A less functional Vita in 720p;
11 of 23 found this helpful It has a limited number of Vita titles due to functionality concerns, pixelates PSP titles making them feel cheap and unappealing, requires a costly dualshock 4(in an attempt to mock the touch pads of the psVita), requires a PlayStation Network account to use the proprietary memory cards which MUST be activated on the system in order for its data to appear(unless you're satisfied with 1gb onboard memory), and of course it can utilize almost no streaming services including, PlayStation music, Netflix, FXnow, HBOgo, and so many others.
It DOES offer PlayStationNow: A healthy library of PS3 games that can be rented at great cost if your broadband internet connection is worthy of Sony's approved bandwidth capabilities. For a seamless integration of games you can't keep longer than a cumbersome $17.99 duration of ninety days.
Highly recommended for little ones, Vita fans that want a 720p experience for whatever reason, as a remote access drone for your PS4 in another room on your wi-fi network, and collectors of Sony's folly.
I read all of the negative feedback for this little guy, and just had to make the mistake for myself to believe that something so redundant(and unfinished) could be sold. Hopefully this will help you decide to go with a PS4 for a more immersive media console experience.
