Minecraft: PS Vita Edition - Lost In Obscurity
Ойындар
Today, I look at Minecraft: PS Vita Edition. Probably the most Minecraft for PS Vita of any Minecraft that's on PS Vita.
For anyone who thinks I sound like an AI, I use Adobe Audio Enhancer because I have a crummy mic. Saving up for a better one though.

Crazy how 4J Studios managed to make this port to a 2011 handheld and still have it be better than Bedrock edition is in 2023

bedrock is a mess of semi unoptimized gameplay imo. I grew up on tu11 and tu14 so im very much of the opinion that those versions are better than bedrock

Never in my life I'd ever expect a popular Minecraft youtuber to ever acknowledge the existence of Minecraft psvita. Heck, some popular KZreadrs think that legacy switch edition was the first legacy console edition to be played on the go.

wym lol java is still the best version
fun fact: all of the menus and the hotbar also allowed you to use the touchscreen to navigate them. so theoretically, if you mastered that, you could probably have a decent advantage over most folks playing battle mode
as someone who spent thousands of hours as a kid on the ps3 playing Minecraft, it made me cry remembering the minigames on legacy. Those were probably some of the best moments I have ever had in gaming, spent with my friends, forming bonds with random people then crying because my parents said I couldn't friend them. In all, thanks 4J for some really cool features.

something to note about the performance of the latest version is that it only got worse AFTER 1.13 was introduced (Which wasn't even supposed to be implemented). It was a fairly stable 30fps before that. Also pretty sure save transfers were removed due to servers going down; they worked by storing the worlds on a server.

Its still a showcase of how amazing the Vita was and how dogshit the 3ds was in comparison. The 3ds version of minecraft runs at 10 fps, at a way lower resolution, and lacks more features. Vita runs Minecraft with all of the features the big consoles had at the end of their lifecycle and with just a bit worse performance.

This is why I stopped at 1.12.2. It got so much worse afterward and I'm really happy to stay at 1.12.2.
Quick correction: The PSvita you show at 11:34 is the 'slim' revision model, which did not feature an OLED screen.

I remember I got a vita because I wanted to play little big planet. Not long after though it was announced that Minecraft was coming to it and I got it for Christmas. Being about to play Minecraft on the go was incredible. I even made a pretty nice creative world. The vita was such an underrated console
I grew up with Minecraft on the Xbox 360, seeing those hot bars, the mini games, the very tutorial world I started off on brought me back. Amazing video, thank you.
I miss the console legacy edition so much. I have so many memories of the tutorial world and the mini games that bedrock edition could never get out of me
I remember when I finally got my vita one of the coolest things about it and this game was that if you had a ps3 version you got the vita version for free. Really made getting a vita worth it at the time for me since I had so many cross compatible games.

I'm not gonna lie to you, this video led me to get a PS Vita, and while I've played quite a bit of Minecraft on it, it led me to play a ton of games I never even considered playing, and eventually led to me finding one my new favorite games, Persona 4. Seriously never expected to find all these amazing games when I got this thing, it's seriously one of my favorite handhelds to play on and I've found myself unable to put it down as of late. Thanks for introducing me to this console !!

If you get Minecraft digitally from the Vita store, it gives you the option of whether or not to download the update. I purposefully don’t have it so it runs better lol
I actually lucked out with the Vita Edition. I got PS3 Edition used from GameStop a couple weeks ago, noticed the download code, and kinda immediately wrote it off as "it won't work". After watching your video, I decided to try it because [intrusive thoughts], and somehow it worked! So now I have PS Vita Edition. ;u;

I love your humor and the video overall was great! I remember back in my elementary school a boy had a Vita with Minecraft! He was playing in the tutorial world, and if I recall correctly he was in the area with the lone tree that was near the big Minecraft logo. Ever since I saw that, I wanted a Vita JUST to play Minecraft. Looking back on it, I think I was justified to have that thought. 10/10 video

Bro this was such a trip down memory lane, like my god i remember playing this allot because i didn't buy a ps3 or 4, and i remember all the little moments here and there, i especially loved the Minigames and remember the hunger games styled one foundly, i loved the sand/pirate ship map and the elytra and snow tile minigames

No, the Switch is absolutely an handheld console that can also be plugged to a TV. That’s because the actual handheld itself contains all the hardware, and the dock is literally just a piece of plastic with a power cable and an HDMI port.

