    I can't decide what to do with these two games I bought that are unplayable unless I irreversibly unhack my Vita and update the firmware.

    I've already gotten offers high enough to cover what I paid for them, so it should be simple... I replace Steins;Gate 0 with the PS4 version, and Atelier Shallie... Well, I really don't wanna trot out my PS3 anymore, and it does have less content than the Vita version, but that's always an option.

    And yet it's so hard... I haven't sold a game in like 8 years. The thought of parting with these games and possibly never being able to own them again....

    At least there's a hacked version of Steins;Gate 0 out there that does run on hacked firmware... But then I'd just have this sealed copy of Steins;Gate 0 in a tub somewhere, until I unseal it just to put it on a shelf, never ever getting played for as long as I live. That's not what physical media is about!

    There is another option... I could sacrifice my PS Vita TV. But chances are I'll run into another recent Vita release that doesn't support it, and I'll just be left in the same situation again.

    So what do I do? Buy a second Vita? No, that's too pricy, and updating the firmware would still feel like a massive waste. PS Vita TVs are still cheap and readily available on Amazon.com, though... Do I buy a second one just to play these 2 games, and possibly a couple more visual novels?

    Arghhh!!! I can't do it! I don't know! Help me!

      Editing … This is satire, isn't it.

      Editing … Partially, but also a legitimate dilemma of mine. Anyway, I'm proud to say I've decided to get rid of them. My Vita collection was never all that impressive anyway and my Switch collection has already overtaken it. I'm gonna stop buying Vita games (with the exception of maybe Deemo, but I *really* want a physical copy of that for Switch to go along with my copy of Voez) and focus on Switch.

      Editing … Weird, I didn't get a notification for your reply. I only saw it because I wanted to comment a second time to compliment you on your craftsmanship. But I also knew it had to have been based on an actual dilemma, otherwise how else would you have thought of it in such detail. ^_^
