Been using my PS Vita as my portable emulation machine for a while now. Super easy to mod with the added bonus of being able to play Vita games.

I always recommend to anyone who wants a handheld to go for a Vita, even if you don't emulate anything other than PSP and PS1 that gives you access to thousands and thousands of games. Add onto that the fact it's past end of life, it's nearly a moral responsibility to mod it.

That said I also have a modded 3ds. I have modded my ps1, ps2 and ps3. I've modded my OG XBOX and 360.

All aboard the mod train....CHOO CHOOOOOOOO!

How much are ps vitas these days? I've been really hankering for one, for the reasons you mentioned.

Idk, in the UK around £80

It'll go up eventually, possibly not too far in the future. We'll worth the cost IMHO.

1&2 were sausage finger corrections.

3 - do make sure to get yourself an SD2VITA, don't listen to the negative reviews that say "It doesn't fit, this thing is garbage...."

Those people are stupid, it goes in the game slot, not the expanded memory slot.

Oh for sure! Gotta remember to play the games as well after all that modding lol

Lmfao! Too true, Vita is my daily driver, I get probably 15hrs a week of gaming time on it.
