Yea, I tried remote play with mine, but unfortunately that was limited to PS minis,PS1 games (both of which can be played on the PSV itself anyway) and Pixeljunk's PSN games. They should offer remote play with every game stored on/inserted in the PS4 to make that a real feature.


What's it like owning one? Does it feel worth the price? I'm really tempted, especially as I'm building up a game library with PS+. I feel like I should wait untl PS4 in case there are bundles or a hardware refresh. It's this, plus wanting to see the remote play with PS4, that is stopping me right now more than the price.

Yes, as I already wrote in this thread I had a blast with Gravity Rush (got me hooked enough to platinum it, which I usually don't do) and LBP Vita was outright the best LBP I've played. Additionally Big Sky Infinite and Tales of a Mutant Blob were nice experiences and because it can play PS minis and PS1 games I finally played some of those I got from PS+ month (or years) ago. "Where is my heart" for instance is an amazing puzzle jump and run.

As you can see I mainly got it because I already had games from PS+ for the system and at the 200€ I payed for the 3G version + LBP Vita + 4GB mem card I think it was totally worth it.

The system itself runs very smoothly and feels great, the screen is extremely beautiful, just compared to a real tablet it's functionality is pretty limited (youtube works great; the browser is pretty slow, but scrolling with the backtouch pad is a good feature). I think they should have made the PSV able to boot into android and it should have come with a real TV out in my opinion..

Maybe they will change this with a hardware refresh and if they do I'll probably feel a bit cheated ;).
