The '''PlayStation Vita''' ('''PS Vita''') is an eighth-generation handheld game console by Sony Interactive Entertainment, released in Japan on December 17, 2011, and in North America on February 15, 2012 and retailed for {{Inflation|USD|249|2012}}. It had a quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore at 333 MHz (Boosted to 499 MHz when overclocked) with one of its cores reserved for the OS, 512 MB of RAM, 128 MB of VRAM, a quad-core PowerVR SGX543MP4+ GPU, which can push 133 million polygons onto the screen every second at a clock speed of 166 MHz, and a custom sound and image processor called Venezia. It also features most of the [[PlayStation Portable emulators|PSP]] hardware, but it's been officially used only for backwards compatibility purposes.

The '''PlayStation TV''' ('''PSTV''') was a microconsole released by Sony in 2013 that essentially served as a home console version of the PlayStation Vita handheld gaming device. It allowed users to play a large library of PlayStation Vita games on their TVs. In addition to playing Vita games, the PlayStation TV offered remote play functionality, enabling users to stream games from their PS4 consoles to their TVs. While the PlayStation TV was initially marketed as a companion device to the Vita, it was discontinued in 2016.
