[Solved] Is the Vita capable of running a PS2 emulator?

Post by Vita90 »

When the Vita's fully hacked would the experts here say it's either possible or not for such a thing to happen? The Vita games definitely look almost as good as PS3 ones so it's above PS2 standards but would it take too much work for a group/person to develop a PS2-Vita emulator?

I'd really love to play PS2 games on my micro-console PSTV. It's so tiny yet it has a ton of games inside! :)

But the Vita's more powerful than PS2, is it not?

It doesn't matter if the vita graphics look almost ps3 level PS vita and PS2 have completely different architectures and emulateing ps2 would require 10x that of the ps2 (or so I've heard) Is the ps vita even close or up to par? most pcs have trouble running it at full speed so I doubt it honestly.

Hm, thanks. That's a shame, though.
