PlayStation Vita Wi-Fi model Aqua Blue

I got a vita because I wanted something to sit and play on the couch while watching TV, or laying in bed, without having to sit with a laptop or something. I had a ps plus membership for a long time so vita was the natural choice so I can play the backlog of free games I accumulated. The screen is great on this, the games are fun, if a little targeted to teenage/family audience. PS1 support is limited to the what's in the store. The color is awesome... I almost chose the orange but the blue matches my other tech stuff so it ended up working out well. Battery life is great, I get 10hrs or more between charges. The buttons are a little smaller than I expected, but the system is light and comfortable to use (except the left stick placement feels a little odd.) I haven't tried it with a grip but ps4 streaming works very well over wi-fi or local system broadcast. PS3 streaming DOES NOT WORK so don't get this to play your ps1 discs through a ps3, which sucks, I was hoping to stream a few of my old discs but there's just no way to get it working. I also had a problem where the game Tearaway is unplayable when downloaded from the ps store, which may be a memory card issue but does not affect any of the other 50+ games I installed. Support is dying a little bit for this system, and the screen is small so it can be tough on older eyes, but the product is definitely worth picking up for a bit of portable RPG fun from time to time. If I had to do it again I'd probably just go for a $150 refurbished one, the price point for how much I've actually played this was probably a little high, but no regrets! Just make sure you know exactly what you're getting into when you get this, make sure you know you can't homebrew with a newer model, and make sure you are ok with the indie/jrpg games that the system supports the best, and this is a worthwhile system.

Great product. Don't expect much in the way of accessories though.

I was very impressed with this purchase and I am very pleased to say that the system is holding up just nicely almost a year later. I bought this product BRAND NEW for a very cheap price.Firstly, I am in love with the color and feel of this system. It doesn’t attract fingerprints easily and it is comfortable to hold after long hours of play. The battery life is also very sufficient as I can play a game constantly without it draining my battery too much and having to grab the charger.My system came with a charger that fit the US outlets despite it being a Japanese model. You should contact your seller if you are unsure, but I am fairly sure that they will replace it for you since it is labeled an IMPORT system.The PS VITA is not region locked so you can play games from any region as long as it is a physical cartridge. No need to worry about it not playing American games because I have 4 of them working just fine!The buttons X and O are swapped to work the opposite functions as to that of a US controller but you can swap this in the settings if you like. Personally, I didn’t do that because the US games will have you play it with the same functions you are used to in specific region games.Unlike the Nintendo Switch, you can only have one account logged in at a time. Based on your region settings, you will only be able to access the store with your country’s code. That means if you have a Japanese account, you can only access the Japanese store and buy digital Japanese games. If you buy an SD card, note that only one account can be attached to those as well. I recommend starting with 16 or 32 GB and buying physical cartridges since it saves a lot more space.If you are used to a Nintendo DS, The VITA is similar because it allows you to purchase themes on the store and arrange the icons to your liking. If you don’t want to purchase a theme, you can just change the color or download a picture.CAMERA quality isn’t that great, but it is expected from an older product. I doubt you will use this function much anyways. Good news is that a majority of games don’t require you to use it.

Home button doesn’t work and the joystick has drift

In the product reviews if the product was great and up to your expectations shout out the store you bought it from as it helps other people to choose what to buy and from who. It would definitely help me and other people having to avoid searching endless for a purchase we want to make. With that saidI bought my used PsVita from FF Store Cams.After searching high and low on what PSVita to buy from who I decided to go with Aqua Blue. I feel like it is so important to not get cheated on a purchase. (Buy a new or used one in "good condition and end up getting one all beat up or in not working condition.) This PsVita looks good and may as well be new. Yes there is a scratch on the back but you have to look very close to see it.It works just like my other Black US PsVita does and I've had no trouble with it I've had it for almost a month now and love it! So again shout out to FF Store Cams for selling me this used one that looks new for cheaper than what a new one would be.

I ordered this vita not knowing what to expect. Opened the box and it was well protected in bubble wrap as well as the charger. The vita looks brand new! Just a heads up the Asia psvita systems have the x and o buttons swapped in the home screen.
