Playstation Vita and Playstation TV "jailbreak" has been released - Polidicks

Keep in mind the current emulators are fresh ports and haven't really had any time to break the system in. As you can see with the first genesis emulator and the new genesis core that runs on retroarch vita.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;50808654]Yeah, sometimes the frame rate just halves on GBA games, GBC and GB games seem to be working fine The SNES emulator works great.[/QUOTE] How do you even install the GBA emulator? I followed the link on the henkaku page and the only download available was a .velf file that the shell didn't know how to install.

[QUOTE=WhyNott;50806254]To be fair, vita has an advantage of having physical controls, and I cant really stand the touchscreen joysticks for playing gamea[/QUOTE] If only there was some kind of controller peripheral for phones... [editline]2nd August 2016[/editline] So how hardcore do they think we can get with this? Think it could handle ps2 emu?

I'm confused, I thought the Vita could already do everything homebrew the PSP could and then some?

[QUOTE=WhyNott;50805705]Do you really not see why they are doing this? Piracy on vita would easily finish off an already dying console, which is what they are trying to avoid. This is entierly different from some old consoles and games, [B]all of which arent even sold anymore[/B].[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=simkas;50806527]There's a pretty fucking huge difference between pirating recently released games and pirating games that are 20 years old that [B]aren't being sold[/B] by any real distributors anywhere and no real sales of those games would go to any of the original creators or publishers of those games.[/QUOTE] This argument does not hold. Many classic games are still being sold digitally. Virtual Console. PSOne Classics. Genesis & Mega Drive Classics on Steam. It's still piracy, whether it's old or new. Period. You're missing my actual point. My point is that it's hypocritical to act all righteous and anti-piracy about your hack when one of the first major things you parade around with your hack is...piracy. It doesn't matter if it isn't harming the Vita's own library, it's still bringing a form of piracy to the Vita that developers and Sony are [I]not[/I] going to like. I wouldn't care if they just owned up to it and told it like it is instead of pretending to be more righteous than other hackers. And by the way, this is coming from someone who appreciates these kinds of hacks. I much prefer having full control over my devices. I'm REALLY glad this happened, because my PSTV is still on the correct firmware version so I can use this. But I'm not so stupid as to think this isn't a floodgate-opener for piracy and that stuffing it with emulators and downloaded ROMs doesn't fall under that definition. I personally just want to back up my physical PSP library and get them onto my PSTV, because my actual PSP is in pretty bad shape.
