The exploit states that you need a exploitable game, so even if Sony does patch it, you only need the exploitable game right?

Yes, but I think there is no trivial way to download now and install and run a PSP game later (at least on an umodded consumer console, with no access to the official package installer)

As far as I know it doesn't have any internal storage, so I need to buy a memory stick to install PSP games, right?

You need a Vita memory card (M3), which isn't compatible the original full size memory stick, the PSP's Duo, or the Go's M2

Once modded you can use an sd2vita (occupies the original game slot) or a psvsd (replaces the internal modem)

Sorry, I meant to say "memory card". I've ordered this one:

If the drivers are installed permanently, I might sell it when I'm done.

The plugin would only be active while the hack was running, it won't work without the exploit running. Assuming it's not a persistent hack like Enso (which it isn't AFAIK), then you would still need your memory card to run the hack any time you reboot your system.

I would suggest keeping it, just in case to have a backup if something ever goes wrong.

Modoru should work on 3.70, so downgrading to 3.60/3.65 should be possible anyway.

While I don't disagree at all with the background idea, not only imcunlock can be done to it once modded...
...but you're assuming the card won't spontanously break in the meanwhile!

This is true, I forgot imcunlock existed

But yeah, keeping a card as backup is still a good idea regardless.

Thanks for the link, but unfortunately there's no way to jailbreak past 3.60 without a memory card, and of course the SD2VITA doesn't work without the custom driver.
I was hoping I could install a PSP demo without a memory stick and then use this new 3.70 exploit to install the SD2VITA driver.

At least the 4 gb cards are cheap, you can get them used for a few bucks. Then once you jailbreak your Vita you should be able to use SD2VITA. For now just get a used 4 gb vita card.

Well then

I ordered the cheapest PS Vita memory card I could find, but it cost me €17.99 (4 GB, used). I could've bought a new 64 GB microSD card with that money!
I think they're getting harder to find since Sony ended production.

There were already way too expensive at launch. My 64GB Sony memcard did cost me like 100€. Really damn insane!!

And now you could probably sell it by 150€ or even more.

Some used vitas are sold with the 4 gb card included but rarely on the Fat model.

You sure? Here I'm trying to sell a never-used oled vita with 32gb sony memcard and some fucking idiot offered me 80€. Yeah, like I'm stupid... Maybe I should sell it on ebay

I meant online sales. I have seen the Vita cards for cheap but I have also seen them quite expensive. Not trusting the too cheap ones.

KuroTheBang · Apr 5, 2019

So....

is

Ape Quest Starter Pack (EUR)

also good?

I wonder if this does get patched will there be any other way to do it?

If Sony pull all the exploitable games and then put out a firmware update before bringing them back then it's likely to be the end of the exploit. But there might be more exploits & there is no guarantee that Sony cares.

If you have a vita already then don't worry about it, if you don't then get one quick.

Also to the guy complaining that 6-8 weeks is not long enough? how much bloody time do you expect to get ready? it literally takes 5 mins to download the PSN demo.

I assume they don't have a vita and are trying to find a cheap one that isn't smashed

In this case, Sony can't pull the exploitable games because the exploit is with the pspemu itself, so all PSP games will work and would have to be pulled to prevent use of the exploit.

But, as The Flow mentioned, it can be easily fixed with an update, so yeah they just have to release a patch and stop 3.70 from being able to access the store.

duwen · Apr 20, 2019

Well, I'm all set! Just picked up a pstv on 3.70 from CEX for 45 quid, linked my psn and downloaded Ape Quest.
I still need to fix my pc and get qcma sorted (not just for my pstv, but mainly for fixing the hack on my oled vita that I screwed up with the hencore update a couple of months ago - overwrote the .dat without setting permissions, and now hencore just launches Bitter Smile)

You can get an unused Vita Fat with firmware 3.63 by 150 to 200 bucks. If it has a firmware over that is likely one of the newest Vita models or used. Of course shipping costs might be a problem. And the same with time of delivery.

I got mine used because It has firmware 3.65 (Is not hacked with Enzo yet) and included a game plus a 4 gb memory card.

Too expensive. I've seen some reasonable second hand units in the 90 dollar range. Hopefully these will be downgradable to get enso....

Right, they could do that as soon as the exploit is released. As the console is end of life then it wouldn't impact them much. Or they could at least pull the free ones, so you have to give them some money.

I really can't decide about whether to get a PSTV as well as a Vita. In reality there is probably only one game I'll end up playing on it (which is why I've been so lax in buying a Vita in the first place) and it's not playable on PSTV even once it's hacked. But I do seem to collect PlayStation consoles

Make sure to ask the seller before purchasing it. From my experience all of the sellers I asked, they are on 3.70 and then they keep saying bullshit like "it's been a very long time ago since I used it and it's collecting dust" Like, who are you trying to kid lol
