The PS Vita didn’t fail Sony...Sony failed the Vita. :(

I want another portable console from Sony... :(

I love my vita to this day. I find it infuriating that sony created such an amazing product, shot themselves in the foot through lack of publicity and overpriced accessories and then blamed underwhelming sales on lack of interest. An updated vita using today's level of mobile device power would be an absolute monster.

No ones gonna talk about how this guy presented this so well? Now that's skills 🔥👏

0:39 that sound... Just shoved nostalgia in my face

I tried breaking open my UMD when I first got it. Thought it was a case.

The fact that PSP came out when PS2 was relevant and PS3 was just coming into play, and the fact that PSP had similar graphics to the PS2 on the go was mind boggling

PSP was so far ahead of its time man. Absolutely amazing machine.

Kids now a days don't know how important the psp was for everyone's childhood

You know, I bet if the psp go was released at today’s era and partnered up with cellular companies, it would suite well.

Bro, I wasn't ready for that PSP startup.

The PSP was not shorting of mind blowing when it first came out. I was still playing a GBA advance when I got my first PSP!

If only Vita didn't had that garbage SD card ... That's what killed the Vita in the end and this is so sad ! This is why the sales were not good at all . I am sure 100% that if PS Vita had a normal SD card , it would have been doing very good even today but we can't change time .

I still use the PS Vita. I was one of the first people to hack it and now the PS Vita hacking scene has become pretty active. You can even buy "micro SD card to memory stick" converters for the PS Vita. I can play GB, GBA, Nintendo DS, PS1, MS-DOS, PSP, Sega Genesis, N64, Super Nintendo games on it. With the 128GB micro SD card, I can fit most of my favorite games on it. p.s. The proprietary memory cards were what killed the PS Vita. It's pretty sad.

The PSP is my favorite handheld console of all time. So far ahead of it’s time, insane library and holds up incredibly well to this day. I was born in 1993 so the whole PS2/PSP era is my golden age of gaming and nostalgia.

As one of the few people who still regularly play a vita, I went to Japan last year and my mind was blown to see vita games still in mainstream gaming stores

I still have my PSP 1000 and love it dearly. Can’t believe it’s been 15 years already. So many childhood memories

own both a psp 3000 and a psvita 2000 and still regularly buy games for the vita, i love me little vita

I JUST GOT HIT BY A WAVE OF NOSTALGIA THAT PSP STARTUP IS MY CHILDHOOD

I cried watching this, I still have my PSP and spending my time with it has always been the thing that has helped me through my adolescent years.

Damn I always felt PSP's were badass. So much more potential then the DS series. They just handled it wrong I feel at the start and by the time they got it down it was to late.

They can revise the system. They can stuff it with 8-16 gigs of ram, a snapdragon or Tegra X1 chip, & a large battery. Cut out phone network access thing to reduce production cost, most people use wifi anyway. Put a large battery, and contract razor for that 120hz touch screen.

This was one of the coolest videos that explained about the PSP models.

Its very rare thats I watch an entire 15+ minute KZfaq video thats NOT a tutorial. What a masterclass presentation. I love the PSP. Got one in 2011, right as I got out of high school. Just bought a secondhand one online to use for emulation. I never played the PSVita but would sure love to try.

Is youtube broken? There's no way this guy can only have 27k subs...

Despite never owning a PSP, I got the Vita myself. I really do have fun with it as I always enjoyed the games that were available. From Assassin's Creed III Liberation, Gravity Rush and my JRPG games. The Vita deserved more love. I do hope Sony continues in the handheld system but if not then it will be an end to a great era.

The PSP proved that u don't need high end graphics to sell a portable console unlike the Vita, u need a library of games, Nintendo realized that, that's why they are on top

I remember well begging my mom to get me the PSP in 2007. Ended up getting the package that came with ATV off-road blazin trails and lords of dog town movie. The PSP was future in the early 00’s. Kids now a days have no clue... the PSP was the iPhone of our generation. I actually went and bought a 1000,3000, vita, and the speakers you could mount your PSP on.

