Yes, bought one a couple months ago for PS4 exclusively - remote play is unbelievably good, and mandatory PS+ for PS4 online means a steady stream of free vita games too. I also jumped off the fence because old OLED model becoming rare - If I was going to get one, I wanted that before it's impossible to obtain brand new. Argument could be mad for the new model too however, it is thinner, lighter and buttons are (even) better.
It's superb, recommend 5*. Remote play is amazing - plays perfect on most titles while not taking up the TV screen, just can't put in to words how great it is to be able to play while watching a TV show or while girl is watching some crap I couldn't care less about etc. Most everything looks inredible scaled down to quarterHD OLED.
What really surprised me was the quality of the actual vita games. I've put in a ton of hours on Wipeout 2048, I'm a sucker for Wipeout. but also TxK, Hotline Miami, Virtua Tennis 4, Gravity Rush, Motorstrm RC - all these I have playeyd much more than I thought I would -and I still ahve a t least as many I have yet to try waiting to download free from PS+. PSN sales often are great value on Vita too.
For certain games the instant standby/resume is excellent. Cannot wait for that (promised launch feature) to arrive onS4. At any point it can be shutdown in 1 second, and can restart in also 1 second right where you left off mid game. PS4 standby is nothing to this.
PS4 remote from anywhere in the house is the killer feature for me though. I'd have bought it for £100 if that was the only thing it did (was £160 when I did). additional bous it works from anywhere else you can get wifi too (but for some games the latency across the Internet would be too much I feel)
Oh and it works as a (not quite so good) 2nd controller too. So I basically considered that a £45 discount lol. (dualshock4 be expensive here!)
Will prob pick up Persona 4G in the current sale, can't say it grabs my attention though I don't understand
I'd only be buying it because of the many glowing praise I've read online. I expect to not "get it", but for £12 lol why not I suppose.
