プレイステーション・ヴィータ, Pureisutēshon Vīta

     Jadi kemaren-kemaren ini Amelia sang Methuselah pemilik blog sebelah, minta direviewin(?) PS Vita. Yah, lumayan banyak juga game yang bisa dimaenin di konsol penerus PSP ini, meskipun game-game yang lebih populer masih banyak dirilis di saingannya, Nintendo 3DS. Oh ya, penggemar P4 juga mungkin bakalan pengen maenin P4G yang dirilis di konsol ini.

         PS Vita bentuknya mirip sama PSP. Layar di tengahnya berupa touchscreen kapasitif OLED berukuran 5 inch (130 mm). Terus ada 2 stik analog, touch pad belakang, kamera 0.3 megapixel depan-belakang, mikrofon, dan speaker stereo. Benda ini juga punya Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, Wi-Fi, kompas elektonik, (dan 3G + GPS receiver yang khusus untuk PS Vita versi 3G). Kedua kameranya punya fitur face detection, head detection dan head tracking. PS Vita menggunakan prosesor ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore untuk menjalankan sebagian besar aplikasinya dengan RAM sistem 512 MB dan VRAM 128 MB. Berbeda dengan pendahulunya, Vita menggunakan software LiveArea berbasis touchscreen sebagai user interface.

            Selain itu, PS Vita juga punya kemampuan backward compatibility. Ya, jadi kalian bisa maenin game-game PSP di Vita (yay?). Namun, game-game yang tersedia terbatas pada yang tersedia di PSN. Jadi, gamenya cuma bisa didownload dari sana (yay...). Beberapa game klasik PS1 juga bisa dimaenin di Vita dengan update sistem software 1.80 yang telah dirilis pada tahun 2012 lalu.

         Tidak seperti UMD di PSP, software untuk PS Vita didistribusikan pada PS Vita game card. Isi kartu ini 5-10% digunakan untuk save data dan patch. PS Vita sendiri tidak kompatibel dengan SD card. Storage untuk memorinya menggunakan memory card khusus PS Vita yang tersedia dengan ukuran 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB dan 32 GB.

         Untuk batereinya, Sony telah mengkonfirmasi pada event TGS 2010 bahwa baterei PS Vita akan bertahan sekitar 3-5 jam gameplay (tanpa suara, tanpa network, dengan brightness default), 5 jam untuk video, dan 9 jam untuk mendengarkan musik dengan layar mati. Tapi kabarnya telah diumumkan juga akan ada baterei eksternal untuk ini.

           Sebagai tambahan, PS Vita dapat digunakan sebagai second screen device PS4 untuk streaming langsung konten PS4 ke PS Vita. Sony juga berharap untuk membuat game-game PS4 bisa dimainkan di PS Vita. Yah, looking forward to it deh. Beberapa kritik muncul untuk PS Vita ini karena ga ada aplikasi killer dan harganya yang terlampau mahal, baik itu PS Vita-nya sendiri maupun memory card-nya.
