- Vita3K (compatibility)
- 1121 (55%) out of 2037 tested titles that can be played from start to finish with playable performance and no game breaking glitches. This is the best and only Vita emulator for PC and Android. Also just like JPCSP's XMB emulation support for PSP system, Vita3K has partial support for PlayStation Vita OS.
- Vita2hos
- An early compatibility layer for Nintendo Switch that runs PlayStation Vita applications natively. Only able to load simple test homebrews such as vita-8 as of December 2022. Appears to only be developed every once in a while.
RPCS3
The RPCS3 developers once considered adding Vita emulation support, going as far as displaying a simple 'Hello world' and a basic atomic test sample.[1] However, Vita development was completely halted since then and focused exclusively on PS3 emulation down to the website's branding. A Patreon post admitting as much asked users whether they are still interested in Vita emulation. Significant further developments on Vita coming from RPCS3 aren't very likely considering the general lack of developer interest, and those like frangarcj, who went on to join Vita3K. The RPCS3 project has since removed Vita support from the codebase.[2]