My Minecraft childhood was on this version ive managed to get my main world on to my steamdeck and still find my self playing it
i remember looking super forward to this coming out and wanting to get a whole vita just to play it
I love this version and have so many good memories with it.
I remember playing hours of this edition back in 2014, waiting for the updates for console edition and playing right after updating, i loved playing online with friends while talking to them on the party app, i really never enjoyed minecraft the same after i stopped playing this edition
What helped during the battleminigames on a Vita console was the touch screen allowing you to quickly access items much like pocket edition
i remember having a group of friends on psn and playing this for hours i remeber playing this at night on a school night being told to get off the ps3 only to upload a save of it and take it to ps vita gosh time has changed i still keep my vita in purse still in grate condition as well
wow.. this brings back a LOT of memories
Man this is wild to me, I started playing minecraft in its early stages, around the time Nether was added, and actually bought the game a bit before Wolves got added and so I spent most of my young age playing minecraft on the best version, I never knew the console versions got official minigames :D
Minecraft Psvita was my childhood thats where i properly started playing minecraft i had played on the PC and my friends Xbox but this is where i played much more of it
Ad hoc mode uses the PS Vita's own wifi to host the network, rather than using LAN, so it'll work out and about with no modem. I believe LAN support existed in some PSV games, labelled as "local play". Extremely cool video, nonetheless. Absolutely neat to see someone even TOUCH Vita Ad Hoc! Though one other thing I'll say is that OLEDs aren't inherently superior; although generally true, modern LCD LED panels can achieve brighter whites because their light emitting components are much larger (on a an OLED, they're always rhe same size as a pixel.)
Really chill video! I can only agree with the people praising you. For some constructive feedback; I feel like you could make your audio slightly louder and maybe play around with the tempo of your voice (like slightly longer pauses sometimes)
It’s so cool , I have it and it’s awesome. I was actually able to join a game online a couple months ago

Ngl, I almost cried on the bus watching him roam the tutorial world, I remember my first time playing Minecraft on my ps3 roaming this tutorial world and I wish I could go back
I'd give anything for these days again. The transfer feature got so many modded worlds over to my ps4 and the memories i made with people won't go away anytime soon.
This was my obsession back in the day for a solid 7 months

