Sometimes I wish the PSP was Sony's flagship handheld indefinitely just to see how much power could still be squeezed out of it.

It would still sell better than Vita probably too.

it's still more powerful than the 3ds tho

It actually lived a lot longer in nipland compared to any other region

Until like what?
2012 right?

I still use mine.

Bless the PSP. I have never seen so much perfection fit into my hands liek that.

>tfw the hacking and homebrew scene will never be back
>tfw no console or device will ever have the same community that the PSP did

An updated PSP with new hardware would murder the vita

Not really. It was definitely beefier than the DS though by a large margin.

Even more insulting is the fact that PSP hardware is basically retooled PS1 hardware, which is part of why it can natively run PS1 software

This comment is fucking retarded.
The Vita is an updated psp with new hardware dipshit.

Too bad it doesn't have games

i do like the psp for a lot of reasons but it's kind of a pile of shit
it's good at playing.. well, psp games and it's a mean emulator for some old stuff but it's hardly a revolutionary handheld
The GBA, DS and 3DS all surpass it in terms of having actual good games

The latest update came out in 2015.

the only thing they have in common is that they both use a MIPS CPU.

I used mine regularly up until the analog kaput. I use my Vita almost exclusively to play ports of old console titles like MGS and FF. Its great

>3DS
lol

>a handheld device
>built in 2005
>having the ability to play games from a home console built just at a decade before it was built
>first time this has happened

Are you serious m8

>I will never again fight against a friend in PSP Dissidia
>I will never again relive those glory days of flashing and homebrews
Jesus Christ PS4 doesn't come close to PSP glory days.

>Manly tears during Crisis Core ending
>Monster Hunter Co op
>Peace Walker Heaven's Divide mission
>Fucking Dissidia
>Literally Kingdom Hearts on your way to school

hold me

>Manly tears during Crisis Core ending
that shit will never feel right coming from VII and watching Zack die like a dog

>Final fantasy X manly tears all over
>God Eater coop
>MGS 2+3, reliving peace walker
>Fucking dissidia 012
>All on the way to uni

But user, the Vita has all that and better.

I'll go ahead and ask this here since there's some Vita bros around:

What are some good character-action games for the Vita?

>implying you can find anyone to co-op with on Vita

Struggling to work out what you mean by character action user

ninja gaiden I guess?

>character action
DMC/Bayo/MGR:R
basically lots of combos, aerials, and general cuh-raz-eeee-ness

pls. anyone?

Odin Sphere Remake, Muramasa. Ninja Gaiden Sigma+.
God of War Collection

That was actually an old update. From what I remember Japan had 6. whatever update years before NA/EU got it.

Bit confused, Vita and PSP can do adhoc together

>Reminding me that I could have had awesome times in MHFU but instead I was 100% a Nintenbaby

I should have snapped it up on a whim years ago when I first had it

Uh Senran Kagura....One Piece uh..Dynasty Warriors...Ninja Gaiden...
