Crazy how 4J Studios managed to make this port to a 2011 handheld and still have it be better than Bedrock edition is in 2023

4JStudios were the REAL developers of Minecraft. They did it better than Mojang ever could

"Because the chunks load in at the speed of a hot dog freezing, meeting twists and turns without crashing dickfirst into a wall is like an achievement." why is this channel so small, these are great

fun fact: all of the menus and the hotbar also allowed you to use the touchscreen to navigate them. so theoretically, if you mastered that, you could probably have a decent advantage over most folks playing battle mode

as someone who spent thousands of hours as a kid on the ps3 playing Minecraft, it made me cry remembering the minigames on legacy. Those were probably some of the best moments I have ever had in gaming, spent with my friends, forming bonds with random people then crying because my parents said I couldn't friend them. In all, thanks 4J for some really cool features.

something to note about the performance of the latest version is that it only got worse AFTER 1.13 was introduced (Which wasn't even supposed to be implemented). It was a fairly stable 30fps before that. Also pretty sure save transfers were removed due to servers going down; they worked by storing the worlds on a server.

Quick correction: The PSvita you show at 11:34 is the 'slim' revision model, which did not feature an OLED screen.

I hate the fact that this guy is still a small youtuber even though his videos are absolutely amazing

I remember I got a vita because I wanted to play little big planet. Not long after though it was announced that Minecraft was coming to it and I got it for Christmas. Being about to play Minecraft on the go was incredible. I even made a pretty nice creative world. The vita was such an underrated console

Your videos feel like a mix of modern formats with the humor of AVGN and his many clones back in the day. And the juxtipostion between the two just hits so good dude.

I remember when I finally got my vita one of the coolest things about it and this game was that if you had a ps3 version you got the vita version for free. Really made getting a vita worth it at the time for me since I had so many cross compatible games.

I grew up with Minecraft on the Xbox 360, seeing those hot bars, the mini games, the very tutorial world I started off on brought me back. Amazing video, thank you.

I miss the console legacy edition so much. I have so many memories of the tutorial world and the mini games that bedrock edition could never get out of me

Now Minecraft Enhanced, a modified and improved version of Minecraft for the Ps Vita has released and coupled with some other Homebrew tools to make the FPS more stable, this Portable version of the game is better than ever.

I used to rearrange the control scheme in my settings so I could use the square and circle buttons to move through my items instead of the d-pad. It was actually game-changing, and gave you the ability to play more like normal.

I grew up playing this version of minecraft. I still remember finding out i could choose a texture pack and showing my brother while he was doing homework. Also remember when i was playing the tutorial world with my uncle. Such good memories

I loved the Vita version, I played it with my friend in School using ad hoc, and we could transfer the saves back and forth to the PS3, so when we were home we'd play on PS3 and Vita when elsewhere. It was really cool.

I still play this version of this game to this day . Love it!

Minecraft on the Vita actually used to run decently back years ago, but at some point there was an update where the performance had a heavy drop

I actually lucked out with the Vita Edition. I got PS3 Edition used from GameStop a couple weeks ago, noticed the download code, and kinda immediately wrote it off as "it won't work". After watching your video, I decided to try it because [intrusive thoughts], and somehow it worked! So now I have PS Vita Edition. ;u;

This version was my childhood and how I met a friend that we sadly dont speak to much today I love it in every sense, I love how the colors are so warm and washed out, it just felt so simple and perfect

Handheld Minecraft is unique. I had an Xperia Play, the Sony phone with built in controller and being able to play anywhere was nice

I'm not gonna lie to you, this video led me to get a PS Vita, and while I've played quite a bit of Minecraft on it, it led me to play a ton of games I never even considered playing, and eventually led to me finding one my new favorite games, Persona 4. Seriously never expected to find all these amazing games when I got this thing, it's seriously one of my favorite handhelds to play on and I've found myself unable to put it down as of late. Thanks for introducing me to this console !!

I really like the quality of your videos, they make me laugh out loud. I was surprised to see you dont have more subs, and you definitely deserve more! Keep up the good work, and thank you for the entertainment!

I love your humor and the video overall was great! I remember back in my elementary school a boy had a Vita with Minecraft! He was playing in the tutorial world, and if I recall correctly he was in the area with the lone tree that was near the big Minecraft logo. Ever since I saw that, I wanted a Vita JUST to play Minecraft. Looking back on it, I think I was justified to have that thought. 10/10 video

big things are sure to come king. another great video, keep it up : )

What insane timing i J U S T watched your video on Obscure Minecraft Versions! Very good stuff my man cant wait to see more!

