Sony's joke to counter the 2DS?

It might not be compatible with all Vita games, but I feel kinda bad for whoever bought capture cards for their Vitas.

It looks like it is Japan only at the moment, so it is not to counter the 2DS, but to counter the possibility that Apple may announce a set top entertainment box similar to this on Tuesday. It will not be compatible with Vita games that require touch input as the Dualshock 3 lacks those inputs.

I was just thinking wether this would work with capture cards or not

It has HDMI output on it so you can use any capture card with a HDMI input to record.

Yeah, a Hauppauge or an Elgato would work. Not sure if it'll have HDCP on it, but I've heard that HDMI switchboxes can bypass it for the PS3.

Funnily enough, i bought a vita capture card the day before this was all announced. Do I regret it ? Nope.

All of the games i want wouldn't be compatible with it (LBP, Tearaway, Uncharted etc) and I know PS3's HDMI is protected so you can't record with it (with a large majority of capture cards, newer ones may have gotten around this) I can only assume PSVita TV would probably be the same.

This is a great bit of kit, kinda confusing who this is targeted at, as a lot of Sony's own IP can't be played on it, but hey, if you don't care about games that use touch/gyro/mic/camera Vita TV is awesome for youtubers, specially as its a great way to record PSP content (yes you can hack your psp like i have to record, but idk i find that super inconsistent)

Just my point of view. I also don't care about the new vitas, no added functionality aside from internal storage, which as I plan to import a 64GB card asap.. Let's hope i get my vita soon

The new, lighter/thinner Vita also doesn't seem like a great idea. The downgrade on the screen is a turnoff, and frankly, for the power it offers I don't see the Vita as being that big.
