A question about vita firmware and new games.

Post by katmeow »

HI,

I'm currently running on 3.18 cause I don't have the luxury of time to go thru the tutorials on how to update to 3.60 and get the psp cfw on the vita. So my question here is, anyone has any idea if I were to get a new game, say released this earlier this year, around may.. Will the cartridge require me to install the new firmware, or will it allow me to still run the game on 3.18 fw? Any input in this would be greatly appreciated!!

Any new game from earlier this year you're definitely going to be prompted to install a newer firmware of 3.61+, as 3.60 firmware itself came out in 2016. There's no way around that for physical games. Updating can be done manually on a vita rather simply, and shouldn't require too many steps to do so.

As for getting epsp firmware for I'm assuming Adrenaline that's also easy as well. There's easy installers for every version of Adrenaline which will download the necessary 6.61 epsp firmware files.

Anyways here are the necessary resources for each item:

Manual update process for vita firmware 3.60: http://wololo.net/2016/08/09/manually-u ... ware-3-60/

6.61 Adrenaline 5.1 easy installer: https://github.com/Freakler/vita-Adrena ... /tag/v1.15

Doing both processes shouldn't take longer than 15 minutes.