Underrated content creator, keep up the great work ✨

Bro this was such a trip down memory lane, like my god i remember playing this allot because i didn't buy a ps3 or 4, and i remember all the little moments here and there, i especially loved the Minigames and remember the hunger games styled one foundly, i loved the sand/pirate ship map and the elytra and snow tile minigames

Genuinely my favorite way to play Minecraft, the experience is just too nostalgic and it holds a special place in my heart.

Dude I instantly subscribed. Your humour is so good.

I used to have Minecraft on my psvita slim it was that game built me as a child and I still love the game today. This video just gave me a plethora of experiences and memories so TYSM

Your videos are made really well, I can't believe you're a small KZfaqr

Really chill video! I can only agree with the people praising you. For some constructive feedback; I feel like you could make your audio slightly louder and maybe play around with the tempo of your voice (like slightly longer pauses sometimes)

I used to love Minecraft PS Vita. My PS Vita was my main handheld game console for a long time, and being able to play Minecraft anywhere was amazing. I only have good memories from it.

My Minecraft childhood was on this version ive managed to get my main world on to my steamdeck and still find my self playing it

Your a amazing KZfaqr I remember playing on the ps vita a long time ago it’s fun and nice

Your videos are fun to watch and good quality so I’m surprised your small

No, the Switch is absolutely an handheld console that can also be plugged to a TV. That’s because the actual handheld itself contains all the hardware, and the dock is literally just a piece of plastic with a power cable and an HDMI port.

Ad hoc mode uses the PS Vita's own wifi to host the network, rather than using LAN, so it'll work out and about with no modem. I believe LAN support existed in some PSV games, labelled as "local play". Extremely cool video, nonetheless. Absolutely neat to see someone even TOUCH Vita Ad Hoc! Though one other thing I'll say is that OLEDs aren't inherently superior; although generally true, modern LCD LED panels can achieve brighter whites because their light emitting components are much larger (on a an OLED, they're always rhe same size as a pixel.)

They removed the save transfer because Playstation descontinued the feature of transfering files from your VITA to a PS3. Any kind of file.

i remember looking super forward to this coming out and wanting to get a whole vita just to play it

I remember playing hours of this edition back in 2014, waiting for the updates for console edition and playing right after updating, i loved playing online with friends while talking to them on the party app, i really never enjoyed minecraft the same after i stopped playing this edition

i remember having a group of friends on psn and playing this for hours i remeber playing this at night on a school night being told to get off the ps3 only to upload a save of it and take it to ps vita gosh time has changed i still keep my vita in purse still in grate condition as well

I can't even express how bliss it is when I play Java Minecraft on my Wii U, i feel so cozy, a really weird feeling of being alone in a decaying world.

I love this version and have so many good memories with it.

I remember playing mini games a few years ago and getting good enough to use the d-pad with my upper thumb and use my lower thumb to move the left analog stick

I played it so much and then lost my world and i haven't been the same since

I played the HELL a outta this version. I was so stoked when it was released.

What helped during the battleminigames on a Vita console was the touch screen allowing you to quickly access items much like pocket edition

i remember the ios minecraft. no survival and a very barebone creative map. it was the worst before it came to xbox and all the copy cats were there (total miner being the best after castle miner z). it was crazy to see the minecraft era. i miss it sm

This video made me found out half the kids never used the activation code that comes with physical copy Tried the code on my random used copy I got a year ago and it worked, great, haha

Minecraft Psvita was my childhood thats where i properly started playing minecraft i had played on the PC and my friends Xbox but this is where i played much more of it

I used to play this! very nostalgic

This is my favorite version!!! I still play it.

I love this version still. Play it with my college friends at dorms

I've spent infinite time on the PS VITA Edition until I stopped playing in 2018 since my screen broke. I finally fixed the screen though last year and I've had a blast revisiting worlds. I left them all untouched though and created a new world which I still play regularly

bro i remember playing this version on quarentine while listening to sewerslvt, good times

Man this is wild to me, I started playing minecraft in its early stages, around the time Nether was added, and actually bought the game a bit before Wolves got added and so I spent most of my young age playing minecraft on the best version, I never knew the console versions got official minigames :D

I'd give anything for these days again. The transfer feature got so many modded worlds over to my ps4 and the memories i made with people won't go away anytime soon.

I remember playing this version cuz my uncle had a PSP so I used to play this and I also used to play killzone long car trips. I miss this version of the game

fuckin love your videos, excited for you to be on everyone's recommended :P

Ngl, I almost cried on the bus watching him roam the tutorial world, I remember my first time playing Minecraft on my ps3 roaming this tutorial world and I wish I could go back

I love this edition and i started playing it in 2020, it has touch screen support to make it for the lack of buttons (take that switch edition) and you can even play music while playing this game, it might have smaller maps that the 3ds edition, but runs 100 times better.

