and against all odds it still exists in 2017, but why?

So this is the newer 2000 model of the Vita

and because of that it has a few different tweaks

with this weird proprietary Sony charger,

whereas this guy should work with basically anything.

they pretty much only sold the Vita in black.

I know there were some white special editions,

but the orange actually looks pretty cool.

the Vita actually has some pretty cool features

and one of the biggest one was the five-inch touchscreen,

which definitely was a huge upgrade over something

It also had a revolutionary feature of dual analog sticks.

but compared to its predecessor, the PSP,

with what you'd expect out of a portable PlayStation.

So this is very similar to what you would find

So some games would actually allow you to not only touch

from the front but also touch from the back.

It was actually a really cool idea back in the day.

and the first thing that jumps out to me is the interface.

in that you can scroll through your different pages,

kinda just swipe it away if you don't want it anymore.

It's actually a pretty slick way of doing things.

You get basically everything you would expect to see here.

but you can also do things like activate the camera,

This may not seem like the best front-facing camera

So the PlayStation Vita supported AR games

and it was kinda ahead of its time in a lot of ways.

Inside, the Vita actually had pretty decent

512 megabytes of memory and a five-inch display

The only downside was the screen was actually

a slight downgrade from the original Vita model

compared to IPS on the newer 2000 models.

such as this is smaller, comes in more colors,

the Vita actually had a huge technical advantage.

and even though it was the better console

in a lot of ways, it did not sell anywhere near as well,

With the Vita topping out at around 15 million sales,

Now there were a lot of reasons for this,

that the game library was much stronger on the 3DS,

but we'll talk a little bit more about that in a second.

But Sony also made some very questionable decisions