A PSP 3000 running CFW and expanded SD is the best handheld of all time. Mine has over 300 PS1 games, 100 PSP games, and thousands of NES SNES GB GBA and Genesis games. All for under $125. You can’t beat that...

Sure was a gaming era and I'm glad I was apart of it all and got to experience it when they were all new! Recently got my old psp and vita out of storage and began playing them again, brings back so many good memories! ☮

Picked up a psp 3000 and a 2000 vita recently. I can confidently say they're outstanding handhelds. I really slept on both these consoles as a kid and it's a delight to have them as an adult. Nice, detailed presentation dude. This ruled

It was ahead of its time🥺

I really enjoyed this video. The quality and presentation was fantastic.

In 2004, I still remember how dang advanced the PSP 1000 was. It was high school and still two years before the iPhone but this thing was like somebody shrunk the PS2, threw in an iPod and gave it advanced features you just didn’t find anywhere else. It was incredible.

I like how through the psp sony was just like: "WHAT DO YOU WNAT FROM US PLAYERS?!"

Amazing video!!! I have the Vita 2000 and it's great. Learned a lot about the PSP with this video, and was truly surprised that the original PSP had WiFi and could access the PS Store.. I didn't even know there was a PS Store back then.

For me, PS Vita is also my favorite handheld system so far. It's so handy/lightweight (in comparison to the Switch) and it had so much potential with the touchscreen in the front and back and the camera! Love Tearaway for trying out all the features the vita had!

Ps Vita was basically a phone but with built in emulators I never liked it but I respect people who do no hate, I mostly liked the old psp handhelds.

the dreamcast and PSP were the only consoles i can remember that truly blew my mind when they released. the dreamcast had internet capabilities at a time when internet gaming on a console was foreign as hell... unique,and genuinely fun games,and the VMU in the controller... then the PSP came and made gaming/media on the go so much fun. Music,Movies,Games,internet,online gaming,awesome indie and third party games,the ability to play classic PS1 games on the go,THE MODDING.... this little beast was my go to handheld when i first came out... and still is.

I can't believe those bastards just gave up. I've always been big on handhelds and I always prefer sony to nintendo when it comes to gaming.

anyone remember opening the UMD door fixes the psp if it doesnt boot up or if a game freezes? 😂

I enjoyed the PSP for years and have only come into Vita ownership in 2023. Wow what a console. It links to my PS4 controller and is a brilliant unit with so many good games. Thats led on to me purchasing all the PSPs now. This video helped me decide that I wanted to get every one and I am pleased I have. Thanks for this informative video.

This might be my single favorite video on KZfaq. It’s so good I find myself returning to it regularly, and the quality is so high. Thank you for giving the PSP the respect it deserve!

Oh and it was also a handheld porn device!!! For people that did not have phones.

I can't seem to find this in the comments, so... *The PS Vita Didn't Just Die, it Was Murdered*

I remember being so excited about the vita. It was truly the perfect portable device. So sad Sony failed it

Dude I just want to go back in time to when I had my PSP (still have it now). Endless hours of GTA Liberty city and LUMINES. Then came the modding scene and the next thing I was playing Sonic Advance 3 again and pokemon emerald. The PSP was way ahead of its time and its functionality left the DS in the dust. I had so many fond memories of that powerful device. Also just recently got a Vita second hand which luckily came with a game and I also got LUMINES electronic symphony, loving it so far. It's too bad that Sony have left Nintendo to own the handheld market. I'd love to see them try again.

PSVita was the best. I bought one even though I was discouraged about the memory card with it being so pricey. was still a good buy and I wish I still had my PSVita. with the success of the Nintendo switch Sony should really rethink about updating the PS Vita or making a new portable.

Damn! You got them all in white! Looks so good

Imagine how powerful a new gen PSP would be in they made one now. It was so ahead of it's time when it first came out while gameboy was playing 8 bit games. My phone has a 1440p display I bet if they made a new PSP it would be a power house

With the introduction of smart phones and apps, consumers had to decide weather to get a smart phone or a psp. The decision was clear. With the advent of smart phone and the impatience of Sony the demand decreased. But, I believe that if they were to revive this device, they would sell well in this time. Wonderful history lesson. Well done.

man i love your presentation, its so clean and done well!

