Does anyone know (and possibily link or send me a DM) where to find and buy some reliable and good replacement batteries and front screen for the 1000 series? I know I can find them on Aliexpress or Ebay, but I always doubt if a product is fine or not, and reviews could be bot-generated so....

I bought a PS vita from the net. Bought a charger for it, left it to charge for a while wouldn't turn on. The orange light would flash then slowly go back to being solid. Someone told me to plug it into a portable phone charger did that overnight now when I plug it in, the orange light stays on for a while then shuts off. Idk what to do now.

Wasn’t sure if question or discussion fit better as a flair

Like the title says, just wanna know if the server is still up. I don’t wanna be stuck with an incomplete trophy list (I hate how much of a perfectionist I am)

Always wanted one of these as a kid when they were released so really excited to finally get my hands on one!

What are some games that are either exclusive to Vita, or best experienced on Vita? I have already ordered:

- Uncharted Golden Abyss
- Lumines: Electronic Symphony
- Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3

I really like the look of Dissidia, but i'm not sure it's actually possible for me to get in the UK any more?

Thanks in advance, happy to join the Vita family :)

"Obtain IP" is successful, but "Internet connection" comes up as failed. I googled a solution, and someone on this subreddit 11 years ago said to try 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as DNS numbers, but when I try that it says "A DNS server cannot be used". Any ideas?

For me, probably adjust the brightness so we could make it even darker at its lowest setting so playing in the dark wouldn’t burn my eyes lol.

That and probably have the main menu music we have selected play when we’re in the trophies app. Also mix and match music with different themes.

as you can read in the title i have lost my original charger. Is there any way to charge it without the original one or am i forced to buy a new one? (Sorry if this is a stupid question i am desperate)

Title says it all for the most part, I have a 2nd hand copy of the legacy collection for MGS on ps3 and I was wondering if buying vr missions on ps vita will also give me the ps3 version

Just what title says. Is there any maintenance steps to do after swapping the battery ? Some calibration or something else ?

Just recently charged it up, when I turn it on I get a solid blue light on the PlayStation logo but a completely black screen. I looked up how to fix this however nothing is working. I tried entering recovery and safe mode however its never appears even after holding the buttons down for more than 30 seconds.

It’s unmodified and hasn’t been used in a couple years because of this issue. Any help would be great.

checked aliexpress,ebay etc and i only found ones for Slim model.

The announced closure (and subsequent cancellation) of the PS Store in 2021 is a distant memory now, and I find it fascinating that we can still browse and download on Vita, when storefronts for other more recent and/or more successful consoles have shut down.

The question is, how much longer do we have? And why is it still open? I see three possible scenarios:

1. Sony have forgotten all about it... it will live on for the foreseeable future.
2. It's still a valid revenue stream for Sony; there are enough people purchasing to keep it afloat.
3. I have doomed the PS Store by writing this post.

(As for me personally, I saw a post recommending PixelJunk Monsters, so I'm about to make a purchase...)

My vita is like lock but on the home screen i can still open it but when it opens i cant press anything and when i press the PlayStation button a prohibition symbol appears on the top left

I wanna play a LBP vita private server but my ps vita just won’t mod for some reason so is there a private server you can join with no mods?

My analog stick has a insane drift and from my country I cannot found a analog that fits in my game, and buy it is too expensive for me, someone can help me for how can i fix this or just amenize the drift

I really think if the Vita got its own exclusive God of War, Monster Hunter, and GTA titles, that would’ve helped sell consoles a LOT.

These black spots only appear when it’s a black screen(turned on), what causes this? And is it fixable?

I want to add FFX2 to my physical Vita collection but I'm not really sure how to go about fulfilling my goal. I'm in the UK and have a UK, PAL Vita2000. I have seen a few posts that mention Playasia selling copies R3 Asia copies that are compatible. I want English language and Trophy support. The parts I'm unsure about is can I save the game. A few people mentioned in other posts that saves are region locked. Then others have said the Vita's are region free. Others have said the consoles are region free but the PSN accounts aren't compatible with different regions, including trophy support. Also didn't see any prices on Playasia. Is that because I don't have account or because they no longer have it in stock. Thanks for reading 🙂

Has anyone ever tried using a bt keyboard on a ps vita? Which one did you try? I'm going to buy one but don't know if its going to be compatible or not. Thank you!

So I did a shell swap recently with the screen included and after I finished the screen won't turn on and the orange charging light won't either. Was wondering if its the screen or maybe something I did while doing it.

Haven't heard any news since the start of October?

Hi so I bought a vita the other day and every time I try to log in it tells me to generate a “device setup password”, I do this I type it in and it tells me to just make another one, over and over and over I’ve made about 20 passwords now, I have 2fa on and the WiFi test says I’m connected, I’ve even made a new account password cause I read somewhere that could help, PlayStation support just told me wait 24 hours and try again which I’ve done.

Any suggestions or insight would be greatly appreciated thanks
