Using the Steam savegame from "Binding of Isaac Rebirth" on your Vita
This is a small guide on how you can copy over a savegame from the Steam version of "Binding of Isaac: Rebirth" to your Vita.
I have been playing BoI:R on Steam for quite some time, but I recently bought a Vita and was delighted to see that BoI:R is available here, too! I have my Vita just a week now, so bear with me, if I say something stupid
-disclaimer-
The whole process is quite easy, but I must warn you, that I haven't tested this with much detail! The game loads, I can select my copied over savegame with the whole content I unlocked and I can start a game with that. I can't say, if there are any aftereffects, so please - for the love of god - backup your savegames, if you hold them dear!

Now for the fun part:
What you need:
Another thing I don't know is how or if you are awarded any trophies.
Well, have fun gaming BoI:R!

Now for the fun part:
What you need:
- A BoI Rebirth savegame on your Windows PC located in "\Users\yourname\Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Rebirth\" They are called persistentgamedataX.dat (where X is the number of your savegame). Afterbirth savegames do not work. I tried!
- A Vita with access to VitaShell
- A connection (USB or FTP) from the PC to your Vita
- Open VitaShell and copy over the savegames to your Vita (to the root of ux0:/)
- Mark the savegame(s) with the [] button and press /\ for the menu, select copy and press X
- Navigate to "ux0:/user/00/savedata/" (or to whichever user you want to copy the savegames to)
- Now comes the important part: highlight the folder "PCSE00507" and press /\ for the menu. Select "Open decryped" from the menu and press X
- You are now in the decrypted savegame folder. Here, you can press /\ for the menu, highlight "Paste" and press X. At this point you are overwriting your old Vita savegame(s)! Be careful!
- ???
- Profit!