I have a 3.65 Henkaku Fat PS Vita and love it to death. Beautiful OLED screen, amazing games, confortable responsive analogs, it's the best handheld gaming console by far. And as it's hacked, you can play PSP, Nes, SNes, Genesis, CPS-1, CPS-2, etc, games on it.

Playing Monster Hunter Portable 3rd on the PSP is just the best memory i have. Playing with my friends and beating elder dragons and claiming the loot is just amazing.

That psp boot up sound is just so classic and nostalgic!

The Vita is an amazing console, and thanks to hackers, it finally showed much of its true potential. When people talk about console hackers in a bad way, thinking they are mostly for piracy, I'd point people to the amazing job they've done with Vita. SD2Vita to replace the expensive Sony memory cards, Moonlight, VitaGrafix, LOLIcon, udcd_uvc for video output and capture, the addition of analog controls on some PSP games as well as using the second analog (NOT the default sony implementation. Real analog controls and even remapped functions), Adrenaline basically makes you have 2 systems inside of just one, completely emulating the PSP's XMB. This along with all the emulators available for PSP and VIta, that you can use in a single console, makes it my favorite portable ever.

I love how he demonstrated the e1000 street series psp umd door's poor quality😂🤣

I love both my PSP and PSV dearly especially with all their utility and forward thinking.....but also seeing them waved around so casually made me anxious after my PSV broke 😂

Sony/PlayStation: Aight PlayStation Portable we out Nintendo: *$WITCH*

I just realized that the ps3 was like the psp but on the big screen

Awesome! I love handheld consoles and videos/documentaries about it.

Ah yes. Vita and PSP were my favorite handhelds and still they are. I still have them thank God.

This video was what introduced me to the PSP, my favorite console by far. Thank you so much TNVGAMING!

I always wanted one when I was a kid but my parents never got me one 😭

I want a ps vita 2!! 😭 Theres rumrs the ps5 comes with a "tablet" to work as a mobile device to play games. Kinda like switch

Thanks for the PS Vita nostalgia. I got it at a pivotal time in my life and I have so many good memories with it back in 2014

I'm amazed you kept your PSP collection in such good condition. Mine are scuffed and scratched from my childhood lol.

Even though I have been a subscriber to your channel for a long time, somehow with my busy work schedule I missed this video--so glad KZfaq recommended it to me so here I am admiring your all-white handhelds. I'm in love

I got a PSP 3000 back in christmas of 2012. I remember playing Call of Duty Roads to Victory and GTA LCS. Unfortunately I accidentally erased my saved files. Now my PSP is somewhat broken where you if turn it off, it won't turn back. So I have charge it just turn it one. Anyways it was good times planning to fix it soon.

The psp is still my favorite handheld to date. The game catalogue and support from third party developers was amazing and holds warm memories. The only thing I didn’t like were the fragile umd cases. Imagine if it didn’t have those cases and instead used a motor system like ps3 to insert the discs. Or if it used carts like Nintendo, bypassing the need for an optical drive and enhancing the battery life. I was thrilled when PSVita was announced and said to use carts. Only the game library was lacking and I never got excited owning the system since it lost momentum quickly. Then Nintendo released the switch. But I’m into handheld gaming and very peculiar about what I want from a handheld. I wanted a full body design. Enter the switch lite, exactly what I wanted, on paper. Then I caught wind of thumbstick drift, and the same kind of screen lottery that plagued the 3DS back in the day. I lost my faith in Nintendo. They sacrifice quality every chance they get to cut costs and save a dime. And on top of that they won’t let you transfer saves to the sd card. Which means if I bought a switch lite and put 50 hours in breath of the wild or witcher 3, then get plagued by stick drift, I’ll lose my progress if I want to replace the system. And games bought from their online store save on a system, not an account with which you would be able to switch between systems in as few steps as possible. Seems like Nintendo has a way of making simple things extremely complicated. They make good games, but poor software decisions.

Why am I just now finding this video! Awesome video!

