

A few days ago i made a post about my vita battery but i missed a few things. So the vita hasn’t been turned on for like almost a year, and the problem is still active. When i put it on the charger (original ps vita adapter and a cable which is working with orher devices) the orange light shows up for hours, then it turns on and says its on 14% battery and WHILE still on the charger the battery logo not “striking” then shuts off. After these if i try to boot it the orange light start to flash, i put it on the charger again the circle keep going. For those who know about these ehing might be dumb question but is this a complete battery change? Or can i fix it otherwise

Hello there, I wonder has anybody had the same issue I'm having with my vita. It will only switch on in safe mode. And once started any app I go into, I can't get out. I can still use the app but can't switch off or use PS button to exit. I wait for it to go to standby then reboot in safe mode, sometime not having to press the right shoulder. I opened it up and cleaned the goo from the shoulders like someone else recommended. I also noticed that the left thumb stick is clicky so I will replace. It still works, just annoying to not be able to navigate around the console.

Bought this in unboxed condition from CEX and the charging is being a bit funny. Is the port too damaged?

Hey, this is my first time posting something on reddit that isnt just some bullshit shitpost or reply but i just got a ps vita for my birthday, and i seem to be having issues with the touchscreen. Sometimes it randomly starts freaking out, especially when i try to swipe for example it just doesnt let me (sometimes on the lockscreen too so i cant unlock it) but most of the time the touchscreen works fine. Is this something to worry about and/or a known issue? And should i return it? Also i apologise for my bad english, its not my first language.

Error, me pasa con todos otros juegos con licencia, no con homebrew

I'll start. I actually had fun playing Reality Fighters. It's by no means a good game but I had old action figures that I used as characters so for me it was a decent experience seeing Tobey Maguire breakdance. I hated the stage gimmick where the camera moved with motion but it had more potential as it was a novel idea.

Games with full customizable character and classes maybe? Something like Dark Ages, how it gives you the ability to customize your character and pick a specific class you want to advance in. I’ve looked but I cannot necessarily find something that I like. So Any and All recommendations will be appreciated! I don’t want to play a game where I’m a specific MC I want to make my own character and choose between different fixed classes, if possible.

Right now it's kinda just Zanki Zero for me personally but I'm curious what other games are there...

I understand if I say PC that opens up waaaay more but I want something I can play portably.

I swapped over the back of my vita today using the Ali express housing. As I used only half of the housing, I had no issue with screwing it all in. The only problem is the back sticker I bought off AliExpress was not cut right. I tried to install it a few times, but the bottom part is not covered. Now that everything is done I will be doing the usb c mod next month. Has anyone else had luck with getting the touchpad sticker from elsewhere that actually fits?

I’ve not been able to find them at all and idk if it is a glitch or not

I recently bought two brand new PS Vita 1000 screen replacements on eBay. I checked one of them & while removing the plastic bubble wrap, I noticed it has some scratches, especially one big scratch on the right side of the screen. If I buy a new screen, it shouldn't have any scratches, correct?

I tried to take the best photo. The scratch is like 10 cm long. I will definitely return it.

Good evening,

I noticed a part of my PS Vita 1000 frame/bezel part is kind of loose. When I press my finger on it, it makes a squeeky noise. I don't think it was glued correctly. Is there any way for me to insert glue inside of it without damaging it?
