A Day With PlayStation trailer


Sony PSP Vita 2000

Quote:Sony have just announced a new model of the PS Vita at their pre-TGS conference. While there’s no RAM changes as expected, the system has had a bit of a cosmetic makeover – it’s less shiny, with six new colours. It’ll be named the PCH-2000.

It’s also 20% thinner and 15% lighter, which is very impressive for what the system has achieved through Killzone: Mercenary recently. The new colours look good, too, with lime green, light blue, pink, white, beige and black all being available.

It’ll even have a longer battery life, allowing for around an hour more of gameplay, and it’ll charge via a standard micro USB port rather than the Vita’s strange connection. This will come at a cost, however, with Sony ditching the OLED screen in favour of LCD.

It comes with a 1GB memory card bundled in, but for those looking for much more space, Sony are introducing new 64GB memory cards along with the system on the 10th of October.

This is all just for Japan and Asia now, but we hope that they’ll come to the West soon. As for price, we’re talking 19,929 yen for the new Vita and 9,980 yen for the memory card.

About:

Quote:Sony have just surprised us all by revealing PlayStation Vita TV, a 6cm by 10cm (tiny) device which allows you to watch video and network services or even play Vita and PSP games on your TV, controlled by a DualShock 3.

It appears to be a small console which is powered by the same stuff as the Vita, and includes an HDMI port for hooking up to your TV. There’ll be 1300 titles available

The system also works as a companion device, which allows you to play PS4 games in another room without the need for a second console. That’s amazing.

It’ll be available in Japan on November 14th and will cost 9,945 yen or 14,994 yen with tax for a bundle including a controller and an 8GB memory card.

So, that’s about £70 for a device that allows you to play Vita games on your TV, or PS4 games in another room, as well as a plethora of TV and video content. I’m in.[

-There will be a system software update to patch in DualShock 4 support.
-It can connect to other PS Vitas via ad hoc mode.
-Two DualShock 3 controllers can be paired to the system, allowing for playing PS1 titles.
-PS Vita can be used as a controller for some Wii U like functionality.
-Will support “nasne”, a networked recorder and media storage device.

Vita TV has my endorsement of "Still better than Ouya"!

Seriously, people rag on the Wii U a lot but the Vita just takes the cake. No matter what they do or how hard I try to like it, I just have no interest in it.

Pretty much this. I want to own a Vita and Wii U because I love to play games...but they don't really offer that much at the moment. There's the odd few games like Wonderful 101, Gravity Rush, Pikmin, Ragnarok Odyseey etc but that's hardly worth buying for a small amount games.
I love the idea of Vita TV but still...meh.

To be fair the Wii U is far more appealing to me purely because it actually has something to look out for. Smash, DKCR2, Mario Kart 8 and Sonic Lost World all look fantastic (Super Mario 3D World... Ehhh, not too interested.) while Vita has no games that really catch my eye for the foreseeable future.

At least I'm not the only one who has an interest in Ragnarok Odyssey. I might make a post sometime elaborating on why the fact games like that are shunned in the west irk me a tad.
