If you look at where the X O Square Triangle buttons are, do you see something behind the seams?

I see something there that almost looks like another camera. I don't really mind but it strikes me as somewhat odd that Sony designed the Vita this way that you can see right through the seams into the inside of the console.

The left side of the system doesn't have this problem, or at the very least Sony didn't put anything there to look at. Just thought I'd double check whether this is normal for the Vita 1000 or whether something in my Vita fell out of place.

Picture included to show what I mean. The red line indicates the slight gap where I can see through. In stock photos of the Vita, nothing can be seen there, but I can see something on mine.

Okay, when I look at the dpad, the seam is perfectly closed. So this means the gap I am talking about isn't supposed to be there. It must be the result of wear and tear. Weird, the system looked like it was in such good shape. No scratches, etc. Instead it suffers from structural integrity issues.

its hard to get a picture that shows it.. basically there is a gap there but its really narrow.

    @Veho, You have 3ds, you play CTGP7 I hope, it really cool
  • Veho @ Veho:
    My 3DS is on permanent loan to my brother. Maybe some day.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or on Switch there's CTGP8 but you need a modded Switch. Adds tons of features and tracks.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I have the Wii in a closet somewhere, I keep wanting to set it up and play some Mario Kart there but it doesn't seem to happen.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Really only game I play on the switch anymore tbh
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    $50 extra for a mario kart bundle isn't that bad
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea true
  • Veho @ Veho:
    You mean with Switch 2?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But tough coughing up $450 for a Switch pro basically. For $50 can get a MIG, or get a v1 switch for few hundo and go hogwild.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I'll probably wait tell next year to give it time for stuff to be released
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Seeing how I don't have the first Switch yet I think I'll wait until, well, forever to buy the next one.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    $450 is just a teeny tiny bit insane for my taste.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh I thought you had a switch 1/ Lite. But yeah think imma wait till modchips come. If I make that move.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nah, the most recent console I own
    is the 3DS (and I don't even have it at the moment).
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Technically the Anbernic rg35xx SP is the newest console I own but since it can only run up to PSX games it doesn't count as new :tpi:
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You gotta get it back n put that CTGP7 on it if you MK fan, its fun. I still play my 3ds in bed playing that.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I really should.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's got CFW and everything.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    It uses the MK ROM but adds bunch tracks n features to the game.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Is that fucking Sonic?

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yup bunch dif char too
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Cool.
    Veho @ Veho: Cool.
