I'm torn my vita bros. I'm thinking of importing Final Fantasy X/X-2 vita because the US date seems so far away (March for ps3, no mention of vita date ). That or getting bravely default for the 3ds which demo I didn't like, art style that doesn't appeal to me, but people are raving about it(I wonder if it's because it's an exclusive).

Are there any vita bros who like final Fantasy X, own a 3ds and have played Bravely default ? if there is, what would be your choice ?

well I know Im not allowed to answer this, FFX is the greatest game of all time

I asked a question earlier, if you want one of the biggest news of the past six month about PS vita you should answer it.

The thing is we really don't know if Sony cares enough for playstation mobile to try and bring android apps to it, nor that developers care for it. I think there were some sales data from some of the playstation mobile apps a while back and the sales weren't good at all.

What is the android app you're teasing ?


Ok, enough with the teasing : 

People can I get your attention for some seconds ? Believe me it would be worth it. And be sure to read it all.

So, you probably don't know DraStic do you ? No of course you don't. DraStic is a wonderful android app. Not only what it does, it does it the best, but it also does it the best it can do. What does this shit do ? It's a perfect emulator for DS games. And when I mean perfect, i really mean perfect. You all know I don't give compliment easily huh =P. That shit runs everything fine (except heavy 3D games, but none of them are good one, not even correct one), even on my poor Xperia E. Plus, it's simple to use, intuitive and very complete.  

Don't believe me ? Try it for free from google play, you'll be blown I swear it to you. 

But you are in love with the vita, so who care about an android app ? But, since it's just a small app and since the vita is way more powerful than the app need and since playstation mobile allow programmers to port android and mobile shit to vita, it would be damn abracadabra possible to port it up to vita. And it could be done very fast. 

Playing the ds games on Ps vita ? It's possible, a very very very likely "possibility" and a very cool one. All we need is the DraStic guy know that we would all be glad to have their emulator on the ps vita. 

Voilà, I thought it would be cool if I shared my discover with you. 

Merci de votre attention. 

Like NEM said is not possible without issues... the other problem is obtaining the Roms, even if You download them directly from the app's servers to the Vita I don't see possible the app accessing to the folders of the Vita without the required keys.. These type of apps usually requires rooting on the phone to properly access to everywhere on the phone...

 

So sorry to shatter your dream, is not possible unless the Vita is hacked and modded.. go and buy a DS...

Really?? You had so much time thinking over this and this is what you come up with?

A 3rd party app to play Nintendo games on a PS console. Because Sony and Nintendo would absolutely approve of this. I am no less than shocked by the lack of basic common sense in this proposal.

If you genuinely believed that this would be possible and are not a troll I might be willing to elaborate on the many things why this is not even remotely possible but right now I'm still in shock.

There are tons of emulators in Google Play (and in the Cydia store on jailbroken iOS-devices). Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, Apple and Amazon don't want them in their official stores (at least not the ones where you can bring your own ROMs)... and why would they? They want to sell content... not a one time sale of an emulator and after that the user plays his "free" ROMs instead of buying other games for the device.

Why do you think, the situation is different for DraStic than for all the other emulators or other homebrew out there?

Don't need a DS since DraStic can play them perfect on my smartphone. It's the whole point of it you know... to don't need to buy a DS. 

 

"A 3rd party app to play Nintendo games on a PS console. Because Sony and Nintendo would absolutely approve of this. I am no less than shocked by the lack of basic common sense in this proposal."

Well yes, Sony don't care at all. You can play it on xperia mobile, why would they care about it on PS vita ? 

Plus, I was speaking about ps mobile, but if it happens that DraStic can run perfect on the psp emulator of the ps vita, well then... No need to ask for Sony approuval you can put it on the psp without even break the os system or the psp emulator, exactly the same way you can put a nes emulator without barely touching anything. All we need actually is someone to convert DraStic into something compatible with a handheld device and then we can speak about how to implement it on Vita. The first step is the more complex, rest is cake. 



In fairness to Sleepyprince his basic idea isn't too bad, I think he just picked the wrong app. What would be genuinely helpful to Vita would be high quality ports of some of the better Android games, in particular things like the recent DQ ports, but also lots of other smaller mobile games (even Candy Crush etc.)

The former gives you more content to appeal to the hardcore, whilst if you get enough of the latter, you can market Vita to less hardcore users as a device capable of most of the commonly used features of tablets, e.g. internet browsing, watching videos, little mobile games, but which has a large range of more fully featured, more impressive games, all for the same price as other tablets with much less impressive gaming capabilities

That way instead of Vita being harmed by tablets, it may actually be able to ride their wave of popularity without losing the features of a dedicated handheld which made us buy it in the first place

EDIT: It may require certain OS improvements, perhaps upgrades to the internet browser and youtube apps, and greater implemation of features like Netflix, but I think this shouldn't be too hard to achieve



Since you seem genuinely confused I will elaborate.

You are comparing 2 completely different things here. Android is a free platform. Sony has noithing to do with this other than putting it on their hardware. Apps for Android are approved by Google only with no say for Sony whatsoever. Vita on the other hand is Sony's property and as such monitored by them. There are only a handful of apps on the Vita and all of them are Sony approved. Apps have to be Sony approved and they won't let an emulator on it due to technical, economic and legal reasons.

Secondly you need roms for the emulator. Where will you get those roms? Definitely not from a Nintendo approved channel. Therefore all of the roms aqcuired are illegal. Nintendo is one of the most strict publishers in this world when it comes to their content. They have to have full control over everything or else they will sue.

Now you tell me why anyone would even start to try getting an app out on the vita which is borderline illegal and hurtful to both companies involved?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Drastic should be more interessting for the psp-phone(Xperia-play) where you have buttons and a d-pad .
