Comparisons

  • Vita emulation in RPCS3 is a small side project by a couple of developers, it currently can only display a simple 'Hello world.'[1]

Emulation issues

The PlayStation Vita currently has no emulators; this is mainly due to the fact that the hardware has yet to be documented. Once the console has been hacked (to some degree, at least), and the hardware is well known and its functions are documented, emulation can begin.

The PS Vita's PSP part can still be hacked, but none of the existing exploits so far allow for anything useful on the PS Vita side. Yet. Please forget about those PSP/Vita emulators for PC Sony like so much to use in their trade shows. It's incredibly unlikely for those to get leaked.
