Vita3K - An open source Vita emulator for PC

[Deleted member 10675]

It was about time a project like this came to life.

https://github.com/Vita3K/Vita3K

The emulator is already capable of running some homebrew:

Between Yozu and this one 2018 couldn't have started in a better way.

 

[Richter1887]

That's great. Vita had tons of great games that deserves to be played.

 

[Hopping_Mad]

So when are we getting some killzone mercenary 4k screens?

Persona 4 Golden on PC?

 

[SeacatsAndCicadas]

I can see myself putting dozens of hours in SS Delta agin, which is up there as one of my favorite games of all time and Gravity Rush would be amazing to play in 4k. But other than that most of my Vita library was already on PC to begin with.

 

[Stowaway Silfer]

OH HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Sony doesn't want to put official emulators of their portables on their console for some reason, then the fans are gonna keep the legacy alive. PPSSPP is one of mankind's greatest accomplishments and I have no doubt that a good Vita emulator on PC will be fantastic.

 

[Deleted member 10675]

I just need this for Digimon games.

 

[Thrill_house]

P4 golden? I bought a pstv, golden and freedom wars. Im up to track some gems down for emulated goodness

 

[LunaticGunstar]

It would be neat if all the old Playstation Mobile games were available to play on this.

 

[defaltoption]

Pretty awesome glad to see development on this

 

[Drayco21]

Good; looking forward to watching this develop. Love my Vita, and will love experiencing my favorite games on PC in the future.

 

[Ghostsonplanets]

Has the Vita homebrew scene developed something that works beyond OS 3.6?

 

[Decado]

I thought there are already working vita emulators? Or at least one.

RPCS3 has some extremely basic support somewhere in the code base.

Soul Sacrifice hype?

 

[Deleted member 1849]

Good Vita emulation would be great. Good to see there are people working on it.

Open source too.

What is a Vita?

Life.

 

[Herbz]

There are games for Vita?

 

[bangai-o]

Does developing an emulator always begin with Quake or Doom?

 

[EdgeXL]

While this is a great thing, developments like this just depress me because it reminds me of how badly Sony dropped the ball with the Vita. Only Sony can get a pass for halting big budget game development for their console a year and a half after it launches.

 

[newtonlod]

I have a Vita but prefer to play games on a big screen. (I have a 3DS too but I'm waiting Citra to get better to play some other things that I didn't played yet).
So, good news for me! :)
Persona 4 is one of my favorite games on PS2, would love to play the Golden version on my PC. I bought the Vita version but never even booted it I think.

 

[Tambini]

Trying to think what would be good to see in HD, Killzone, Uncharted..uhh

Everything runs Doom and Quake, so yes.

 

[Eblo]

I recently thought about my Vita's inevitable hardware death and being unable to replace it. I lamented losing to the ability to play one of my favorite games, Soul Sacrifice Delta, due to the lack of an emulation scene for the Vita. This is good news.

 

[Deleted member 11093]

I hope they put a lot of effort into making P4G playable first and foremost, pretty much the only reason I'd ever use it.

 

[chandoog]

Persona 4 Golden is the in game I'm interested in the progress of.

Only when I can play it and any vita games portable at higher resolutions on say a phone. Vita is life.

 

[sinonobu]

Playing P4G again in higher resolution would be awesome. Excited to see the progress.

 

[ApeEscaper]

After thinking a lot only worthwhile game i want to see emulated well from Vita is Soul Sacrifice Delta.

A special one that should be preserved

 

[Strike]

It finally happened. Though I suppose after henkaku it was only a matter of time.

 

[Shaneus]

Oh man, seeing Vita referred to in past tense still stings a little bit.

 

[Knurek]

So, I'll soon be able to emulate Persona 4 Golden on my PC and stream it via Moonlight to my Vita?
Good.

 

[i-Jest]

How will fan translations fit into this?

 

[Alexander DeLarge]

I look forward to Soul Sacrifice and Golden Abyss being preserved in its definitive 4K form.

 

[Richter1887]

Man this platform really has amazing games. Shinobido 2, Soul Sacrifice, Killzone Mercenary, Uncharted, Unit 13, Murumasa Rebirth. ..

These games should not be forgotten.

 

[rtv190]

fuck yes, hopefully this opens the door for better 3DS and more progress on Switch emulation too
(btw, does the dev intend on opening a Patreon?)

 

[-shadow-]

Can't wait to try Golden Abyss in higher resolution. If Sony doesn't do it, well than I'll do it like this!

Soul Sacrifice was boring.

If you are looking to add more emulator threads we now have ones for Cemu and RPCS3 as well.

Even better if it had a high framerate.

There are already some fan translations that work on the actual Vita, so they should work on this eventually I'd assume.

 

[Deleted member 1067]

Even if it's the worst version of the game, PLEASE GOD let this result in Ninja Gaiden being preserved...it would break my heart to see the game eventually fall into the sands of time.

It won't be forgotten any time soon, because the superior version is enhanced for XBox One X.
