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.

    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
