Homebrew Running On PS Vita


Submitted by Demonchild; January 09, 2012

PSP extraordinaire Wololo who's actively working on getting his Half Byte Loader going for the Vita has announced that he has managed to get a number of homebrew playable. Among the list of homebrew are a number of emulators and other games such as Wagic and Spider Solitaire. Just like the starting days of the original PSP, the unsigned code is hitting hard on the Vita.

Here is a list of homebrew currently playable via the Half Byte Loader:

  • snes9xTYL
  • Bookr
  • CSPSP
  • T.O.M.E.
  • EmuMaster
  • Zombie Crisis
  • Wagic
  • cavestory
  • Picodrive
  • Spider solitaire
  • ScummVM
  • Daedalus
  • FCEU-PSP
Wololo does note that syscall emulation does not work on the Vita which means that not every homebrew is expected to be 100% playable. To assist with the teasing, Wololo has posted a video of the Half Byte Loader and homebrews in action on the Vita. You can check that out below.
