My PS Vita finally died, but is it worth buying another in 2018?

"I’ve been a huge fan of the PS Vita ever since it launched back in February 2012. Maybe even borderline obsessed with it. Sadly, I awoke this morning to discover my original OLED PlayStation Vita had suffered a terrible fate. Now I have to ask myself a question, is it worth purchasing another PS Vita in 2018?

Oh no! I wouldn't buy another if mine died. I'd just be really sad. Or I'd pay the fee to have it sent to Sony for repairs.

If you like it and want to continue playing it, why not pick up another?!

My battery has started messing up. It’s had a good run but it’s not over.

Buy a new battery on eBay for $7. That's what I did. It's sorta tricky to replace though. This video helped me replace my battery: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

If you really like it why not,probably be cheaper shipping it back to Sony.

Mine still works but the headphone jack doesn't. Should probably get through my Vita backlog eventually. Still have a functional PSP though, so hopefully my Vita lasts for quite a while.

Good luck trying to find a Vita brand new with out paying a stupid price a used Vita would be good to own for a back up. Personally I would just send it to Sony and have them fixed it do that and you have warranty with their work. The Vita still does have a great library and there are still games popping out for the little handheld.

They still sell them new at play-Asia.com without a stupid price. https://www.play-asia.com/p...
I guess you can only get the OLED ones used now though.

Not Imo. Just wait for Sony to make another Portable PS and care your entire game library.

Got my vita since 2012, still works great.

Cool Brett.. also lets hope Sony makes another handheld of some sort.
