Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

Got one of these for Christmas (wife is awesome) and I've been hooked.

I love Guacamelee - what a freakin' awesome game.

Any instructions on how to use the DS4 with the Vita AND keep yourself signed in to access all your saves?

Everything I am seeing online either doesn't work or signs you in as a guest.

Yeah, the Vita is awesome. Here are some instructions on using the DS4 on the Vita for remote play:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/691087-playstation-4/67995516

Hope is makes sense and what you were looking for. Not official from Sony but people have claimed it works. I just dont want to go through the hassles of formatting and resetting my vita all the time when I want to use my DS4 on my vita for remote play. If I had another Vita I may try it but ill just wait for the vita TV to drop here in the states if I need to use another TV in my house.

Everybody get KillZone: Mercenary, now.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

Anybody know anything about metal gear solid? I figure that Killzone and Sly Cooper should hold me for a while.

Wow that's crazy. I'm copying here so I have it for reference:

Finally got remote play working on my *main* account with the DS4 (great for playing your FPS in bed or when the missus wants the TV back for the soaps etc!)

You'll find similar help online but I struggled a little getting them to work without losing connection when switching to main account. Finally I figured a sure-fire way to do it. Not sure if it's easiest way but hey, it works if you're prepared to rebuild your Vita database*. This was you can play DS4 via remote play avoiding all the awkward button associations and still get trophies/saves etc to your main user. It's pretty awesome actually.

1. Set up a second account - I just used an existing second PSN account. (sub accounts may also work).

2. Log into this non-primary account on the PS4

3*. If your Vita is associated with your main PSN account (where you hold your saves/trophies etc)
I restored the Vita to default. Of course, if you want to retain your Vita stuff, you may need to see if there is something else you can do here - ultimately though you just want to disassociate your Vita with the primary account on the PS4 - that is key to the solution I used.

a) Turn the Vita off, then holding down the on, PS and RB for a few seconds get the Restore menu.
There, I chose to "Restore the PS Vita system" option.
b) Follow the steps and when you can connect back online, log into your *secondary* PSN account on the Vita.
c) On the PS4, go to the Vita connection settings and activate the Vita using the 8 digit code.

4. Once done, go to remote play on the Vita and you will eventually see the PS4 screen as normal. At this stage, only the Vita controls will work for the remote operation.
Now, hold down the PS button for a few seconds on the DS4 and switch user so your main account is linked to the DS4 now. A few notifications will come up. Now, press the PS button again on the DS4. You'll notice the account switches to your main account and DS4 is fully operational on both PS4 screen and Vita!

5. Play Remote play on your main account using the DS4 instead of the Vita controls

Don't forget to enable the Power Saving options to enable your Vita to connect to the PS4 in standby and etc so you can boot it up whenever you wish. Settings/Power Saving/Set Functions - checkbox all 3 options.

You'll also want to look into ensuring the Vita screen does not timeout and dim.

I also read if you setup the Wifi on the Vita to connect to the inbuild PS4... address, lag is non-existent. Not sure of the range but good for a room or two perhaps.

I'd be interested to know if there any short cuts to this but once set up, it's really straightforward.

Don't think I will go through all of that but either way thanks for the post!

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

I don't follow the vita that much but didn't a new version get released in Japan??? Thinner, more memory etc??

Is this coming to North America ? If so, what about a price job for the older vita's??

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

They probably won't bring the 2000 here until the original's stocks are near gone, I wouldn't expect any sort of clearance pricing anytime soon.

There are some things about the 2000 I really don't like, and losing that OLED hurts. The only thing I would consider a real improvement is that standard USB instead of the proprietary connector, everything else I find to be of little consequence compared to the pros of the original.

There is a $100, 64 GB memory card that is still exclusive to Japan.

The memory card situation may be the Vita's biggest downfall.

The prices are simply too expensive for such little storage space.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

I love remote play. I just can't use it that much. It really sucks that I'm 20 ft away from my PS4 and signal is so low, remote play won't function correctly. The signal range is horrible.

New promo goes live tomorrow:

Hmm. I've heard of Dustforce at least. All things DBZ are a giant "meh" to me. Probably not gonna get much out of this promo.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

OlliOlli is fantastic so far. Easily the best skateboarding game since the original SKATE.

I will be picking up TxK as well, as Jeff Minter games (Tempest 2000, Space Giraffe) rarely disappoint.

Dustforce is fun, but I would suggest getting the PC version instead.

I don't think there has ever been a good Dragon Ball Z game released in America.

Actually that DBZ demo is kinda fun. I'll probably pick it up. Never was a fan of the earlier games.
