Thanks for guide. One thing i think you should add the guide is that some systens may required bios to run properly.

Awesome video. Great to see you back uploading videos regularly.

[Connorwall]

Super helpful, thanks. I've set up retroarch before but always had issues with the data folder and organizing the games. Achievements is pretty awesome too

[lucienfranssen]

I really appreciate you, i have learned so much about the vita because of you,
Im going to try and mod my vita this weekend now that i have all the memory cards in the vita adapter, and i got a 256 sd card, now im wondering if i should have gotten a bigger sd card like a 1 tb sd card, with all your showing it can do, i dont know if the 256 is big enough, i love rpgs, jrpgs, driving games, first person shooters, novel type games, cartoon style games,
Not going to put sports or fighting games on it, because not really into those,

But i was reading you can add movies and old gaming magazines to it also, which i love the old game magazines, i have watched alot if not all your modd videos, do you have a video on adding old game magazines, I f not could you do one,
I going to follow all your tutorials on jailbreaking my system, because i feel its the best out their, you take your time to explain them, where others go so fast,
This will be my first time doing any of this, alittle nervous, cause i dont want to make a mistake or wreck the video..lol

One last thing, thank you for all you do, i appreciate it more than you know, please never stop doing it..
Sorry this was so long but i had to say what i feel, im so greatful for finding this channel. 😊😊

Great video! I've been stumped on how to install Arcade and Playstation 1 to my PSVita. If you could give any assistance, that would be greatly appreciated!

[sismilin]

Thanks. Loving your content. You helped me mod my Vita. Where are you getting roms? It's a minefield.

[StarlitDancingWaves]

I downloaded it from the VitaDB downloader and yeah it wasn’t fast but it seems to work. One minor problem that it has though is that the app’s icon on the home screen is blank as well as the menu before you open the app (just like when you unlock the vita with HENlo)

[coreybenoit]

6:14 my icons won't show up after the scan

[holada]

Every time I scan a game, it finishes the scanner and doesn't show anything new as if there was no game, even though the notification shows the name of the game and says the scanner is complete.

[jkiddkilla]

Amazing videos you been making bro, you got a discord group at all??

[Sneaky_racoon_sly]

Vita DB Is recently not working Shark food is always closing

[eternalglow]

Is it possible to setup all the roms in Retro Flow and when I open them they open in retroarch? Or is this not possible

[tillyvick]

Thank you as always! I was able to get my older version updated to 1.20.0….. however I’m not able to get the step involving copying the data file to work…. It’s as if it won’t overwrite the previous data files when I try to move the new ones in.

[Tingtongmacadangdang]

Is it normal that after I moved the 7 files, RetroArch takes a long time to start? Starting games is also very slow. It takes 16 seconds

[FORTEtheSECOND]

Thank you for this. I would certainly appreciate it if you could confirm whether PC-98 runs on Vita RetroArch.

I managed to get *Neko Project II Kai* (perhaps the best PC-98 core) running on PC and the PS Classic (the mini) so I am hoping the same applies to the Vita.
