The issue I'm having is the PS button, the Start button, and the Select don't seem to work at all. I didn't really notice at first because I haven't been playing any games just messing with settings, etc. The circle button and X button are switched on Japanese versions so I kind of thought maybe something was up with those three buttons as well (they weren't needed, they functioned differently, etc.). Then I realized on certain menu pages I had no way of going back. I got stuck and would have to shut off the Vita to get back to the home screen. Then I was doing something that required me to press the Start button but nothing happened when I did. I can't enter Safe Mode because like I said the PS button doesn't seem to function. All of the rest of the buttons (power, volume, four face buttons), D-Pad, Joy Sticks seem to work fine. I don't know about the touch pads because I don't know of any way to test them.
My question is what could be wrong with the Vita and is it fixable? What should I be looking for? Is this something I could fix on my own as a novice? Is there something I would need to buy? If so what (part name/number)? Etc. etc.
Any help you guys could give would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so very much in advance.
