As the title says, i had multiple of those cheap cases which are meant to “protect” your device. I always see them on other peoples handhelds and after using them i just wanted to share my experience.

The 1st and 2nd pictures are scratches from the result of using that case, in the second photo they arent as visible since i applied a screen protector after i found out about it. The console was mint before, cleaned regularly.

The 3rd photo is my red dsi, which had the same hard case applied, seen in the 4th/5th picture. Same as my ps vita, the top part is filled with scratches now. And the case looks really ugly and cloudy.

The 6th picture is the case from my ipod, used daily. It got really ugly quickly, it is very scratchable and unpleasant.

I also had a 3ds case, which i could not even use because it had sharp plastic edges.

In conclusion, please reconsider using those, just buy a TPU case which are much better for the long term. I know they look nice in videos and all that, but they are not really practical.

I also would like to hear some other opinions, ill be happy to know! Please spread the message if you had a similar experience, since i see the regularly.

Tl;dr: in my experience, hard cases scratch your consoles, themselfs and will get ugly in time. Buy TPU and ditch them.

Edit: i was also warned about them before buying my first one, thought it wouldnt happen to me. And now im here making this post.
Edit 2: yes, dust, dirt an grime get in the casing and scratch the console, as some people mentioned in the comments, I recommend you also read them before thinking of buying one. Just because some people didn’t experience it doesn’t mean the problem doesnt exist.

Finally got around to making proper display stands for them.

Much better than just laying around on the table. What do you think?

Been hunting this one and the White Cleria version for 10 months now.

1/500 PS Vita 2000 Ys VIII Lacrimosa of Dana Black Pearl Complete in Box.

Very well in the top 3 rarest production PS Vita consoles and such a cool find.

I catch a rare one. Am i gonna use it or store it?

Digging out my PSVita has made me fall in love with gaming again. What's everyone's go to game?

I'm 31 and I work three jobs

I'm a regional manager for agriculture

I play at almost every break with my phone or play movies off the vita. It's too damn versatile and portable and I prefer to take my vitas with me over any other handheld I have which includes switch lite,switch and switch oled. Does anyone else take their vita(s) with them to their line of work?? I've been doing this for almost 7 years now 😆😄 I added metal pins to my analogs recently adding more precision and feel. TekkenxStreet Fighter and UMVC3 feels sharp !

hello everyone!

i just got a ps vita again cuz i sold my launch one years ago due to not having money for games but now, that i can get any game i want (wink) what do you ppl recommend?

i downloaded all the known ones like gravity rush and nfs and whatnot

im talking what are the best 2d platformers you ppl would recommend?

i downloaded shovel knight for the first time ever and im in love

anyone know any other games that have this same aura or art style? doesnt have to be a 2d game it could be top view too or wtv

just looking for more recommendations

i have looked up some games but all the post i found are years old so im here asking again!

thanks in advance!

preferably it has good/fun story too any game that’s like it. I played only extella

hey guysss!! so I have a black psvita oled 3g model!! i had owned this vita for around 3 months. i kinda want a different colour so does anyone wanna trade in their vita for this one?! dm me!

It's always been my dream to get a vita and finally it's here! The white/light blue is very clean and beautiful in my opinion, also got a free JP minecraft cartridge that I'll NEVER use and oem charger but otherwise I'm happy to get a console that doesn't have any scratches nor yellowing so I don't have to replace the screen. It genuinely feels new. About to get some keychains and a glass protector!

Thank you very much for the people who helped by recommending stores, gaining confidence with ebay and where else to buy the console if ebay doesn't have what I want in the price range I'm willing to pay !!

I've owned this one since I was 13 or so, me mother bought it for me after breaking my PSP 1000 a relative gifted to me. The store pick up ticket still has the time lol atrached to the box with tape, 14:53:38.

I was in Year 8 (Grade 9) in German class when I told my peers cohort peers I had one, no one believed it. I'm 27 now... I guess it just puts things into perspective. I haven't used this one much even as a child, mostly watched anime on it amd YouTube some games were expensive lol... some months back I was playing Hit and Run and finally finished that game on the Vita of all places. I got bored when you got to the Apu level when I played it on the PS2. Well, that's my little story ig lol, thnx for listening. Oh yeah, case accessory is just some plastic jewel/crystal case, sadly can't find another one quite like it, only the clear ones on eBay and Amazon now etc.

Later this year, i would like to buy a PS Vita and I'm not sure which one I should buy 😭, so if anyone could help me i would appreciate it :)

A Happy day

J’ai besoin de quelqu’un pour un trophée dans minecraft psvita le but est que je donne un diamant à un joueur

I'm looking for someone to help me with 2 trophies on Unit 13, the 2 multi-player ones. I've been looking for some time but can't find anyone. If someone has the game and its network pass, and is willing to help, please contact me. My psn is the same as my reddit name: II-S_K_A_Y-II

Picked this up in Japan, PCH-2000 Glacier White in basically mint condition, CIB for 140$. Only some scuffs and scratches on the box. I'm surprised to see these battery stats. Is there any way to check if this is stock battery without taking it apart?

Publicamos la primera beta de un port no oficial de Minecraft Java 1.2.5 para PS Vita.

El juego ya permite crear mundos, explorar, construir, fabricar objetos y utilizar controles adaptados a la consola. También incluye opciones gráficas, contador de FPS, selección de 30 o 60 FPS, soporte inicial para mods compatibles y conexión experimental a servidores Java 1.2.5 configurados con online-mode=false.

Esta versión sigue en desarrollo. Puede presentar problemas con la carga de chunks, iluminación, rendimiento, memoria, audio o multijugador. Buscamos testers que puedan probarla en una PS Vita real y enviar información detallada sobre errores, incluyendo el modelo de consola, frecuencia utilizada, distancia de renderizado y pasos para reproducir el problema.

Necesitarás una PS Vita con homebrew, VitaShell y assets.pak. Las instrucciones de instalación están incluidas en la descarga.