I love this version of Minecraft. Prior to its updates, it was the only version of Minecraft that plays Aria Math in Survival Mode, which makes me come back to this version more than others.
I used to play this! very nostalgic
I remember playing this version cuz my uncle had a PSP so I used to play this and I also used to play killzone long car trips. I miss this version of the game
Lots of fond memories playing MC on the PSVita
I highly agree on your sentiment about the switch not being a handheld console, as handheld games were always made with not only their spec limitations but also portability in mind, because in all the 5 years of owning a switch I consistently used it on tabletop mode with friends, but id never consistently play it as a handheld and even when i tried to use its never left the impression to me as one even sitting completely unused on some trips. Long live homebrew on old handhelds i guess
Man I still miss my OG Vita. 3G OLED model. Kept it for years until I had to sell it because I could not afford groceries one month.. I still miss that thing dearly.
I remember playing this version a ton when I was little
i remember the ios minecraft. no survival and a very barebone creative map. it was the worst before it came to xbox and all the copy cats were there (total miner being the best after castle miner z). it was crazy to see the minecraft era. i miss it sm
I love this edition and i started playing it in 2020, it has touch screen support to make it for the lack of buttons (take that switch edition) and you can even play music while playing this game, it might have smaller maps that the 3ds edition, but runs 100 times better.
I was REALLY impressed with this back in the day. It WAS a portable version of the full Xbox 360/PS3 version of the game.
Thank you for the video, bro. You're pretty funny
I thoroughly enjoyed Ps VITA edition throughout it's life. I played it from pretty much physical release in Europe till the end. I loved the first versions on Minecraft Ps VITA. In this I am talking about 2014-2016. Near the end of 2016, when the big heavier updates designed for pc came around to PS Vita, you really saw the PS-Vita stutter.. a lot. I recall waiting !!5!! minutes to load the Update Aquatic tutorial world, and it being absolutely unplayable. Despite this, I loved every moment of it. I played via Ad Hoc with friends on the bus, at home through PSN (which, like the PS3, allowed you to play online WITHOUT Ps Plus). There was something about it you know, it had this vibe to it.. I played hours on end on this edition. My most favorite activity was playing survival SADLY (yes, there is a SADLY) my Ps-Vita died by cooking itself in 2018.. all my saves lost. The only remainder of it in my home are the games, which were Minecraft, Rayman and for some reason the very bad Lego Marvel game and screenshots I uploaded to Ps Vita facebook
Man I remember playing Minecraft when it first dropped on consoles was big hype back then and I just remember the memories with friends from school after then the updates got even more better but now there’s way to much content which is good but I’ll give it a miss nowadays
I loved this game as a kid on the vita. I always played on the demo. Good times
Being able to run java edition minecraft on the steam deck with shaders and mods is amazing
This video made me found out half the kids never used the activation code that comes with physical copy Tried the code on my random used copy I got a year ago and it worked, great, haha
yesss i used to play on my vita all the time. the only time i noticed it struggling was when i made big noteblock builds or i built a bunch of statues and they wouldent all load at once towards the top other than that more than playable i also dident remember any frame drops
I remember playing this all the time, whew good times
My childhood... This version is a decade old this year
the PS Vita to PS3 world transfer (and the PS3 to PS4 transfer) was removed because they shut those servers down a while ago. perhaps they weren't used too often? i know the Xbox 360 to Xbox One transfer is still up and running, and if you're running on the newest Xbox 360 version it'll let you transfer directly to Bedrock on Xbox One, but who knows how long that'll stay up for
OH MY GOD THE SOUNDTRACK BRINGS BACK SO MUCH NOSTALGIA
Instead of getting a smartphone like everyone else my age did at the time, for Christmas of 2016, 13 year old me asked for a psVita. We didn't have internet at home and I never got an SD card to expand the possible storage, so Minecraft was the only game I could play. I have very fond memories of this version of the game. Despite its very obvious technical drawbacks when you revisit it today, this port of the game was the main reason Minecraft is so important to me today. I often go back and even take inspiration from younger me, that had so many charming ideas for his world that weren't bogged down with modern standards for building or playing the game. I'm glad I had this.
I've spent many hours on this version. Literally my childhood
Nah this was my shit, coolest kids playin this one in class, I remember how dope it was when I got the ps3 version and found out later it had the code and it still worked💪😤
13:31 i managed to modify the last update for both the psvita and ps3 that adds the transfer worlds feature back in a effort to bring back my childhood world. but it didnt work due to ps3 and vita requiring to connect to external servers that have since been taken down
I played PS3 edition and the big problem was having a really small map in Minecraft standards. After a while you find the end of the world. At first I didn't know why this was but then I found out legacy console versions had a smaller, limited map. Was really sad after that.
Just wanna add that the Switch Lite does kinda fit the description you gave. It's a lot smaller and is only usable as a handheld. It doesn't have detachable controllers and is just one, smaller, solid unit. It's a little bigger than the Vita and not quite as pocketable, but I wouldn't and didn't 'pocket' the Vita either since I didn't wanna damage the analogue sticks. I've loved the Switch Lite so much I sold my Vita finally and that thing was beloved to me. I hope someone is out there, putting it to good use.

I actually considered that and something odd is that the original Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition (console legacy) doesn't support cloud saves with NSO, but the bedrock Edition on switch does. Since console legacy on switch was discontinued before the Switch Lite came out, you'd have to have bought the console legacy while it was available on the Original model switch, then bought a Switch Lite, and then sign in with the account you bought it with and even then, your saves would be stuck on the Switch Lite.
Really glad people still talk about the vita edition. Genuinely my favorite legacy console edition of minecraft.
I played it so much and then lost my world and i haven't been the same since
I was playin this online like 5 days ago and I made a new friend, surprisingly there are lots of online people there
This shit is funny as hell but also accurate at the same time.

4j studios got to cook slightly longer on the PS4 and managed to make village and pillage so it's the best console to play legacy console on