Great video! I have multiple PSPs but the 3000 is always my go-to. I do notice the scanlines but the quality of the screen is so much improved I truly can't complain. It's a great trade off, and I still use my PSP regularly. I do also own a Vita, which I bought used, and only played a couple of the exclusive games on it (like Gravity Rush) before the memory card situation became too much of an issue. I think if they had just stopped being stubborn and offered a version of the Vita that took some form of SD card (even if it was in addition to their format) the Vita would have been a success. I do hope for another handheld from Sony and I hope they focus more on accessibility than anything else.

PSP 3000 The best HD graphics Full I really like it

I remember the old trick of taking out the UMD whilst hosting an online game like Vice city stories and giving the UMD to your friend who didn't have the game so he could load up and join. Of course it only lasted until you had some kind of loading screen but it worked for a decent amount of time on certain games :)

I had that exact Star Wars battlefront edition PSP

You forgot to mention that PsP e1000 (Street) didn't have a brightness button and a mute button. And how mushy the membrane of it is, and how hard it is to press.

I still have my psp 3000 and its still amazing, i love it too much

The quality of the video was what people call AWESOME or AMAZING.....

The PSP remains my favorite handheld and game system of all time. So many years of greatness.

What a solid, professional and informative review. Loving it my man. Super badass👍👍

My complaint with the PSVita is that it doesn't have as many games because the lack of extra shoulder buttons.

I owned the PSP 1000 series, 3000, PS Vita (OLED) and PS TV, which basically was a Vita in a dock. I actually got my Vita as new unsold stock in 2016 for £109 with WipEout 2048 and a 16gb card. It was the best time too, because everybody had loads of Vita games and accessories that they were happy to get off of shop shelves or give away as unwanted Christmas presents. And let's not forget modding, or how well it runs PS1 games...

I have the first gen vita and my gosh, I booted it up for the first time in years last week and it's the best thing I ever did. So many great games and memories with it.

I really would LOVE another PSP. I literally brought my PSP (can’t remember if it was the 2000 or 3000 series) everywhere I went. With how fast technology is evolving, Sony can make a PSP with great specs and atleast 256 gb of on board storage, maybe possibly making it a competitor to the Nintendo Switch.

I miss my PSP 3000.. Its not working anymore. Its just there in my drawer, resting.

I’ve had a PSP since I was around three or four years old and to see this vid almost made me cry looking back at all the fun times I had not only with the PSP but just in general back then.

The most amazing hair and beard on the internet I dare say.

god only knows how i love my psp! im still using it since 2008,defitnily worth the money i spent at that time

If it had Regular SD card Support and more AAA Games i'd be a beloved handheld, i remember wasting money on this shit and having a total of 8 games to play.

God...I used to play with my PSP when I was a child. The nostalgia hit me so hard right now. Funny story: My first game was Spider-Man 3 and I was really excited about it. So I start playing and after the menu, when of course you need to press X or the arrows to navigate the menu, i enjoyed the introduction video and then was finally my time to start playing. I can clearly remember that I was trying to use the arrows to move Spiderman but it wasn't working. I was stuck on the very first moments of the game, so excited about playing it and I didn't know what to do. After a really long time for a child, (30 minutes was like 3 days) I tried to use the stick and it worked! The funny thing is that I used to believe that was some sort of speaker for the game audio. End. I can almost hear the sensation of put the UMD on the PSP. Thank you man, great video!

Love both my PSP and PS Vita. Fun systems alongside the DS/3DS. Together you can't go wrong with portable fun!

Had a PSP and launch PS Vita. I missed the Vita so much, I just imported a unit from Japan

This guys hair is IMMACULATE

I revied my old psp 3003 given to me by my mom when a was a kid and it made me remembered that psp is something that will never die in my heart

I got one of these recently and it's my go to portable, even above the analogue pocket

The PSP Go is the only PSP I own and I absolutely love it! It's perfect for emulators and the size is great!

damn, this was my childhood. :(

All the Playstation portables were so ahead of their time I cannot believe they made the decision of having those memory cards. Really hope a new one comes out because the mod scene on the vita has been incredible.

This is the first of your videos. thank you for being honest and giving us the numbers. definitely subscribing for more videos.
