@noiob Ooh, nice. This reminds me that I need to get around to setting up my PlayStation Classic. Was gonna try transferring my PSN purchases to it from my PS TV.

@jamesgecko the Playstation Classic doesn't connect to PSN

you can however hack it and just throw bin/cue files on a USB stick to play on it

@jamesgecko also uh

the PSTV probably has a better emulator

@noiob Correct and yes. But also, the PSTV is the less reliable of the two devices. Sometimes I boot it and it's forgotten how to read the memory card filesystem. Been backing stuff up with QCMA because the PSTV seems like it low key might just stop working one day.

@jamesgecko oh, that's not good. Still, I wish I'd gotten one back when they were super cheap, there's some Vita games I'd like to check out… though I guess a Vita would be better for those

@noiob I love the PSTV's tiny hardware, but an actual Vita is 100% better. I got my PSTV at $60, and it's incompatible with basically every big Vita release I was interested it. 😅 It's now my flaky PS1/PSP machine.

Follow

@jamesgecko iirc hacks can enable it to play games that haven't been officially cleared but obvs they can't give it a rear touchscreen and stuff
