Weirdly feels like its a little short on buttons though… 🤔

    Quick, delete this post! Nintendo has already dispatched two elite snipers to home in on your position and dispose of you, but maybe they’ll fall back if you delete this quickly enough!

    I haven’t used moonlight on the vita, can you map touch input to L2/R2/L3/R3? The back touch-area would probalby be good for the triggers & L3/R3 aren’t used that often, so the touchscreen might work for that.

    What’s the latency like?

      Honestly terrible, the Vita’s WiFi chip is lousy so even with a wired PC and sitting right next to the router the lag is pretty poor.

      Also the lack of additional triggers really causes problems for a game like Zelda where you’re expected to use them a lot, you can use the touch pad but the lack of feedback makes it pretty unplayable.

      Its a fun experiment though!

        If only moonlight could use the USB connection, like vitastick.

        Do the triggers from bluetooth controllers work with moonlight? I don’t remember if you can normally connect controllers to the vita, but there’s this plugin that makes the vita think that it’s a pstv, which makes it support multiple gamepads.

          Damn, then what’s the effing point? It’s practically a mini monitor with some buttons.

            The Vita has some good games, and it has built-in support for psp & ps1 games, which is not emulation IIRC. It can be a nice portable emulation machine, especially the Vita 1000 model, with the OLED display. The 2000 isn’t as nice due to the worse display.
