Hacking Interested in buying a PS Vita. I want to make sure I get one with 3.60 or lower

[vladone97]

As we all know, HENKaku doesn't work on 3.61. From my understanding, the Borderlands 2 bundle comes with a very early firmware (I don't remember exactly which one). The problem is that I live in Romania and I can't find it anywhere. Does the firmware version rule apply to other bundles as well? And if yes, does anyone know what firmware version the Action Mega Pack bundle comes with?

Any vita that is new in box will have a firmware below the HENkaku deadline.

Yeah, just buy any new Vita and you'll fine.

Thanks guys. I imagined it would be too early for them to start selling Vitas with 3.61 out of the box, but I wasn't sure.

A year from now, you can buy new vita's and it will still be 3.60 or below. It's not like they're selling like hotcakes. You can still easily find 3DS's under Firmware 11.0 and they sell a lot more than Vitas. So I wouldn't worry much about it.

Indeed, any new PSV/PSTV will come with 3.60 or lower, right now. Not to mention at least the PSTV has been discontinued, so ANY PSTV that is new in box will ALWAYS have less than 3.60.

This should probably be added to a sticky post. I imagine it's a FAQ for a lot of newcomers. Something along the lines of: "As of October 16 2016 all unopened vita units are below fw 3.60"

I was always under the impression it was in the noob thread stickied at the top, however it appears @Voxel didn't add that little factoid to the OP . I've done so now, bolded and underlined it, so now anyone asking can be referred to the noob sticky.

I believe there are rules at GBATemp regarding language, that state people should talk English publicly.
