Quick, delete this post! Nintendo has already dispatched two elite snipers to home in on your position and dispose of you, but maybe they'll fall back if you delete this quickly enough!

I stripped the exif data from the image... that's enough right?

No, but seriously - I posted this to /r/gaming and the mods took it down in 15 minutes...

Lemme guess: Switch emulator running on PC, streamed to the Vita using Moonlight? (or a screenshot)

[-] ka1ikasan@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 month ago

Oh boy, I am so glad Nintendo franchises do not appeal to me visually so I don't have to bother with all that.

It's really not all that much of a hassle

Fake, this has physical games Switch 2 just has hardware keys

[-] dwindling7373@feddit.it 12 points 1 month ago

You got scammed that's a standard Switch.

[-] demunted@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago

His mom called, it's a Nintendo.

[-] racketlauncher831@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago

No. It's a genuine Nintendo Switch knock-off, called P Svita.

[-] dwindling7373@feddit.it 2 points 1 month ago

That's just the Saudi branding of Nintendo Switch.

I haven't used moonlight on the vita, can you map touch input to L2/R2/L3/R3? The back touch-area would probalby be good for the triggers & L3/R3 aren't used that often, so the touchscreen might work for that.

What's the latency like?

[-] _pete_@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

Honestly terrible, the Vita's WiFi chip is lousy so even with a wired PC and sitting right next to the router the lag is pretty poor.

Also the lack of additional triggers really causes problems for a game like Zelda where you're expected to use them a lot, you can use the touch pad but the lack of feedback makes it pretty unplayable.

Its a fun experiment though!

[-] ferric_carcinization@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago

If only moonlight could use the USB connection, like vitastick.

Do the triggers from bluetooth controllers work with moonlight? I don't remember if you can normally connect controllers to the vita, but there's this plugin that makes the vita think that it's a pstv, which makes it support multiple gamepads.

[-] racketlauncher831@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Damn, then what's the effing point? It's practically a mini monitor with some buttons.

Cheaper than the PS Remote Play

[-] ferric_carcinization@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

The Vita has some good games, and it has built-in support for psp & ps1 games, which is not emulation IIRC. It can be a nice portable emulation machine, especially the Vita 1000 model, with the OLED display. The 2000 isn't as nice due to the worse display.

Is that an unauthorized device? How dare you do that to starving indie developers...
