Heads up: new incoming Ninja release for TN-V on Vita 3.01
Despite releasing no less than 4 exploits last month, we’re seeing a growing number of people asking for a new exploit release in order to run Total_Noob’s TN-V on the Vita 3.01. Dev Mathew_Wi on our /talk forums was kind enough to share with me details on an exploited game he is willing to release in order to bring TN-V to even more users.
That’s right. If somehow you missed the 4 previous announcements, or if you got your Vita for Christmas recently and just found out about the TN-V CFW, or if you lost the previous exploits by mistake, this release is for you.
Let me get the cat out of the bag and say that this is not the “perfect” release, there are a few issues (in particular, the game is not available in all locales, I strongly advise people to create an account on the US PSN, and if you need to be convinced read here how PSN Games in other locales are 50% more expensive), but it should be considered as the final chance for people who still do not have TN-V and want it (Sony will eventually release a patch in their new firmware, to block TN-V).
For those who still don’t know, TN-V is basically a PSP Custom Firmware running on your PS Vita. It does give you access to pretty much everything you would find on a PSP running a Custom firmware: plugin support, homebrew support, PSP ISO support, a wide variety of emulators (GBA, SNES, N64, Megadrive, …). The Vita’s OLED screen enhances the experience you could have on a PSP, even when you emulate old school consoles. TN-V does not let you play Vita games backups, this is a Custom Firmware running withing the PSP emulator of the Playstation Vita. Total_Noob even ported the entire PSP XMB inside TN-V, so in essence it is exactly as if you carried both your Vita AND a hacked PSP (but with a much better screen) within the same device.
TN-V requires to run through an exploit within a PSP game, that must be purchased from the PSN. When Sony are made aware of the name of the game, they remove it from their store within hours, to prevent people from accessing the exploit. For this reason, we are secretly revealing the name of the game to our community. This is why we cannot be precise about the date this will be announced, or the price of the game, or anything that could give more information than is necessary. Just know that this will be happening.
Sony will probably be releasing a new firmware for the Vita soon. We expect that new firmware to block the kernel exploit behind TN-V, technically blocking TN-V itself. People on firmwares above 3.01 will most likely not be able to run TN-V. Therefore if you are waiting for this exploit, but Sony ends up releasing a new firmware before we announce the exploit, it is strongly recommended that you stay on firmware 3.01. There are ways to access the PSN from a lower firmware, and this is what you might end up having to do in that scenario.
Stay tuned.
Still waiting. Checking every hour. Got 20$ in my psn wallet but still no news. I am really eager to find out the name of the game. Wonder if it will come out before next week starts.
i hope so…
Looking forward to this release, should finally be able to unlock the full potential of my PSvita. keep up the great work with all these great exploits!
release it already c’mon
Considering we haven’t heard a single thing since this was posted, I’m thinking it isn’t going to happen.
This is a normal amount of time for a Ninja Release. Past ones have taken even longer after the announcement.

Bare in mind, the announcement happens ON THE FORUMS. Not here. (And you need to be registered and logged in to view it.)
I agree with the last comment, it wont happen…maybe theyre waiting fir the firmware update
Or maybe it was released already and we were left out lol
If not, it would be good “team” make an announcement about it.
Many “including myself” who is accessing all the time not to miss the announcement.
They could say something about it
how fast does sony usually take it down?
in the past it has been as little as a few hours after public release to a few days.
Well, thanks for keeping my hopes up for the past 9 days, Trololo.
Unfortunately, I am flying to a remote part of Australia to work for the next 36 days.
The best part? No Internets.
So if you could do me a solid favor and keep on keeping this release a secret until early March, that would be grand.
Many thanks,
Your faithful Ad clicking revenue generator.
you don’t have a buddy that could do you a favor and dwnload it for you?
This sucks why announce a game to begin with…keep everybody waiting for this long, unacceptable!
Ninja releases take a long time, this is by design. Please read this: http://wololo.net/2012/03/05/vhbl-for-motorstorm-how-the-release-really-happened-and-why-it-happened-that-way/
That was a good read. Thanks. I think you should pin that post to the top of this blog if you can.
I’m checking the /talk forums everyday, so I’m not too worried.
Ok, I understand and my apologies if I offended anyone. Thanks to everyone involved for your hard work and I will continue waiting patiently. I just hope I dont miss it before sony removes once its released.
i think my faith is tearing me part …..
because the new FW is going out to night….
I read the firmware 1.60 is coming for the ps4, any word on ps vita update?
I await for this release
there´s no such thing like a realease for all since the game was out for “trusted” members of wololo/talk fórum even if the didn´t have any ps vita they had that Green box for over a week so probably it will be pulled soon before the public realease as wololo explained in the post from the link someone put before that is the system if you are new your chances of having the game on time is nule plus sony will reléase an update tomorrow and, if you remember what I said before people in the forum had it since 10 days more or less so obviously sony knows about it and counting that this game uses the same usermode failure as the last exploits they are gonne be patched with the firmware update tomorrow :/
If that is true I will be extremely disappointed in the system used to get the name out to people as I have bought 2 new vitas that I could not really afford at this time with overpriced memory cards just because this seemed to be the last chance to run my psp iso’s. (My PSP was stolen in a home burglary) I for one have followed the rules laid out to get the released game name and have been waiting patiently as instructed and not pestering people on the site like others. I hope that joining the forums and checking the site for weeks has not been a waste of my time not to mention my hard earned money. Not looking good for my intended birthday present for the kids 🙁
if by chance the firmware gets patched, can I still access the psn store on 3.01? I know it has been discussed before. I just registered. Hopefully there is a way around it.
what is this???

That’s THE RELEASE
Some idiot leaked it, so Mathew released all the info before it gets taken down.
If you want it, hurry up!
So here’s something to be curious about…
How is a freakin’ FIFA game out in the states but not the UK?
really…just saw it to
wololo u suck…game leaked again on your forum psp fifa 11 …Damn U really suck…
The dev of the exploit himself is the one who made the information public. There’s so much damage control I can do… he is the person who found the exploit and is free to do whatever he wants with the release. At this point he thought it was better to make the release official because of a leak. Personally I wouldn’t have done that and I think the release would have gone fine, but it’s his choice.
Wololo did nothing but try to help everyone get this, and you spit in his face for it?
*** move, dude. Like a whiny infant. Not cool.
Leaked files ..and downloads http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=37011
