Hi, just got a white OLED fat vita on 2.01 firmware, wondering if I should mod it to play PSP games (Used to have a PSP 3000 & GO W/CFW).

My main question is what can I do with the vita, I am unfamiliar with whats possible with certain firmwares etc.

What are the advantages and disadvantages like not being able to use remote play etc.

Cheers!

If you update it to 3.18 firmware you can:

- run PSP eCFW 6.60
- Play PSP ISO's
- Play PS1 ISO's
- Play all the 16bit and under emulators, nes, snes etc
- Have access to the webkit exploit (in development) before it got patched in the firmware after 3.18
- Install Custom vita bubbles on the dash to give direct execution to psp iso's and other plugins
- Use FTP from your pc to drag and drop roms/ISO's

you will lose:

- Access to the vita psn store to buy games
- There is no emunand style software so you are on 3.18

Ive probably missed something but hey you get the idea.

Is there a safe place to get ISO's for my vita?

Theres no way to update to 3.18 unless I was on 3.18 right? So I can either stay on 2.01 or update to the latest right?

No, you can update to ANY firmware you wish aslong as you are going higher, you cannot go lower (downgrade) see my thread i made on how to upgrade to 3.18 and hack it to get psp eCFW :)

Thanks for the replies, IDK if I want to update cause my main intention is to use it for remote play, but atm my wifi sucks (Staying with my grandma) probably wont be moving in with my parents till mid this year so I might mod it to play psp games since I cant really use it for remote play while on the go, plus I dont want to waste the modding factor since its technically still alive and could be modded. Theres no way to spoof the firmware like ps3 or is that what everyones waiting for (Staying on 3.18 for?)

    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @salazarcosplay if they made a prequel, it would still be about current issues, cause it doesn't make sense to make it about stuff that happened 30 years ago that nobody cares about anymore
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's too late
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the older south park episodes about particular issues usually age poorly since the topic is no longer relevant
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    an exception is giant douche vs turd sandwich, that's always relevant :P
