Message: [QUOTE="sun0wl, post: 172482, member: 133365"] [ATTACH type="full" width="309px" alt="1744588570924.png"]57869[/ATTACH] (this ad didn't age well, but it had its heart in the right place) O PSVita, my beloved. Let me count the ways I love thee... You were an absolute beast for emulation through through the 5th generation of consoles (minus all the N64 games with compatibility issues on Daedalus lol), plus the whole PSP/Vita library. Sporting a gorgeous OLED screen that was way ahead of its time (how many years did Nintendo take to get on board?), you were more portable than any handheld on the market today without sacrificing too much visual real estate. And tragically, in the end, you were a victim of circumstance and Sony's own criminal negligence. But to some extent you live on, all thanks to the amazing homebrew community who have extended your lifespan and evangelized your versatility for retro gamers on the go to this day. Last but not least, and perhaps best of all...you had Wake Up Club. [MEDIA=youtube]Sbb3q3N5YIQ[/MEDIA] I unironically used Wake Up Club for at least a year straight and am still distraught that I never managed to Platinum it. It was genuinely cool to "wake up" with other people around the world and get PSN trophies for not hitting snooze. For me, it was the closest Sony came to competing with Nintendo's knack for creating unique, gamified social experiences that spark joy. Today, I (also unironically, somehow) use the Alarmo, but it just isn't the same as a lifelong Sony sicko. I want to wake up to the dulcet tones of Crash tornado spinning crates or Cloud slicing a Shinra guard in two, not Bowser having indigestion or Peach making questionable noises. Alas...Rest in Peace, Wake Up Club Online. Rest in Peace, PS Vita... [ATTACH type="full" width="270px" alt="blingee RIP.gif"]57871[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
