Should I buy a PS Vita, or a PSP? Thinking about getting another retro console and I'm not sure which one to get.

You can get a mint condition Japanese PSP-1000 for about a quarter of the price of a Vita! If you solder in a 5000-6000 mah battery you can get some 14+ hours of gameplay between charges! You can also fit a ton of games on a cheap 64-128gb microsd with a $3 adapter, and adding a USB-C port so it charges with the same cable as everything else is pretty easy!

I remember being a kid and wanting one of these SOOOOO bad. Never got to experience it! Steamdeck has filled that lost time for me!

Man, I used to have PSP back in the day, and I loved it.

And now, I am kinda pondering, on buying a PS Vita, for some emulation. And I think I sure will do that. Just.. gotta get money first..

It's the one device where it's a joy to use the dpad. After using it I'm still trying to find one that comes close to how good the dpad functions.

Yup! I loved my PS Vita but was going through some money issues so sold it. I wish I never did or had to. :(

I STILL want one of these so bad. Wish they weren't so expensive as I just cannot justify spending so much on such an outdated piece of tech :(

Nice do you play minecraft on vita by any chance?

I thought about getting one, but now I got the Gamesir X2 Pro for my phone and I don't see how a real Vita could give me any advantages over my current setup. I love this controller!

I remember playing Lego games on one of these when I was younger. Absolutely legendary console

Sold mine earlier this year because I needed the money for rent. I loved that thing, I miss it all the time. It was my Persona and SMT machine, so many hours...

Had to sell my LCD monitor once to make rent... I loved that monitor, had researched it and bought it specifically. 🙁

Hang in there, things will be looking up before you know it.

Funny, I had one of these in my hands the other day and was quite impressed!