Great video, love the legacy console editions🙂👍

It’s so cool , I have it and it’s awesome. I was actually able to join a game online a couple months ago

Good video Bro, Just subscribed

wow.. this brings back a LOT of memories

I remember playing this all the time, whew good times

This was my obsession back in the day for a solid 7 months

Man I still miss my OG Vita. 3G OLED model. Kept it for years until I had to sell it because I could not afford groceries one month.. I still miss that thing dearly.

used to play this so much back in 2016. this game revived the vita communnity for years until the switch came around

I remember playing this version a ton when I was little

4j studios got to cook slightly longer on the PS4 and managed to make village and pillage so it's the best console to play legacy console on

Lots of fond memories playing MC on the PSVita

I loved this game as a kid on the vita. I always played on the demo. Good times

I played PS3 edition and the big problem was having a really small map in Minecraft standards. After a while you find the end of the world. At first I didn't know why this was but then I found out legacy console versions had a smaller, limited map. Was really sad after that.

"Hell on earth. Death to Notch." Got me lol

That moment where us Minecraft console players found out we were getting hunger games is a core gaming memory for me

I thoroughly enjoyed Ps VITA edition throughout it's life. I played it from pretty much physical release in Europe till the end. I loved the first versions on Minecraft Ps VITA. In this I am talking about 2014-2016. Near the end of 2016, when the big heavier updates designed for pc came around to PS Vita, you really saw the PS-Vita stutter.. a lot. I recall waiting !!5!! minutes to load the Update Aquatic tutorial world, and it being absolutely unplayable. Despite this, I loved every moment of it. I played via Ad Hoc with friends on the bus, at home through PSN (which, like the PS3, allowed you to play online WITHOUT Ps Plus). There was something about it you know, it had this vibe to it.. I played hours on end on this edition. My most favorite activity was playing survival SADLY (yes, there is a SADLY) my Ps-Vita died by cooking itself in 2018.. all my saves lost. The only remainder of it in my home are the games, which were Minecraft, Rayman and for some reason the very bad Lego Marvel game and screenshots I uploaded to Ps Vita facebook

I love this version of Minecraft. Prior to its updates, it was the only version of Minecraft that plays Aria Math in Survival Mode, which makes me come back to this version more than others.

I played the PSVita version for HOURS, I remember playing the LBP crossover endlessly, it's so nostalgic for me.

13:31 i managed to modify the last update for both the psvita and ps3 that adds the transfer worlds feature back in a effort to bring back my childhood world. but it didnt work due to ps3 and vita requiring to connect to external servers that have since been taken down

Actualy, now we have community addon called minecraft:enhanced. And now it's more playable.

yesss i used to play on my vita all the time. the only time i noticed it struggling was when i made big noteblock builds or i built a bunch of statues and they wouldent all load at once towards the top other than that more than playable i also dident remember any frame drops

This guy is my new favourite KZfaqr his tomadachi video was hilarious

I was REALLY impressed with this back in the day. It WAS a portable version of the full Xbox 360/PS3 version of the game.

the PS Vita to PS3 world transfer (and the PS3 to PS4 transfer) was removed because they shut those servers down a while ago. perhaps they weren't used too often? i know the Xbox 360 to Xbox One transfer is still up and running, and if you're running on the newest Xbox 360 version it'll let you transfer directly to Bedrock on Xbox One, but who knows how long that'll stay up for

I highly agree on your sentiment about the switch not being a handheld console, as handheld games were always made with not only their spec limitations but also portability in mind, because in all the 5 years of owning a switch I consistently used it on tabletop mode with friends, but id never consistently play it as a handheld and even when i tried to use its never left the impression to me as one even sitting completely unused on some trips. Long live homebrew on old handhelds i guess

My childhood... This version is a decade old this year

holy damn you are underrated i thought you had like 50k+ subs before i looked at the sub number

Man I remember playing Minecraft when it first dropped on consoles was big hype back then and I just remember the memories with friends from school after then the updates got even more better but now there’s way to much content which is good but I’ll give it a miss nowadays

Thank you for the video, bro. You're pretty funny

Really glad people still talk about the vita edition. Genuinely my favorite legacy console edition of minecraft.

i loved this version

Was that a baby zombie riding a wolf?

Coincidentally i just plyed Minecraft on my PS Vita a few days ago for nostalgia. The biggest issue i had with it was the delay between placing blocks and the blocks actually showing up then lol

I've spent many hours on this version. Literally my childhood

I laughed a lot, thanks for your funny video

I used to play so much Minecraft on the PS3 edition, the minigames were great for only 8 players
