Did you get it? I've never tried any of the Ys series before.

You can try asking any game shops. They usually have their own or connection with another repair areas. If it's just the analog, it shouldn't be too expensive since the analog itself isn't that expensive.

Try asking the repair price first. If it's near the cost of a new PS Vita (or a used one), you may want to buy that instead.

My last purchase of PS TV was around last year I think, bought it from 11street. Try checking it out over there.

I bought mine for 399. KB Gaming Zone.

Well, what I can say is PS Vita TV is not exactly a PS Vita.
Quite a few number of PS Vita games are not playable on PS Vita TV, unless you did something with it, and that still doesn't ensure 100% compatibility during gameplay. I bought PS Vita TV not to play PS Vita games actually, and now it's pending due to my PC sudden death. -.-"

I really don't recommend PS Vita TV unless you're clear on what you want to do with it. Just buy a used PS Vita 2000 would serve you far better I think.

I see, meanwhile, you can browse lelong/mudah to see other vendors that may provide you the repair service. I found one on Mudah :

The thing is, PS Vita is easy to repair, once you can get the parts as most of the parts are screwed rather than glued together. You may refer iFixit or any other guides to open it up and try to find the parts on AliExpress such as these :
1) https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-ps-v...lcd-screen.html
2) https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/PlayStation...a+Teardown/7872

1. Yes you can. You should be able to clear the data by long pressing the game bubble and select the options related to clearing data.

2. It probably can't, but you can try. The simplest way to get it on the PS Vita is to download it directly using the PS Vita. If the game cannot be found using PS Vita, you probably need to use a PS3 to download the game.

Sorry to hear that. From looking the solution on youtube, I can only find that reformatting the memory card would be the solution to the issue. You can try searching Youtube, there are 2 videos that might help, one is from Good Game Guys and the other is from latestvitagames. Do try and check em. Their videos are on the top of the list if you type in "psv C1-2741-1", at least in my case.

Try the other steps first before formatting, as mentioned in the video. If nothing works, then you should try formatting, following how latestvitagames does it. Subscribing to PS+ doesn't only give you the ability to save game progress on the cloud, there are other benefits such as free games. And if it cannot before format, and can after format, you still have that advantage that you don't have to worry if the memory card choose to be corrupted again. Anyway, I hope you find a way to solve the issue and keep us updated.

I understand, and I too find it quite baffling that Sony didn't also backup the save game when they backup the game using CMA, not to mention that there isn't an option to backup the PS Vita save games using CMA.

PS Vita is on it's last leg already, which is very sad to me since I actually like the PS Vita. It's very capable when it first launch, and it's still far more powerful than the new 3DS.

Hopefully your problem will be solved at the very least upon reformatting and accessing the safe mode step.

Yeah, PS Vita was really fast to get sidelined by Sony actually, even before the launch of PS4. It's because they have a different vision for the PSV compared to most consumer does. They first sold the PSV for more than RM1k, and you still can't play any games on the console after that unless you also bought a compulsory memory card, which is far-far too overpriced for what it does. They planned that with PSV, you don't have to rely on smartphones for social media and stuff, which means, you'll be fine with a lower spec phone, as you can do most of the things on PSV (no, it doesn't even come close).

Now, Sony really doesn't want to sell a portable console as it'll probably fail as smartphones are the centre for portable entertainment, and a hybrid console will only eat the market for PS4.

It would be great if Sony would make a new system that allows us to play our PS Vita games up-rendered to HD or Full HD, at a constant 30fps or 60 fps. But well, I do know that no PS Vita 2.0 or Pro is coming from Sony, as they definitely want to move away from this name.

They really shouldn't be doing the proprietary memory card in the first place. This is one of their biggest mistake with PSV, plus, selling it at such price.

Currently, Sony is getting traction back with their mirrorless cameras, tvs and bluetooth headphones/speakers. So I do hope they manage to get the same innovation onto their phones and gaming products too.

What mentioned from the videos are that one of the reason people are facing such issue is due to frequent ejecting/inserting the memory card. Is yours because of that?

Oh? That's weird. That means it's not undergoing much abuse in the first place. I thought it would only affect those who kept swapping the memory card, which could possibly trigger this issue.

How is it that it didn't work? You got it on the PS Vita, but it failed to launch after you press the bubble, prompting error?

Oh? It failed to see the game through the transfer system? That's new. Usually it should appear over there both on PS Vita or PS3. Have you tried checking youtube if anybody managed to transfer the game? Maybe it's due to the different region? Huhu

You bought the game on Asia PSN over on PS3 but cannot find to transfer to your same account on the PS Vita? Sometimes it could be due to different account also.

Well, before you format the memory card, just saying, can you try to install the memory card on a different PS Vita or PS TV? Maybe over there, you'll have better luck? I do hope it works though.

Maybe can try playing it on the PSP then, since you already bought the game.

Sorry to hear from both of you.

I haven't tried on another vita, but just switch back my older 4GB card which i can still play on it, at least my older games still with the game save intact in that one, but only 10% of the 32GB, well, better than nothing... Anyway, it's definitely not the Vita problem.

Not much I could do, the representative could only say sorry and invest in a new card... as for PS+, i could just stop the auto renewal, upload my current game save that i could savage, then subscribe again if I need those game save later

I just told them to do something with CMA, we doesn't need to go thru' the bullshit having to back up the whole app and have the option to just pick save data via CMA to PC! Or else, I told them straight I rather spend money to support hackers cracking their system who actually bother to find out the errors and ways to overcome the issues ! Errors pop up during gameplay is too rampant, their way of encryption & decryption really abusing the memory card and could be the reason why game or save data corrupted itself in normal play at times if the game is not properly coded. Sony doesn't bother with improving their system, and expect software dev to do so, which in the end, lacking the interest to continue as even Sony themselves giving up Vita, literally.

Yeah, I really wonder why Sony would release their Portable Console, yet stop supporting it also as soon as they can. Sony's first party studio themselves are not making much of the games for their own portable console, which is quite sad. I'm also quite glad that the homebrew for PSV does go somewhere. It at least can help PS Vita in some way or the other.

You can, why not.

Right now, most support for the PS Vita would probably be under the homebrew teams.

True, Vita is still considerable on what it can achieve for the hardware that it provides. Kinda interested to know what they'll unlock from the Vita. There is already the mod that allows you to use a microSD card instead of the usual Vita card, maybe you'll be more interested in that.

Well, also the ability to connect a USB disk drive to it also, which makes a lot of sense for PS TV case.

Not sure, you might want to check how much people are selling on Mudah and such. Last time, my cousin bought a used set for 500+ I think, and that is not with the older firmware.
