Being honest here, no vita memory card can even hold 500 games so for the limit to exist is questionable, sure is unnecessary cause no one can get 500 on any memory card unless somehow games are super compressed, but then again, sony never expected external HDD to be thing for vita, nor did they make bigger cards than 64, i have 64GB card and didn't even fill up to 100 games on my 3ds, i have 1TB HDD for wii u and didn't even reach 100 games, why would anyone want to stock so much games especially when not even 40% of them are that good, on any system? I guess digital game collections are a thing now? :unsure:

Taking into consideration expanse of memory in the past it's no surprise to hold an entire collection of games.

1.4 mb used to be huge now we can literally hold every SNES game without flinching.

Plus there's new types of storage well in development putting thousands of terabytes to shame.
Quartz

And thus in the future there'll be data repositories past our farthest imaginations.

Also incomplete dump explain why we are missing soo many games look like I am not putting my vita down for a while I started cover ops nuclear dawn 4 days ago and got hook up again whit PSX games
The Vita scene started way later in its life than the 3DS scene, we're literally not even a year into having Henkaku whereas the 3DS has been hacked for a few years now.

The Vita also has, IMO, way better security than the 3DS does so it's "harder" to get every single piece of software the Vita has without some hiccups. Using current methods to dump games is still "experimental", in that not everything is going to work 100%, and until someone figures out a better way to dump games (which, IMO, is unlikely for at least a while) it's going to stay that way.

I know I had a 3ds for several year before I brought the psvita after a year of having it henhaku was released. I dont mind the waiting time for get proper dumps since right now we have acess to the mayority of ps1 game library for play

I imagine he's using a Vita TV with and external HDD, which could potentially have more than enough space for 500+ games.


Assuming we don't count multi region dumps, there's something like 700+ games dumped right now. If we do include multi region stuff, it's somewhere in the 1400s ;)
3436 games and apps in total of all regions, 1020 for only the US 😉 This number is NOT correct, though, since many games and apps are no longer available in the Play Station Store.

do you know how many TBs that total takes up or maybe all original games'?
