  • Update: PS Vita Firmware Update 2.05 Now Reported Live

    Be warned that the PS Vita firmware update is now live. Little is known as to what features, if any, this update will bring. But one thing is for sure is the likelihood of Frostegator's UNO CEF TN Port for firmware 2.02 being patched. (And of course any other released exploits.) Please note that this update has being reported as a mandatory one, so PSN/SEN is a thing of the past. Unless you update of course.

      Is it already possible to play VITA games on the PS Vita?
      Only homebrew and PS1 games so far?
      So i guess it's not worth it, right? I mean, considering that i would buy it only because of the playable(working) ROMs.

      That is just a coincidence though. Firmware 2.02 was out over 1 month ago. This can happen to any firmware update on any device, it depends on how frequent you use it.

      Out of curiousity, why does it pisses you off? For me, these updates takes about 5 minutes or less to do, and they occur relatively rarely. I could see the annoyance if it was several times a week and if the firmware update took 30+ minutes every time, that is why i'm curious why it pisses someone off (not just you, i've seen others say the same thing as well).

      You cant directly bypass the firmware updates, but you can choose not to update the firmware and use OpenCMA. This way you can transfer files from your PC/Mac to the Vita without having to update the firmware. However, this means that you wont be able to connect to PSN (since it requires the latest firmware) and not be able to play the latest games if they require a higher firmware that you have installed.
