I’m catching up on SKFU’s recent releases, as I was myself busy with VHBL. A week ago, SKFU released “Vita pr0xy”, which is now updated to version 1.0.1. This is a network proxy (runs on windows), so basically an intermediate between your devices and your internet connection. Although this is a general purpose proxy, SKFU designed this tool specifically for the PS Vita. It can filter out some specific requests, sniff the traffic between your Vita and the network, can do URL replacement, and as a bonus, fixes some malformed requests sent by the Vita.

That was fast! Following our discovery yesterday that the Honk Kong version of Everybody’s Tennis was different from the 3 other ones, wth got to work and adapted VHBL to this version.
I haven’t tested this, but hopefully people who bought the HK version of Everybody’s Tennis can confirm if it works.
WTH also hinted to me that he might be able to get rid of the current limitation on the European version of the exploit, in which people have to switch the language of their console to French before running VHBL. Stay tuned.
Enjoy!

Last Month I blogged about the Humble Bundle, a great initiative to let people pay whatever they want for cool indie games. Today the 2nd Bundle for Android is here. The concept is simple: you pay whatever you want (even 0$ if you suck), and get 6 indie games for your Android (tablet/phone), but also windows, Linux, and Mac. Those are DRM free so you can copy them to all your devices, and you get to decide how your money is split between the devs of the game, charity, and the Humble Bundle team (who provide the promotion of the event as well as the bandwidth).
I jumped on this second bundle as one of the 6 games is a full RPG for Android which looked pretty cool: Avadon.
Christmas is really early this year, as Drakon, creator of the famous PSP homebrew Lamecraft, just posted an update of his game to make it compatible with the Vita.
Of course this requires you to run VHBL, but since we just released a new version of our homebrew loading tool, hopefully you are one of those who can enjoy it.
Check this video running the game on the Vita Screen:
Thanks to the great work of wth, here is the long awaited second release of VHBL. Those of you who missed the Motorstorm exploit probably had a chance to grab a copy of Everybody’s Tennis before Sony pulled it (let’s be happy, they gave us a bit more than 30 hours this time, last time was 8 hours). If not, well stay tuned, there are still other PSP user exploits lying around, and I’m sure something will come eventually.
Developer Dridri (who created the open Idea iso loader for the psp a year ago) is now looking for Beta testers for a tool that aims at replacing Sony’s CMA client on your PC.
If you are lucky enough to be one of the few owners of Motorstorm Arctic Edge, VHBL is now available for download.
Please report Success/Failure here or on our forums.

For those who don’t know, the idea of the Humble Bundle series of indie games is to let you pay the price you want for a group of high quality independent video games. The offer is usually limited in time (it lasts only a few days), and is a great deal. This time, the Humble Bundle people decided to give some love to mobile gamers. The games are cross platform (Android, Linux, Mac, Windows), without DRMs (you can install them on as many machines as you want)…
A few days ago, we released Wagic 0.17.1 for the PSP, Android, iOS (iPhone/iPad… now that a jailbreak is available on the latest revision of iOS, you have noe excuse to not try Wagic!), and Windows.
Thanks to the work of Xaw Otihs, this new version of Wagic is now also available for the Nokia Platforms Maemo and Meego (respectively, the N900 and the N9/N950). That release of course gets all the bug fixes and improvements that we described in the 0.17.1 release. Read the rest of this entry »
I just got contacted by Virtuous Flame who informed me that PS Vita update 1.52 is available (which is confirmed on the official site), and as for version 1.51 back in December, this update is compulsory if you want to use some services such as the PSN (which makes sense) or the possibility to copy files to your Vita with the Content Manager (which doesn’t).
